Engine builders...this machining cost sound excessive?

What about all of the things shop owners DON'T get paid for?
*Dealing with customers who want something for nothing.
*Babysitting those who do not understand the process, but still complain
*Covering all of your bases, so that you're not married to the job for the rest of your businesses life
*complying with OSHA, EPA, city and county regulations, Fire Dept, Workmans Comp, Etc.
*sitting on completed work, cause the customer is in jail
*lost labor, cause the customer changed their mind and abandoned the project
*projects brought in, in a crate (parts missing)
*ETC

someone had to say it !
Completely agree. Lots of times, the shop owner isn’t trying to get rich, they’re just trying to keep in business. I’ve seen too many episodes of Restaurant Impossible where the owner hasn’t taken a paycheck in years and is losing money every month just keeping the staff paid.
