From Samir.SARKAR@nottingham.sema.slb.com Thu, 15 Nov 2001 04:16:11 -0800 From: "SARKAR, Samir" Date: Thu, 15 Nov 2001 04:16:11 -0800 Subject: RE: OT_salary Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain Title: RE: OT_salary Well, what better could it be when I get a bus  every 5 minutes during peak hours and every 10 minutes during off-peak ?? I have visited New Jersy and Richmond in the US and I have seen that it is very difficult to commute there if u dont have a car which is the reason getting a car remains the one of the priorities for anybody emigrating there.   Samir Sarkar Oracle DBA - Lennon Team SchlumbergerSema Email :  samir.sarkar@nottingham.sema.slb.com             samir.sarkar@sema.co.uk Phone : +44 (0) 115 - 95 76217 EPABX : +44 (0) 115 - 957 6418 Ext. 76217 Fax : +44 (0) 115 - 957 6018            -----Original Message-----From: Hallas John [mailto:John.Hallas@btcellnet.net]Sent: 12 November 2001 15:35To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-LSubject: RE: OT_salary I live in UK (Leeds) and frankly I would disagree with everything you have said (no offense intended!!). DBA salary differs depending on skill and location. I would have thought that mid-level DBA for non London/Scotland  area is as you say £30-35K/annum. From contractor rates I would say lower in Scotland and London could range from £35-55K. Banks , city instititution may pay more but I am sure it is very hard getting in there. As for transport I have worked in Nottingham 6 months ago (for Logica) and I don't see the public transport system there any better than Leeds,Manchester,London etc. They are all pretty poor. Unfortunately the underlying transport infrastructure has been left underfunded and badly managed for much too long.

I am in Nottingham in the Midlands and I can assure u that the cost of living here is low compared to the US. So is true for most of the other UK cities like Manchester, Sheffield, Glasgow etc... Secondly, since the public transport system is so good in the UK, u can save money on ur car expenses if u wish to.
