I would always let the Sr Manager or Controller know I had a scenario where someone booked for Canada flight calling it cheaper and there were other flights - after couple of times he was rolled off

No way.

.

Nope.

No

No. If it's cheaper, I just send an email to whoever I'm reporting to showing that the price is cheaper.

Seriously do we have time for all that? What is the use when it's cheaper, it is win - win for all.

D1 how much more expensive was it?

Rolled off due to alternate travel or for some other reason?

That was for Deloitte digital 1

I’ve been a freelance print production designer for many years, and usually on-site in the before times. Now I work remote, and am finding it uneasy dealing with billing. Before I always billed hourly, which made sense, but it’s becoming an issue now. Some companies don’t have a full days’ work, so it seems wrong to bill full days, and it allows me to juggle projects for different companies, but my billable hours are down. I know I should bill a daily rate, but not sure that will fly. Thoughts?
