Customers who despise your work will always exist
#howtodealwith A Professional who was called upon to fix a very large and extremely complex team worth $ 20 million. Sitting in front of the screen, he pressed a few keys, nodded, muttered something to himself, and turned off the set. He proceeded to remove a small screwdriver from his pocket and turned a tiny screw one-and-a-half turns. He then he turned on again and checked that he was working perfectly.
The company president was delighted and offered to pay the bill on the spot.
- How much do I owe you? he asked.
"It's a thousand dollars, if he'll do me a favor."
- One thousand dollars? One thousand dollars for a few moments of work?
A thousand dollars to tighten a simple screw? I know my equipment costs $ 20 million, but a thousand dollars is a crazy amount! I will pay you only if you send me a perfectly detailed invoice that justifies it.
The professional nodded and left.
The next morning, the president received the bill, read it carefully, shook his head, and proceeded to pay it on the spot, without question.
The invoice said:
Services provided:
Tighten a screw ............ US $ 1 dollar
Know which screw to tighten .... US $ 999 dollars
For all those professionals who day by day are faced with the disregard of those who due to their own ignorance do not manage to understand them.
REMEMBER: "YOU EARN BY WHAT YOU KNOW, NOT BY WHAT YOU DO".
It has happened to me so many times that I have had to deal with stupid and inconsiderate clients, who love to minimize our work, despite all that it has cost us.

knowledge is worth a lot, it is better that they charge that one does it properly and end up ruining it

All right with you, this reminds me of a Venezuelan comedian Count del Guacharo that when they asked him for a joke, he said when you go to the doctor, you ask him not to charge the consultation.

It's all with effort and dedication... if we want something to work out, we have to work out.

If so there are people who want to put the price on your job at their convenience and denigrate the person who has repaired them

Yes, knowledge is important in everything you do, and if you do anything without having knowledge at all, you can also cause problems that cannot be solved!

They not only do it when it is something simple, they also do it with jobs that involve great physical effort. they are predators who want to live off the work of other people who in many cases out of necessity accept and despise their own work just for bringing bread to their homes.
