    Yeah absolutely, I’m not disagreeing with you. But if you had to drive across town to perform the work, and say you didn’t know beforehand that it was a float or you didn’t have the right type with you and had to go to the store, then your total amount of time spent port to port would likely be more than an hour. How much is your time worth? I am a technician , my work charges over $200/hr labor rate. About half that goes to me. There is overhead with coordination, vehicle costs, tools, etc… Basically what I’m saying is that yeah, the physical work only takes 10 minutes, but much more goes into the cost than just that.
