Subject:Salary Surveys, my last 2 cents From:"Taylor, Steve" <steve -dot- taylor -at- ALLEGIANCETELECOM -dot- COM> Date:Wed, 10 Jun 1998 13:54:57 -0500
I agree with Julie K. Maybe we're talking apples and oranges. She is right
though...contracting rates have to be higher than employee rates. And
silicon valley must be higher than dallas! Can you buy a four-bedroom house
for $125-135K in San Jose? And I'm not talking slums...
On to other things...like earning the money I'm currently getting paid.
