Yesterday I went to visit a client because his WiFi on iPod was not working and the world was coming to an end; this is his only computer/email/web access gizmo.
I show up and ask what happened.
He tells me that his iPod broke and he took it to Apple store and they fixed it, but now WiFi doesn't work.
I go into settings, guess what...
Literally 17 seconds later, I was done.
He also had me look at his iPhone as it never works in the house.
Yeap, you guessed it.
This one was very close to my house (~1mile each way).
When I came come about 20min after I left, wife asked me what I have forgotten as she couldn't believe that in 2014 someone could still be so clueless.

Get right up, grab some batteries, swap them out, then hand him a bill for $300 dollars and have it made out.... Service call to change out batteries in remote control. I'd stop at a CVS and buy the batteries, have them in the little white CVS bag, after all you need a tax deduction on this job! :)

Showing pictures like that you deserve your location. I did not need to see any pictures on blue water.

He made the right choice ;) I just upgraded one of my longtime customers and as I walk through the garage I notice he replaced his BMW M6 with a brand new black Audi R8...a nice tip would be to take that for a ride!!

Well if you want to go there, anyone who can afford to own either one can afford to own both so that would be the proper answer.
But a one time drive, Ferrari for me.
Oh and my new favorite client just upgraded the empty spot in his garage with a F430. His wife already offered me a drive....not sure he knows about it yet. Yikes.

A guy before me tried the 360 Modena, and it sounded like crap. (Maybe had a defective exhaust). They also had a 458 italia. Now that's a nice car, sounded amazing but it was out of my budget... FYI 5 laps r8 = 230$. 5 laps in the 458 italia = 575$
