Two months ago, the water pump on my Cummins was going out. I figured it would take me 6 to 8 hours to swap it out. Instead, I hired a friend that is a mobile mechanic. He came to my shop and took care of it in 3 hours. He charged me $100 an hour. I often make $100 an hour doing what I do. So, the math was easy. I paid him and told him thank you.
