You should put in exactly £5 of work.
Open exactly one email. Don’t bother reading it; That would put you into overtime. But you can at least commit to opening the email and waiting for it to load before you clock out for the year.
The position is for a senior web engineer, so you either look at the company website and say "hmm" or you open a development app, write the HTML tag, maybe a head or css tag, then save the document.
I actually did the math on my current salary. So with converting it to USD and accounting for 2 weeks vacation and assuming I only work 40 hours a week. 5 pounds per hour is (approximately) one-tenth my hourly rate. So I would only be putting in 6 minutes of work for the entire length of the contract. Which, with my setup, amounts to sitting down, booting up, sipping coffee, and reading all of my slack notifications
Mind you I'm not a senior engineer and I'm also not paid in the top percentile
Your hourly rate is my daily rate 😭 gg man
I calculated with my salary, and it takes me longer to get to my desk.
It actually says 5 pounds PER YEAR on the application.
Saving is extra.
Honestly if you can fill out their online questionaire in 15min you've already exceeded that much work.
Don't spend it all on one thing :)
But what if all things cost £5?
Buy half of.
Do you remember what happened when Mr Bean needed to buy only one shoe?
halving fee: £2.50
"I said get something nice, not expensive"
Hey don't knock it, I'm pretty sure that's more than we pay Lemmy devs.
Actually, no. Still too little, but they do get slightly more.
nobody wants to work anymore
Hopefully they simply missplaced a zero.
Or like, at least 4 zeroes
More like 5
500,000 GBP for a software engineer in London, UK at a recruitment company is very optimistic!
50,000 is still good!
Doesn't sound good...
Just a zero? 50£ a year, final offer.
Or I guess 05£ a year.
Probably dumb like me and due the small amount somehow read it as hourly.
£5/zero years. So £Infinity/year
50£ per year? Ill hire you lmao
£50/s there fixed that.
"Put a one and two zeroes in front of that and you got yourself a deal!"
"How much did you get me?"
"One thousand pounds per year!"
And a shiny farthing at Christmas!
I wonder how much entry level get
small potato
