If you're a middle class white anglo person I'm legit surprised that you don't recognise that interaction. It seems baked in my blood, even if I don't think I've ever had it myself.

Someone, such as a plumber, came to do a job for a homeowner. At some point during or after the job the worker took an hour to have a pleasant conversation with the homeowner, drinking some offered lemonade during that time. The homeowner wishes to compensate the worker for the full time that they were at the house, four hours, but the worker believes that their generous hospitality more than paid for one of those hours, and only wishes to charge and accept a lesser amount.

People paying American dollars to let other people know they didn't agree with someone's position on something is the lifeblood of these forums.
I thought it was sex work. Still a low number, but getting a plumber to walk through your front door is going to cost you more than 60bux.

.. In what world is this an exchange anyone ever has? :psyduck: I've literally never heard of anything like this. Plumbers are more known for charging you a full hour for five minutes work and gods knows 90% of the people well off enough to actually afford a house sure don't want any of those poors getting their money if they can help it.

It's pretty normal in a certain class of the south, too. I'm pretty sure my father has had almost this exact exchange at some point.

I've had work done by friends who would normally charge me less because we were friends, but I insisted on paying the full amount because it's their personal business. I've had basically this exact conversation multiple times.

It appears that the elephant is highly sensitive to the effects of LSD - a finding which may prove to be valuable in elephant-control work in Africa.

Not for money, I was always “volunteered” to fix computers, hook up & program VCRs, etc.

I did mow lawns for money for a while in high school, and also for a summer afterwards when my brother ran off with his girlfriend and my parents decided it was my responsibility to take on his awful mowing jobs (seriously, one yard was at least 75% rocks and dog poop), despite already having a real job. But no negotiation or lemonade involved with those.
