actually...most of the contracting i had done was at a negotiated hourly
rate with no intentions on either side for any long-term commitments. the
rate was based on a few simple factors...difficulty/complexity, duration,
and quality needed. other considerations were things like responsibilities,
scope, and project size.
from the language of the op, i must agree it seems an indication that this
person(s) has little experience, high expectations, and shallow
pockets...not a good combination. the least i made when contracting was $35
p/h but the work was plentiful and easy as compared to project managing at
around $95+ an hour (why anyone would hourly a pm is beyond me...but the
money was good).
i usually quote very high but i'd never consider an "opportunity"
communicated in this medium...esp. one done so in the fashion seen here.
btw, wtf is up with the "over night" hours...that's a new one to me. ;^)
