Simplified the question
Apr 8, 2016 at 17:55 comment added fiprojects BTW I've been a contractor/consultant/freelancer since 1994 and learned never to turn work down but instead push the decision to the client. If I really want it, I become less expensive. If I will have discomfort, I get more expensive. If you don't value your time, nobody else will. Best of luck!
Apr 8, 2016 at 17:54 comment added fiprojects Andrew - Your time is valuable. While working for them, you are restricted from taking money from another company. I would charge full rate a discounted rate to encourage the client to call you again at some point in the future while still respecting your time/effort. When you apply a discount, do so (for example) on the provisio that they pay you for 10hours (for example) and have 12hours of your time "in the bank". Put an expiry on the hours (3months?). Time is "spent" in half hour "units". Its a win win both sides, you feel rewarded and customer does not feel robbed.

Apr 8, 2016 at 17:02 comment added Canadian Luke Hi Andrew, welcome to Freelancing.SE! This question is quite open ended, and would be too hard to answer as one specific answer (too broad). I'm closing it for now, but please try to edit it to be more on topic and answerable. See How to Ask for more info, or drop by Freelancing Chat or Freelancing Meta to chat more with us
