Is it better to hire by the hour or on a monthly fee?

A monthly fee fits when there is a calendar, replies and a shoot that repeats, because the venue cannot rebuild the job every Monday. Loose hours fit a one-off shoot or an opening, not someone answering the chat every shift. List what has to happen every week without fail: pieces, service stories and who watches WhatsApp. An hourly bundle is spent on meetings and by mid-month nobody is left to post the menu. A fee with the scope written down, pieces and replies inside the shift, and loose hours only for a dated shoot or event.
