Repairs

When a guy's printing on his printer began to grow faint, he called a local repair shop where a friendly man informed him that the printer probably needed only to be cleaned.

Because the store charged $50 for such cleanings, he told him he might be better off reading the printer's manual and trying the job himself.

Pleasantly surprised by his candor, he asked, "Does your boss know that you discourage business?"

"Actually, it's my boss's idea," the employee replied sheepishly. "We usually make more money on repairs if we let people try to fix things themselves first."

This is not a joke! It is the policy of big business to fix things beyond repair, so the owner cannot do it right. A simple little heater hose on my son-in-laws pickup is going to cost him over $150.00, because of the way it is attached to the engine block. It is designed to break off in the block,if you try to fix it yourself.

Sounds like the boss wants to lose business.
