Linux Administration

[Jason]

I want to spend $250/month but I want you *available* 12 hours/day? 
Now, I can do it for $250/month retainer, billable hours at $50/hour
with a 1 hour minimum per contact. So, once you have my attention for 5
hours, you pay more. 

That's the way I would run the agreement. 

He even states an estimate of 10 hours/week. So, that translates to
$6.25/hour. 

Pretty comical. :)
