Give an estimate up front, and point out that the actual= fee may be greater or lesser, depending on how difficult the= piano is, how much noise/distractions you have to put up with,= etc. When anyone is on the clock, time is of the essence. When= someone cranks up the vacuum, politely tell the client that you= have to interrupt your tuning while the vacuum cleaner is= running, because you can't hear the beating of the notes -- but= that you're still on the clock. By the time you take a good= stretch, the vacuum cleaner should be winding down. ;-) Peace, Sarah ----- Original Message ----- From: antares To: Pianotech Sent: Sunday, November 14, 2004 8:00 AM Subject: wear and tear on da nerves On 14-nov-04, at 6:25, David Love wrote: I hadn't thought of this before but next time somebody is making= noise when I'm tuning the piano...k'ching...thank you that will be an= extra fifty bucks for wear and tear on my nerves.
