Whichever pays best?
Seriously, 6 or half-dozen.......?!

What trade you are in? This forum is dominated by people who work in IT and we are almost always on a daily rate after hourly rates disappeared years ago. Price work is pretty rare unless you have an established business.

If you are working on a building site contract then my understanding is that it's probably going to be price work though you will be up against stiff competition from people over from Eastern Europe.

Personally I have always tried to structure is such that a business day is 7.5hours and anything above that they have to pay me hourly rate for overtime.
In practice it rarely went beyond. On the plus side on no day did I charge less than a days work, so it's not either/or.

That is rather a broad question - i think better hourly rate for me would be £80/hr (Well i would love to earn that though lol ). However, you have provided us with little or no information to answer your vague question.

If i was in your shoes, i will start by telling us what you do ? how many years experience you have , etc...

I think you've misunderstood the question, probably due to the OP's poor punctuation.

"price work" does not mean anything.

Um, it doesn't mean anything to you. That doesn't mean that other people don't understand what the term means.

Honestly , I dont see how that will affect what the question potrays.
