With this last church, the humidity dropped and the piano dropped 5 cents with it. They are not happy, but I'm not sure I'll be able to keep them happy. Most churches seem content to let the piano drift and are only concerned about pitch for special events...then they have me tune. You know, yesterday I was offered my old job at $60,000 per year. I must admit that I'm tempted, what with these difficult clients. But I turned it down, 'cuz I know what I don't like about that job. I'm convinced no job, even pianos, is perfect...that's why they call it work! -- Frank Cahill Associate Member Northern Va
