>>12290596>Genuine question, how does a consulting fee work? Do you really get paid to answer boomer's questions on how to use git and stuff like that? What is your job like?I'm pretty it's different depending on the country, and I know it's different company to company, so take it with a grain of salt.
But I pretty much work like a normal employee only that I'm a consultant. So I'm rented to a company, where I report all my work and how many hours I put in, but then I'm payed by the consultant firm I'm employed by, and the consultancy firm is invoices the company I'm rented to. I'm the first to go the company I'm rented to makes personnel cuts, but I also have exclusive knowledge due to my consultancy firm who has a wide array of people who share they've learned in the different companies.
So no, I don't really teach private persons or anything like that (unless a private person would a company amount of money to rent me). I'm just extra peak knowledge within a company who needs, and can pay for, extra peak knowledge.
