When his computer printer began to print out faintly, a man called the
repair shop. The clerk said: “From your description of the problem, the
printer probably only needs cleaning. It will cost you $50 if you bring it
in and have it cleaned here, so really you’d be better off reading the
manual and doing the job yourself.”
Pleasantly surprised by the clerk’s honesty, the man said: “Does your boss
know that you discourage business?”
“Actually,” replied the clerk sheepishly, “it’s my boss’s idea. We usually
make more money on repairs if we let people try to fix things themselves
first.”
