We have some EC's that charge 1/2 day for anything over 2 hours of actual working time and full day for anything over 5 hours of actual work, it must work, because they have been doing this for a long time, when i asked why they bill that way, they say what can i do with the guy for the balance of time, i still have to pay him, and my overhead is a constant.
You have to remember, any job they do is a contract price, they never quote an hourly rate.
