Labor Hour, you mean, and its how just about everybody does business.

And yet you wouldn't spend more than 20 dollars to fix a mirror to increase your safety and the safety of everyone around you, in a vehicle that is likely your lifeblood for getting you to school or work?
yeah, that makes sense dude.

Instead of being passive aggressive, why don't you get it out and say what you mean?
I'm enlightening the kid, and you're just pissy because I decided to explain to you A. the risks involved with fixing your own brakes and B. how the ****ing world works in business.
My bad, I'll skip the educational process of America and NOT enlighten those I might do business with, so I can deal with the headaches later of running into some guy who wants a motor swap done for 20 dollars because he drives an 81 civic work 50 bucks and doesn't want the cost of the work to go over the cost of the car.
