That is great.

You have proven (with figures) that your SME is comparable to your friend's GLC.

Although it is an absolutely silly post, i am sure u have convinced yourself with it and it certainly makes u very happy

Congratulations! haha.

So I calculated for her, what her "actual" salary was.

a 4-year experienced IT consultant,

Her annual based on monthly wage: 12 x $3300 = 39600
Her bonus/AWS (2011): 4 x $3300 = 13200
Her OT Pay = 0
She works 8hrs per day + 2hrs OT for free per day (THIS IS THE HIDDEN COST). Sometimes she came back on weekends, but let's don't count that

Work days in a year = about 230 days (excluding leaves, ph, MCs)
Work hours in a year = 230 x 10 = 2300 !!
Hourly rate = (39600 + 13200) / 2300 = $23 / hr

I had a job in SME sector that doesn't require me to do OT, but has very low bonus.
but my hourly rate is about $22 / hr, almost the same
