Has anyone actually found a fractional role that stays within its hourly boundaries? It seems like they are just a way for companies to get 40 hours of work out of you while paying for 10. I keep getting offered these 10 hours a week advisory gigs that somehow involve me being on-call for Slack pings 24/7. It’s not flexibility if I can’t actually take on other clients.

If it's a hourly gig you need to track time spent on everything, even for responding to Slack pings, and push back if they're taking advantage of your time. You should also make it clear which hours of the day you're available and if they ping you outside those hours you'll respond the moment you're back online. No one should be expected to be available 24/7.
