When people with their pronouns on their emails ask me for a quote I don't give them any breaks and will make my estimate high. Not only for the “woke” factor, but dealing with their usually larger and more bureaucratic company will take longer, cost more and take longer to get paid.

I knew a business person who charged his conservative customers less than the liberal ones. He told me he did that.
