What would you do ? Open it in two minutes and get just the call-out
fee or spin the job out to sixteen minutes and get the call-out fee
and the first part of an hour that you are able to charge an entire
hour for.

I'd do the job I was asked to do, without ripping off the customer.

Then, you would starve.

That's not true. You don't have to rip people off to make a living.
You just need to a good job at a decent price, which may not be the
lowest quote, be reliable and finish when you said you would.

Not hard.
