The company I work for has different rates for different customers. In short as high a rate as the customer is willing to sign for.

They do not tell me the rates and that is fine with me.

A licensed guy is billed out at the same rate as an apprentice.

Occasionally customers will not accept that so instead of charging say (made up numbers) $75 for each, they will be charged $50 and $100. either way the cost for two guys for one hour is the same.
