Yet again I get a phone call from some lawyer at a large law firm that the list of partner's names is so long they answer the phone with "Law Firm". The firm occupies two floors of a downtown high rise. They likely charge more per hour than I can imagine.
The lawyer asks what coverage we have of a river from the 1970s to 2000. We have dozens of flights and I give him our standard prices. Then he starts with the old BS. He claims the budget is tiny and they have to do this cheap. This is part of a big lawsuit. Big money is at stake. I told him, same price, that is what we charge.
I wanted to ask if he will call the local utility companies and ask for a discount because his customer is on a budget. No one else on the planet has these images. We are not charging that much.
Likely our total bill is less than his firm charges per hour and he wants us to reduce that. Ain't gonna.
