I wish there was a common standard of when the meter is running for both hhr and hr. Originally Posted by bored@homeSMH. There is. If you told her you'd be there at 10, your time starts at 10.

For what it's worth punctuality has never been a issue on my part and I have been lenient to the other side of the house. Going forward though I may adopt your iron fisted approach
If I reserve an hour with a financial planner, a therapist, a lawyer, an architect, or anyone else who provides service for time, I expect that my time will be up one hour after the appointment time. If I got there late, that's my fault. If he or she extends your time, that's a courtesy, not your right.

Too many factors on both sides can contribute to 5-10 minutes before or after the scheduled start time BCD time starts when you're actually BCD. Just my opinion.

IMO, the chit chat beforehand, maybe 5-7 minutes tops, should not count against actual session time, neither should taking a shower or chit chat afterwards(maybe another 5-7 minutes). However, a provider who wants you out ASAP or sees many guys a day, and every hour on the hour, she will probably have a problem with that 10 or so extra minutes total. But, depending on what is allowed by the provider, so is the situation, so if it is important, ask each provider.We all know what you think.
I have had one extreme, where the provider's rule is one pop or whatever real time is paid for, whichever comes first, to the other where the provider will chat for almost 45 minutes, a full compliment of BCD session time, then another 30 minutes or more of chat afterwards.
