It's Kind Of Funny (In A Sad Way) When...

... you realize you have a job where working eight hours is considered a "half day."

A company that throws me a lot of work (so I can't complain) does this to me fairly often. For certain jobs I'll have to ask the PM, so by "half day" do you mean half day?

What I really hate is flat rate full days that stretch on for 15+ hours. And those are always the worst rates to begin with.

Gabby - "Flat rate" days are the worst. I usually make them give me an actual number in terms of hours and then write it into my deal memo. It doesn't always keep the hours to a minimum, but at least it makes them sweat a little.
