    Question Am i wrong???

    I know this is the droid x forums but i figured i would make a post here anyway.

    I have rooted about 4 droids now. One being my old one, two being my coworkers, and the other being the evo. I got 4 more lined up for this weekend and I am going to charge 25 bucks a pop.

    These are not people I know mind you but I feel like i should be paid for this. Am I wrong?

    What would you do?

    LOL - I was gonna just answer "yes" based on the title ...but I did open up and read the actual post...

    No, it is probably not out of line - you are doing them a benefit especially if they don't feel comfortable doing so...

    ?Huh? If a customer wants to pay for services that you are providing with full disclosure, how would it, in any aspect, be wrong?

    I don't see anything wrong with it. If they're willing to pay, and you're providing a service...

    You're only wrong if you have anything against capitalism and free trade. As others have said, you have a specific skill set that the average Joe doesn't have. You can do something that they (in their mind) cannot do, or are unwilling to do; no different than being a mechanic, doctor, or lawyer. Look at it this way; if you did it professionally, you could charge $40. For friends, it's $25. Now you're cutting them a break!

    I gave you the benefit of the doubt, read your post and offered my opinion -- which seems to be in line with everyone else...so ok, you are not wrong (I really wanted that in small type ) LOLOL...
