Had a lady insist I should put a new zipper in her jeans, they were very tight and she busted out of them. She is under the assumption that since I sew, I like to mend (not a chance) and that I need the money to pay off my machines (paid in full when purchased). Or I need extra income (why, so can pay more taxes than I already paid, duh?) I told her it would cost $100.00, per pair, for me to replace her zipper. She was flabbergasted and angry! Asked me why, told her "because". (No other explanation). She then in a huffy voices she said, " well I can buy 3 new pairs of jeans for that price". My response? "Well, buy the correct size this time and you won't break the zipper." I giggled when she walked off in a huff.
