help wanted

[Brian Lawson]

Hi, I do work for a music shop, minimally two days a week, the other times I
have my own customers. I wont give my prices to save you economic/exchange
rate differences but I get half of every tuning that I do outside and a flat
rate per hour for time that I'm in the shop. I'm not taking the customers
that I get given to tune for, unless offered. Dont bite the hand that feeds,
honesty, integrity etc.
