Re: remote DBA job - pros and cons.

haha yeah working in the Netherlands, here you don't even get a junior 1ste line service desk helper for that amount. Besides Working for home is a bit sucky. I did it and you lose the contact with college's and the drive to better your self.

but if you still wanne do that, try looking on the dutch market rates fary between 70 and 85 euro's a hour and if you do it from home more like 65 euro's a hour ( contractor of cource )
