Cash or culture?

[Elsa TLC]

Two emergency jobs i have turned away this week. This is because both customers tried to negotiate the call out cost and tell me that I should make the repair within the hour.

I understand bartering is a big part in some cultures.

Not so much mine, so I lost money. They hung onto a problem and a worry longer than they needed to.

I find it strange that some people think they know how much I should be charging.

It’s a strange attitude, if they didn’t like the price, surely they should try somebody else.

And how can you possibly know how long a job will take without having seen it?
