Is This True about All Electricians? What do Electricians hate the most in their job, Invoicing?

It's been a couple jobs I've had recently where I'm finishing up the job at a customer's house, and they always ask for a discount. Whether I'm there 30 minutes, I'm there 15 minutes, they think, "Oh, they need a discount." How do I avoid this?
