I'd imagine pre pandemic it's some form of job security and bulk discount.

I appreciate this comment. It does make me think, possibly rethink. Admittedly, I always thought the reason we got high day rates (over $1k a day) was to compensate for many days with no work. So it’d all ‘even out’ and you could afford the taxes and health care. So the logic seemed to me that if they’d hire you 10 days or more, you could incentivize them to choose you by offering a slight ‘buying in bulk’ discount. There’s also more chance of downtime in a long term project making it less stressful. But of course I’d prefer the full day rate whole period. As mentioned, rethinking this now!

Oh yeah I don’t like that. I meant bulk rate as in a slightly cheaper day rate for a certain amount of days. I would not discount on a fee with no limit on time.
