Short advice video (single speaker, Marissa Brennan) explaining why she changed travel fees: she moved from charging per mile to charging per half-hour so travel compensation covers time and energy (example: $40 for a 4-hour round trip was only $10/hr and barely covered gas). The clip urges service providers to update travel fees.
Why I change how I charge for travel. And you should do. I used to charge per mile, which you might be doing right now. And sometimes it ended up only being like $40 for a two hour drive. Like way. Until I realized I'm charging $40 for that two hour ride. Round trip is about four hours and I realized that's about $10 an hour. Yeah, that barely even covered the gas. So instead I switched to charging per half hour instead of per mile. This. This is now going to cover your time. And you won't feel resentful when you're driving long distances because you're actually getting paid for your time. If your travel fee hasn't been updated in years, this is your sign. You're charging not only for the distance, you're also charging for your time and energy.
