The clash began after Spring refused to pay a $287 electrician’s bill that his landlord forwarded him for the repair of a burnt-out socket in his unit. Shortly after, the landlord notified Spring that his rent would increase by $100 per month.
The jury awarded Spring $16,000 — an amount that Oregon law doubles to $32,000 because of the nature of the violation. On top of that, Spring’s attorneys also are entitled to ask a judge to order the landlord to pay all of Spring’s legal fees, an amount that currently stands at $225,000.



It’s a 10 minute job, 15 at most. If I’d had ramps and my tools that were stolen, I would have done it myself. So I paid less, got a name brand oil and filter without having to shop for it, no disposal fee, for a 20 minute drive. I also had an appointment and was in and out in about 20 minutes, including talking with the shop owner, their family, and the shop fur babies, which my own fur baby got to enjoy.
15 minute job, plus talking to you, doing the books, having the bay taken up, having the tools and equipment…
people deserve to be paid for their work
Nah, this is a backyard guy.
ah, that makes a lot more sense then
Especially when a shop with liability insurance and overhead provides everything, with a better product, for less.
So he doesn’t deserve to get paid for his work… The fuck is wrong with you.
Like most people, budgetary constraints.
Cheap ass
When you pay my regular bills, I won’t be.
