As with anything else it's about supply and demand. Some folks are OK with taking less.

Also, I hope you are doing financial conversions when you talk rates. As I recall (from a few years ago) it was approximately a 2 to 1 ratio (American to UK). So I am intrigued why you feel it was rubbed in. You chose your rate. As does everyone else. David was only bringing up the fact that there are people that aren't aware of the rate that they can get and us such hurt the people that do know by lowering the acceptable rate for a given skill set. These discussions are important for head hunters to understand why they are sometimes facing a challenge filling their need when they try to pay rates that are lower than have been accepted historically. It is hard for a consultant to go from 75/hr to 50/hr. This is a challenge for anybody to deal with.

I'm not entirely sure what a 1099 is. Permanent public sector jobs in the UK generally don't pay much until you reach senior level, the trade off is we get better benefits than most of the private sector equivalent jobs. > are getting ripped off. I don't believe that to be the case. I like my current role and the organisation and the conditions and benefits. I'm learning loads and they're sending me on Remedy courses. I choose to stay and earn what it pays. _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org "Where the Answers Are, and have been for 20 years" _ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are" and have been for 20 years_ _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org "Where the Answers Are, and have been for 20 years"
