That could have been a consultant on 1 day/week to do code reviews and things like schema and index analysis (I'd definitely have to make sure that I was sure of the IR35 implications). I've spoken to a fair few local software houses who don't have dedicated DBA's and think that there may well be a place for me to do something like this, maybe offer 1 day/week or something similar to be their go to SQL expert, I could do all of the above in a day with no problems at all and it might be an interesting direction to take the career. Could even be a package of a week's time to analyse a bunch of stuff, report the issues/tell them how to fix it and then either leave them to it, offer to train their staff or take on the project myself.

I'm well aware it will eat away at profits, but that's not really a major concern at this point as I don't plan on withdrawing said profits for a while anyway and just build up the company war chest. I'd think it more of an investment than a cost, but yeah, totally not just free equipment.
