it is like it is not a legitimate industry (and sure some are not legitimate but that is what you get when you take your car to a guy in his garage and get a low labor rate )
I always joke I should have been a plumber then the only tools I would need are a white Chevy van, pipe wrench and plunger. Instead of 100's of thousands of dollars worth of equipment to charge less than a plumber???
