[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I worked the counter at a car dealership service bay in high school. The mechanic has a book that says how long a typical job will take (say a tire change = 1 hour). So they bill an hour of labor. But really if they are fast and/or sloppy, they can do it in 20 minutes. So they can charge for "one hour of labor" for only 20 minutes of work. [/quote] Yes this in the case in MD, by state law. It's to prevent overcharging. So it's 1.25 hours (let's say) for an oil change for your car at every shop in MD, and the only difference is their hourly rate.[/quote]
