Do you make this clear to your clients? If I was told I was being billed for "one day" of your time, I would expect that you were spending about 8 hours working on my task. To find out otherwise, I would feel that I had been lied to.

Yes. I make this perfectly clear to my clients. If they give me 4 hours worth of work I still charge them for 1 entire day. And to be quite frankly, what I do with those other 4 hours is none of their business.
