[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Guy whose wife is constantly talking him up on a local listserv. They go on and on about being family owned, honest, etc. After a bad ice/snowstorm a couple of years ago when DH had just had surgery, I got desperate about getting extra snow off the roof. He and his buddy charged me $250 for whaat was literally 15 minutes' work. I always felt like a chump but it was a hard time and i didn't argue with them. I figure they made thousands that day, taking advantage of people in our neighborhood. Every time I see his wife post on the listserv I feel irritated.[/quote] You weren't overcharged for this work. Do you realize how dangerous it is? Why didn't you get up on the roof yourself if $250 was too much for you?[/quote] $250 is not a fair wage for 15 minutes of work moron. [/quote] No one forces you to accept a bid. If you don't like the quoted rate get someone else to do the work. The name calling is trashy.[/quote]
