I got a message on LinkedIn with a job profile attached. I told the recruiter that I’m always looking for work at the right offer. I currently work 3 days a week and have 4 days off on £39.04 (a lot in the UK for you Americans) an hour in which I honestly spend 75% of my day in the break room watching TV shows.
This job profile was this, and I want you to guess what the hourly rate was. I will reply in 6 hours with an edit as to what the rate was.
