Re: Price structure for my business
back in the early 80's I used to work for a computer leasing company. I drove all the way out to Leeward Community College to troubleshoot a terminal that wouldn't respond.
It was in the admin bldg and I sat my briefcase down and went to work. After few minutes I couldn't find anything wrong so I asked for the person who made the call. She came over and was amazed that I fixed it so fast.
I told her I couldn't find any problems, I just turned it on and it booted up as it should.
"Turned it on...you mean it was turned off?"
"Uh...yeah it has to be on to work"
Apparently she normally leaves the terminal on when she leaves work but that night I guess a cleaning crew must have turned it off. I didn't have the heart to charge her the $50 for the service call.
