Sounds like a Steve Jones quality assurance program.

Jaimie can just cover it from the ah-hem “protection” dues his customers just 
happen to hand over in their monthly envelope I’m sure.   lol

Jamie,

 

You are in a different business though - you don’t get recurring income from 
your work (at least I don’t think you do).   No way I would cover it for free 
on a contract job.

  Funny how some folks only believe in God after it affects them some way...we 
bill for any SCADA equipment damaged by lightning or surges along with labor 

  We follow best practices as far as protection but some of the wiring that is 
inside enclosure is not under our scope of responsibility...

    Hey guys,

     

    We typically perform free service calls when we find defective gear with no 
signs of damage.

     

    When we see lightning damage with black ethernet connectors or other signs 
of physical damage, we always bill labor and hardware and sometimes credit back 
a portion of it but never all of it.

     

    Many customers think that their monthly bill should cover acts of God like 
lightning and power surges but I don't believe that at all. If there's a power 
surge, the power utility won't pay to replace your appliances and electronics. 
Paying your Verizon bill doesn't get them to replace your phone if it dies.

     

    Why do customers think we will come out and work for free and give them 
free hardware?

     

    What do you guys do just so I know I'm not being crazy by billing for 
damage that we didn't cause?
