Hi,
I have a client that wants to pay me a retainer fee for wearing a pager
from 7AM to 7PM, Monday thru Friday.
Then they want to pay an hourly rate for any work I do for them (usual
sysadmin stuff, plus of course fixing whatever the problem was that
they actually page me for).
Kicker: I need to respond within 15 minutes of a page.
I have done lots of sysadmin work, but really do not quite understand
how to price the "wear pager and respond in 15 minutes" work.
What are *your* experiences or ideas?
