Most places assume you're going to work five days a week, so that works out at a shade over £6K a month. But I suppose if divide the 250hours by an 8hour day, that's 31 (and a quarter) days - and would be just over £9K if one were prepared to work without a break for the whole contract. > I am just saying your > salary is good. But is this job only for 1-2 months? It's certainly not bad, but it is on par for Rails contract jobs in London (looking at the, admittedly too infrequently advertised roles, they're around the £250-350 mark). > If it were a > longer/long term offer, I MIGHT be willing to travel UK.

I've occasionally taken roles that have required me to commute weekly across the county, and it's certainly not unusual amongst my acquaintances to stay away from home during the week. If you've got the flexibility (and energy :-) to work for 30 days flat out, then why not go for it? I'm sure your girlfriend will tolerate you working away for a month if you take her off for a holiday when you get home! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
