---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Except for larger churches and a couple of nursing homes (not locally owned), I don't leave or send a bill. I stand there, and they write me a check or whip out some $20's. I have a form that I use for a statement or an estimate (or both) when detailed work is required, but even on that the word "invoice" does not appear. Even the U.S. Army (bless them, pray for them) pays me on the spot, by credit card. Am I all that unique in this? Maybe I just have my customers trained better than y'all do. :o) Alan Barnard Salem, Missouri ----- Original Message ----- From: Joseph Garrett To: pianotech Sent: 11/20/2005 5:53:56 PM Subject: Re: Check is in the mail!
