This is probably the best advice I've ever taken from tptacek (and I've taken a lot of his advice). Anyone who is billing by the hour is doing themselves a disservice, especially if they're not including "time spent on the phone with the g/f" or "time going to the bathroom" (true story - I really used to take out time going to the bathroom! Seems hard to imagine looking back). I could write a lot more about this, but tptacek has already said it all so much better in the past. I just wanted to chime in as another person who totally agrees, and that actually transitioned from not billing "daily" to billing "daily" (or weekly or monthly).
