[pianotech] Time Clock?

[William Monroe]

John and others,

I've worked by this method for some time.  However, I think one 
consideration might be that a really good way to know if you misquote is by 
keeping accurate record of the time you spend on your work.  I know I'm 
guilty of generalizing my time in the shop, and I've longed to know how many 
minutes I ACTUALLY spend doing the various jobs.  Trouble is..........I 
don't want a time clock either.  <G>

I've made a couple well-intentioned efforts to track my time in the shop to 
see if I'm as accurate as I think I am when I quote a job.  I get about 
halfway through a job before I stop keeping track.  My difficulty is that I 
hate being distracted with time-keeping.  I'd rather be working.  Pick your 
battles I guess.
