[QUOTE="turkeyrun, post: 3963425, member: 27991"] I had a little side, cleaning the guns for several of the local PD. These guys knew nothing past how to load and unload. One day a cop I hadn't seen before, shows up with a shoe box. Says Joe told him I could "fix" his M-19. Told him $50. He got his cop attitude and tell him, ok, now it is $75. He asked, "why? I charged the other guys $25 for cleaning." I said, "$50 for my tools and knowledge, plus $25 for attitude adjustments." He says, "I'll be watching you, ticket book in hand." Sets box down and turns to leave. Says, "I'll be back in an hour." I hand him the box and tell him to come back in 4 months, I was busy. He starts whining, "I need it for work, TONIGHT." I laughed, "oh, you want a rush job. That will be an extra $75." His attitude suddenly became more amicable. I put the Smith together and sent him on his way. He became a good customer and attitude improved considerably. [/QUOTE]
