Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, . That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask Crazy, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then .

I hope they still covered your time, at the very least.

Of course. I generally negotiate a flat rate fee for most of my jobs. They will offer something like $50 an hour for up to 4 hours with the budget set at $200. I flat out tell them I will go do the work for the $200 and if it happens to take longer than the 4 hours you pay me $50 an hour for the additional hours. That way when things go like they did today, I still get the $200 for showing up instead of all of a sudden I only get $50 cause the issue has been resolved or whatever. The companies probably do not like that but hell with them. I am not going to drive 30 miles each way and spend an hour working and only get $50

That makes sense to me, though I suspect it wasn't you driving 30 miles...

Hopefully you'll get your car back on the road, along with your bike.

Yeah I have my oldest son drive me and he does all the work, I do the paperwork and the phone calls and deal with the people, while he gets everything done. It works out great for me
