Interestingly, being more productive as hourly contractor is a bad thing mostly, since you get paid less. Working fixed contracts is better that way.

In this particular weird setup your company has, though, sounds like that's not the case. But as others have said the system they use doesn't make sense.

Bill by larger time blocks (days, weeks?). Done with your work for the day in a couple hours? Take a walk in the forest, do some fishing, work on your car, meditate or whatever.
