I have two service rates one for monitored clients, one for locals...the local rate is MUCH higher. However, I frequently make generous allowances for folks on fixed income, disabled clients, retired and current service persons (cops, fire, etc).
I try not to give anything away though! I figure if I make a little here..a little there it adds up :-)...but losing a little here and a little there does NOT - actually it does add up but its RED.
