I dont mean to jack the thread but if i could expand a little here.
My mechanic costs me NZD 45, couldn't get a plumber here at home for 45 - 50, and joe public gets the pricker when i want to charge 40$ per hour for something that could kill them if they mess with it or burn their home down. I have to sit a saftey course every 2 years and pay for a licence, 4 years of study & i cant remember how many exams i HAD to pass.
