No, not agency timesheets (I never charge for filling those in, unlike solicitors) but the client's internal time tracking thing which they used to calculate the %age of time spend doing non-admin tasks and other metrics. Funnily enough the answer was always 100%, which was why most of their projects overran.

Trying to charge time to the client for admin tasks like filling timesheet is quite petty and gives a bad name to all of us contractors
Just log it as 'development' like everyone else

Longest Time in Contract with No Time for Timesheets

21 months at a mobile telco. No one was allowed to put any time down to admin tasks, including filling in timesheets.
