Has nothing to do with being "holier than thou". God knows I'm not. But if something is worth doing, its worth doing right. My dad showed me that in his work as an electrician. No one say his work, but they KNEW it was done right.
You are better than me at one thing Steve, you're a better businessman. You put profit at the head. Which from a business point of view is the right thing. I just like doing the job, like seeing the finished product, my WOWing of the client is when they see the soil that came out AND they see and know how much cleaner it is.
Its like cleaning and polishing a car, I don't just do the quarter panels, hood, roof, and trunk. I'll clean around the door frame, the rockers, in the wheel wells, then stand back knowing I did a good job. Its the things you CAN"T SEE that make the difference to me. Not everyone will do that. No worries. But when there are so many splash and dash companies out there, I think we should, as the "professionals" raise the bar. An Exec Officer of a ship I was on had posted:
Excellence is the standard, Not the Goal!
If you're charging more than I am, great. I can tell people, here's a company that does this and that and charges $X, you are getting a whale of a deal with my service.
