Mechanics don't punch a clock in and out on a job. From my understanding, most repairs have a "set time" in the books for how long they should take. If the mechanics finish early, customers aren't catching a break on cost.

Right, but you don't get to bill for the book hours times 120% just because you feel like it.

Yeah, that would be unethical. Rates shouldn't be set capriciously.

What is being argued is that if I have a job that the book says should take 8 hours, is it ethical for Extorter to charge for 10. He may be able to get it done in 4, that's irrelevant. The book (be it Chilton's, AllData, or Mitchell) calls for 8. So charging that extra 10-25% that he claimed is outright theft. |

he said he QUOTES the customer 2.2 hours, and then bills them 2.2 hours. How is that unethical?
