This is a prolblem most if not all professionals face regardless of what that profession may be. I know I have absolutly no problem helping my close frinds and family out. As a matter of facr, I get almost offended when I here thy went somewhere and paid to have work done. With that being said, people I consider "work budies/friends" I won't even bother with thier BDSR's (Beat Down Shit Rides) for less than $100.00 The way I see it, I have paid a lot of money for what I know and even more money for the tools to do it. Whn people here you're a mechanic a lot will say "oh yea that's great, my makes this sound. What's wrong with it and how much do you want to fix it". Like they can even come close to mimmicking the actual noise with thier mouth, and they usually want to fix it for a happy meal or something. Oh well, Thank you Scott for giving us a good reason to vent here.
