If you are on a billable project but happen to have a day we’re you aren’t asked to do much, do you still bill the 8 hours for being on call. Or do you only bill the 1–2 hours you work that day on client work? Less than 1 YOE. Curious on your thoughts on billing 8 hours a day even if you don’t necessarily work the whole time. Is this something you have done? I also under stand that billing less than what you work is not ideal, “eating hours.” But what about billing more than you “actually” work

If you’re fully staffed on a project, always just bill 100% of your time to that project

I (L9) definitely don’t have to do that in myTimeandExpenses. I guess put “work” or something lol

I work 1 to 2 hours a day for my project and that's it. I keep complaining that I need more to do but nothing comes to me. I still bill the full 8 hours because I'm available for the project for the full 8 hours. That is, when I'm not taking a nap I guess
