My old foreman told me 'the customer's always right' is a lie
He pulled me aside in the shop bay after a guy yelled at me for a $90 diagnostic fee. He said, 'You know what you're doing, and they're paying for that. Don't let anyone talk down your work.' Ever since then, I charge for my time without feeling bad. How do you guys handle customers who question your rates?

My buddy who does freelance computer repair had a client flip out over a $75 flat fee for a virus removal. He just said, "That's the rate for the job, it took me an hour and a half of my know-how." The guy paid, and actually called him back for more work later.
