T&M requires a great deal of trust between the customer and the contractor. It can only work after a long standing relationship has developed.
As for "flat rate," we ALL like to know ahead of time what we can expect to spend. Would you roder at a restaurant, without knowing the cost?
reck roh...:D
that being said, i've been to a bunch of restaurants in NYC that you do order without a menu and without pricing...some of the best italian restaurants are like that...
Often times when people are spending money on entertainment and recreation they have a tendancy to not worry so much about the cost.
They're out having a good time, they don't want to spoil it by stressing over how much it's costing them.
That's why they'll pay 2 bucks or more for a hot dog.
Generally they'll stress over it the next day after the hangover wears off and they realize how much they spent.
