I'm not, I'm in the UK -- I just gave the figure in $ cos I assumed it'd make more sense to people! It's a pretty decent wage for UK devs, for what I do. Would it make sense to work for a US company?

oh cool so let's just give up then
It's been tough. I nearly failed to pay rent, and had to borrow money from a friend to afford it. My finances have been an absolute bloodbath for nearly a decade, and I'm finally gearing up to go sober and really confront how much debt I have. It's going to be a tough year. But, on the whole, the week could have been worse! And, thankfully, a calm but enjoyable Sunday.
It's creepy that they're doing some weird religious gesture, but I think it's a lovely sign of the times that one of the freaks on the left (as we're looking at it) just has to record this emotional and reflective moment for their socials lol
Oh for fucks sake
Oh sorry lol 😂 I've got them on the brain at the moment. I read HDC in the article when reading about the home detention curfew and must've just seen HMRC lol -- edited to remove 👍
It's 20 more days, and on top of the rest of the context here it is a bit egregious honestly! It does feel like she's been put through the ringer a bit unfairly; she was sentenced to 20 months in prison, then released as part of a curfew scheme, but then right around Christmas MoJ went back on that call and took her back to prison because they couldn't find a wrist tag that fitted her, and her ankle tag wouldn't fit properly because of a medical condition.
Now, they're adding a further 20 days, which they've figured out because there were 20 days between her being made aware that she would be taken back to prison and her actually being back in prison -- despite her being ready to go, waiting to be rearrested.
It seems like either malice or a massively clumsy MoJ bungle (which, when talking about somebody's liberty, isn't really an excuse)!
Benefit cheats like multi-millionaires who exploit loopholes and avoid paying their fare share?
I don't want everything to be lowest common denominator Marvel soup though :( Not that little plastic figures are anything super precious, but the last thing I want is Space Marine Ryan Reynolds doing quips and shilling funko pops
Jobsworth in a flatcap, fuck off with your poncy beers, absolute wanker

When you say client side, what do you mean? I've worked in-house and for agencies, and the in-house pay was fine but not markedly more or less than agencies for similar roles (although it was less stressful).
