But I knew Norway was high up there. Did the survey consider living expences etc too - or just pay pr hour?Nerdinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10484354258334040064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17915403.post-1145334635797851982006-04-18T06:30:00.000+02:002006-04-18T06:30:00.000+02:00I am not going to get "into it" - but I believe it...I am not going to get "into it" - but I believe it was a fatal mistake to level out countries in Europe to fabricate a superficial "Super-country" based on market driven desires.<BR/>EUROPE is not a country, it is a concept, a mind game for capitalists.<BR/>Local communities working in global harmony - not globalization dictating local communities will be the answer to just economics.Zeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02046472160770720576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17915403.post-1145287606201786942006-04-17T17:26:00.000+02:002006-04-17T17:26:00.000+02:00I fully agree Lindsay.

Having one currency didn't provide the necesarry comfort as well.<BR/><BR/>Yes, it is very Prevalent over here Anoop, even in ICT. We pay for about €100.- per hour for a good systemsadministrator or software engineer over here while in Spain he's paid €45.- (which is a thousand miles away) And still I am having much difficulties to convince our local boards that we should centralize our architecture.<BR/><BR/>If we only could start with all speaking English, that would be a major improvement.DAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03081526684421864224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17915403.post-1145285523926887682006-04-17T16:52:00.000+02:002006-04-17T16:52:00.000+02:00Interesting to know that the disparity in pay scal...Interesting to know that the disparity in pay scales is not just across continents , but even prevalent inside Europe as well...i love the pics that accompany yr posts.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05175267918470466945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17915403.post-1145272685000425362006-04-17T13:18:00.000+02:002006-04-17T13:18:00.000+02:00Interesting posts about a number of aspects concer...Interesting posts about a number of aspects concerning sustainability and Human rights in our global village. <BR/><BR/>We are all dependant on one another and every action has a reaction elsewhere which affects us. <BR/><BR/>So in your region countries need to develop ethical labour standards for outsourcing that are sustainable in those countries and fair to all. <BR/><BR/>Apart from that the headline difference is mitigated in countries with a higher taxing rate assuming its paid and not avoided. <BR/><BR/>Denmark is currently Number 1 I think in the World. <BR/><BR/><BR/>Best wisheslindsaylobehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16774918551798647046noreply@blogger.com
