Re: PHP Developer Required

Wow! Spend $100K on a university degree in computer science, work successfully for five years with all the major technologies, and then get paid $25 per hour? My auto mechanic charges an average of $99 per hour. Sounds like a great deal for the university. Maybe the successful candidate can work off his student loans. Kind of like buying from the "company store", eh?
