RE: Clarification and Questions Answered about My Proposal in Response to a Post by Belemo

in #hive4 years ago (edited)

Could you please provide a breakdown on the hours spent on the past work and future planned work (related to your proposal), and what would you consider to be your hourly wage? Thank you.

Sort:  

I did so in my post but can do so a bit more here. This, imo, is more of a contract style job proposal and not a hired hourly worker but will break it down the best I can:

I started full time work on the things described in my proposal on February 20th. I was actively working on the aspects listed in my proposal everyday since that time, every single day including nights and weekends. Some days may have been 4hrs.. others were 10+. I did this everyday. So let’s just go with 8hrs a day on average to get a baseline.

Past work completed
Feb 20th through now = 74 days x 8, 592 hours.
Committed Future work
Now until July 8th = 63 days x 8, 504 hours.

Total = 1096 hours total / 30,000 HBD (if fully funded and IF hbd holds its peg) = $27.37/hour.

Now for the sake of fairness I originally just estimated the work put in at 40hrs a week even though it has been more up until this point and I assume will continue to be. But If we just go with 40hrs a week instead to get a baseline for the whole time period worked and that which will be (through at least July 8th):

19 weeks x 40hrs a week = 760 hrs/30000 HBD = $39.47/hr

This of course only is factual if the whole proposal is funded and never falls out of consensus and of course the “hourly rate” depends on HBD staying pegged at $1, as we know is not guaranteed.

At anytime (if it’s approved) it can fall back out of approval and perhaps just be partially funded. This is an option if stakeholders feel that perhaps they do not agree with the full amount asked for.

Is it a decent amount of money? Absolutely. It’s also a skilled job that involved high level negotiations with large corporations as well as many other aspects. I do feel this hourly wage is inline with the work being done.

I do not feel entitled, but I feel it’s an overall fair assessment considering the community funds saved due to the work put in. I do think there should be a better way to track such hours and work and am working on a way to do that.

Hopefully that helps answer your questions.

Thank you for your detailed reply. I tend to be a numbers person so seeing this concrete data makes me feel more comfortable in considering this proposal.

Yeah Well said. If you wanna get paid, then at least clarify your past effort in man hour spent(daily wager) and the future work you are promising. And is there a line of action for future work, or we are just gonna take your good work on it?

Have you read any posts, the proposal or anything else? As I've actually covered everything you are discussing.

For me, with everything going on, it is overwhelming to read these proposals and responses etc.

This definitely sounds preposterous to many people because, how could you judge something without looking into it and gathering a further understanding.

But I understand where they are coming from in this tldr era of scepticism.

I wanted to take a minute or 2 to just say thank you for spending a lot of time help helping all our investment, and not just money but our time is not going to waste here on hive.

I will leave this tab open so I can read this later and catch up with what is going on :)
