person A: I got the courage to contact a potential client the other day and set a rate for my work that's higher than I usually charge.
person B: Wow good for you! I hope that it works out for you!
person A: Thanks! The work isn't terribly exciting but it felt good not having to negotiate knowing the client wanted me to do work for them.
person B: Yeah and I bet the higher paycheck will make the work worth it. 
person A: That always makes it worth it to be honest!
