Like $50 a month. Not the best. But I volunteer my time a lot, using my skill set to promote causes I care about, so I give more in time than $.

I take my clothes to good will like twice a year.

0% I do however drop clothes off for donations at least once a year

0

I give maybe $100. But I also devote a decent amount of work hours to pro bono stuff.

$25 monthly plus random donations (clothes and toys a few times a year)

10%

I don't donate money. But like others, I donate time to a particular cause and clothes to various places.

None unless it's for church.

5-8%

Can someone explain how billable hours work? At a new agency and although I had to fill timesheets at my previous agencies, they were mainly used to ensure we weren’t over servicing a client/for setting the appropriate retainer for contract renewals.

I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .
