Pro tip: A customer's comment about a $15 part changed how I look at every call now.

I was replacing a control board on a fridge in a rental unit, and the property manager said 'you know, you're the only one who even checks the door seals first.' It made me realize I was jumping to the expensive fix without the basic check. Anyone else get caught in that routine?

My shop bills by the hour, so checking every seal first just costs the customer more money.

My cousin's a mechanic and he swears half his jobs start with a loose battery cable... @joseph_black's hourly thing makes sense for his shop though.
