When you put in a gun to get worked on at this gunsmith, you have to initial a buncha stuffs on the order form. Like, for instance, how the cost may go up to correct a serious safety issue if he finds it when deep in the guts of the gun you are getting repaired. Like, say, if the hammerhooks were badly damaged. You only can see that on a detail strip, but gah, I want that fixed when discovered.
But my favorite part was "an additional $5 may be charged every time you call to check on the status of a build or repair." Now, this is one of those 'usually you don't have to worry about this' situations, but you do actually get guys that put down a deposit for a custom gun build from the ground up ordered on a Saturday afternoon, and the guy calls on Tuesday knowing the shop is closed on Sundays and Mondays wondering if his gun is done and ready to be picked up.
Dude, really?! He said it would be at least a year before he could start it, as there is a queue ahead of you. And then the Jack-Wagon calls every day thereafter. Five dollars, five dollars, five dollars... You remind the enthusiastic fantasist with unreasonable expectations that it's costing him money, but you do tack it on.
You know the type. For some reason this personality regularly visits gunstores.

You can always offend hippies in the comment section. Chances are, those will be held up as a proper example...
