You ever wish that people didn't know you know how to do what you do for a living?
Certain people always expect me to look at their car and fix it for free. Without even a thank you. They get upset when I don't want to look at it. Upset enough to ask someone else to be the go-between to ask me to look at their car. Because apparently I act like a dick when they ask me to look at their car. No effing wonder. Especially when you tell me your car won't start and the damn thing isn't in park. Or your key won't turn because you have the steering wheel crooked.
Please look at my car for some stupid reason. Oh, it's broken. Can you fix it? Oh, I'm broken. Can you fix me?
You can't fix stupid.
Rant off.
Pretty much goes for any trade which has a residential application. I don't know how many relative's TV's and junk I have fixed over the years; and that does include cars.
Relax, and simply start quoting prices, even if it's in Beer. The Moochers will go away and you won't come off as a Richard
