The most I earnt once was £56/hour - to sit on my bum watching others work .... and just make any decisions that needed to be made to ensure that a national building society's branch wasn't completely bugg4hed up by the work that was going on, that I'd planned and was overseeing the implementation of, via a huge screen with data/stats on it showing systems progress.
I also had to decide at what time to order pizzas all round.

I have had that experience in the past...I kept schtum about my actual bonus/payrise and just went with the average that others were getting (usually had been told to keep it quiet).We made it!
