As an hourly employee, I'd expect that. I generally won't answer my phone without billing it to my client, and I don't expect contractors working for me to do that either. I occasionally have conversations with contractors about how to categorize time we spent discussing something that may not be billable to a client, but usually it's billable in some form or fashion. There are common sense exceptions to that - I do talk to clients about new business without charging them, for example. Mainly I think I'd be worried about a blanket law applying to salaried employees. -Cameron ... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:346165 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
