Just a measly salary.If it's worth it or not will be whether they end up paying me more for the same work in the near(ish) future or I have the skills/desireability for a different company who is willing to hand over the big $$ for what I'm doing...

Surely before you head off to training you need to do some "Preparation for Training" That's called smoko yeah? On to that right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Base salary is decent.. But every hour of O/T is paid at 50% of my charge rate for the job I'm working on.. So OT only gets paid if you can bill someone for the work you do..Sad fact was I worked bigger hours for less money in my last job but I think I enjoyed it more..
