Service Call From Heaven.


Got a call from an existing customer who is in the middle of a bathroom remodel and needs a few thingss done. We are booked about a week out but of course her guy is there today waiting to install the vanity.

I figure I can handle it in my unstocked pick up truck. I throw a few iyems on and head out.

Raise a GFCI outlet to clear the vanity splash, easy. Install 3 dimmers and a switch provided by her, easy. Secure a floppy recep box in the kitchen, easy enough.

Total bill, about 1.5 hours @ about $!80.

She gives me a $100 tip.
