Point taken. I think these sorts of deals tug on my heartstrings so I try to give them a break, and then I wind up irritated when the guy on the other side thinks he's getting gouged no matter what I do with my fees. I tend to get talked into things too easily. Another little story from a long time ago -- I once did about 40 hours of pro bono work setting up a nonprofit with a FPD package to do their mailings. A year later I got a call from a newly hired administrator wanting me to go back to their site and help them convert the system over to Access. When I wasn't able to dash right over she actually chewed me out for not supporting my system. It seems like the smaller the client the more grief they are. But I hate even thinking that. I've been a small client that has hired help for only a few hours at a time for network support, wiring, stuff that I wasn't that good at. I don't recall being a pain in the butt towards them. I paid their office visit fee and hourly rates without complaining about it. Even the guy that fixes the dryer gets a fee just for showing up.
