Two thoughts:

1. Ofalyn really wanted to hurry you off the chat. Seems pretty unprofessional.

2. It's a little painful to see some of those job postings. "Virtual staff needed for long term employment -- $65". Yikes. The gig economy.

That is my first gig for VOIP company for 5$ a day that I described at the start. Just to show how I had to start. And after all that climbing, they do this.
Still, the idea that a even a "starter" freelance DevOps job could ever be $5/day, especially for a "long term" gig, is kind of depressing. It's way, way less than US minimum wage.
