[QUOTE="llrajitha, post: 13036026, member: 71849"] [FONT=Trebuchet MS][SIZE=3]I've read similar articles before and this happens to be the absolute bitter truth :P When I started my pc repair business back in 2010, I billed one person 200/=, the funny thing was that he always came to me with silly little pc troubles and expected free and cheap service more often than I can remember. Anyway I handled it buy double charging him once. I told him that if I dont get the amount I asked for, then I dont want to waste my time over his problem. Of course he paid and after that he never bothered me with stupid work for free or cheap. Thanks to him I got a decent client though. Another one made it his hobby to call me whenever he had a PC trouble and expected me to visit his place and work for hours for cheap rates. Even when he visited the shop he would bring his whole family and they all stay there until some of us fixed the damned computer. Honestly I liked this guy because of his hot daughter, who was very friendly.
