Comment Paid by the hour or per Job (Score 1) 265
It all depends, if the employer is paid by the hour or just for doing the job,
On the other hand, if he was paid by the hour then my next question would be, what is he doing in the meanwhile? If he has to spend those hours in an office at work then basically it doesn't matter because he is paid by the hour, not for a job. If he spends his time at work then his employer still gets that time.
If he's paid by the hour and does something else at home then that's cheating. otherwise, I don't see the moral dilemma.
