Well Steve probably picks up the envelopes.

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.

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?
