Did you include the time to get the parts $30 labor each is a bit stiff depending on the style.Had tires put on at a local shop. Said I needed a cabin and air filter based on the oil change sticker. I said nah, I’m good. Looked at the quote late when I got home. $30 each for the filters AND $30 EACH for labor!!! WTF?
If I saw that before I left...
Paid $40 for both and installed them in less than 3 minutes.
But think of it like this
What did that 3min actually cost you
From turning on the light switch paying all the bills and paying yourself to do the work and turn a profit on the part.
Lets say book time pays tech .2hrs and he makes a piddly $13hr
Figure out per minute what it cost to do that job....
