suman, are you sure are you working on $35? If you are a DBA(Production Support) this is way too less. I do not want to say how much i get but the billing rate for the DBAs (SQL or Oracle or Sybase), should be more than $70 ( at least 70). Market is good as far as i know.

Any way good luck and if you guys want to know each other, contact me in here in Sajha and we will do formal chinjan.

Life is SQLized dudes....
