Lol are you talking about me? Honestly unless you can change that particular persons situation I'd leave it alone. They'd either quit or get fired. If you are having to compensate for them performing poorly then feel free to escalate that specific behavior to your manager since you're getting more work in the end but it's honestly w/e.

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 asked ppl at my agency but haven’t gotten a proper explanation. 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 .
