I see absolutely no reason to discount to what will likely be your most difficult customer who will take the absolute longest to pay. I have one choral teacher in a school 30 miles from me who is a sweetheart. She has me out 3 times a year to tune 3 pianos and whatever I do is wonderful. But that is definitely the exception for most of the schools that I have dealt with in my 25 years.
