[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Obviously you can’t be working on two projects at the same time. This is fraud plain and simple. We all multitask yes but at the end of the day you prob spend 30 min in one project 30 min in the other: this is why law firms bill in 6 min increments, to minimize these shenanigans. Unless they know how to turn back time. [/quote]

True but in some cases the timesheet doesn’t allow the person to record hours worked after 5pm. Or, for whatever reason, the supervisor does t want any of the clients getting billed for hours outside of 8-5, or for non-consecutive hours— even if employee actually worked in project 2 for an hour (7am-8am) in morning, two hours in afternoon (noon to 2pm) and then answered emails about the project after hours at home (from 8pm-9pm). And so they’ve been told to just put it all in one time chunk of four hours from 1-4pm or 8am-noon even if those aren’t the actual times worked.

The basic idea is they worked 4 hours on each project. Do you know that they are NOT working 12 hours a day? Tbh, consulting work is not typically an 8-hours/day job so if be surprised if they worked fewer than 12 hours a day. [/quote]
