Real world problems... I do consulting (I guess you could say I am a provider with a solution to a different problem than people face on this board.) So the way I view it is this and feel free to have your own opinions. When I travel for my consulting I charge my client for expenses. Air, hotel, 3 meals, and my 8-5 hourly fee. Yeah sometimes I may work a little more than 8-5 but I take the opportunity to at least try and see the "free" places I go to. Experiencing different parts of the world when the bulk of my expenses are paid for as well as having somewhat a set income for a couple days/weeks from 8-5 is a win. For me I'd be upfront with a provider and say I'll pay expenses and 8-5 each day. Take it or leave it. You'd have some free time to see/do what you want just give me a couple hours a day. Everyone/company is different. Some offer more/less. As a consultant I'm just hear to offer my advice and recommendations. i do accept session discounts for the consultation.
