A) AWESOME.

B) Make sure you've got some agreement as to liability. If there's money involved, its not the same as the friendly request it would've been otherwise.

There is no such thing as a $50 repair anymore.

Haha, no. I'm just a cynical asshole. I wouldn't trust my neighbors to understand a parking-lot-job warranty.

Am too honest, am trying to help people get their car fixed as low cost as possible and I don't want to see them again for the same issue. I don't really care about money, I got my job for that. Unless the work requires a shit load of time, sweat and blood, that the person is a bitch or that the person is not a friend, then I will charge the full price. But for me, small maintenance shouldn't cost THAT much.

I always think about that. But I tell them, if there's something wrong with my work, call me ASAP, I'll check it out. So far, I've never had any issues and everyone is happy with my work.
