Jim's mowing franchise owner, quoted an hourly rate then doubled it on the bill because he brought a helper

Sounds like he most be either the cheapest plumber or the most expensive lawn mower man around.

He’s an apprentice. I expect when he has finished, he will drop my lawnmwing too. Its his second career (the plumbing)

We engaged Jim’s Mowing to cut our grass and all was good for 18 months. Next we heard that the franchise owner got sick of the stupid fees and charges imposed by owning a franchise, called it quits on amicable terms and reverted to a small business with his clientele. Sadly the new Jim’s franchise owner in the area is having issues building up a customer base due to the same reasons as the previous owner.
