No, I'm not clueless at all.
When a plumber charges he charges by the hour, not by the minute.
If he fixes your pipes in 2 hours 15 minutes he charges for 3 hours.
That get's him to his next job.

I don't deny him those extra minutes. It's all part and parcel.

First off that isn’t every company’s policy and more importantly is my point that the “plumber” doesn’t charge you, the company does.
