BTW, how much does a P. charge by the hour to deal with the filth in our brains?  |
The $30 per hour I did not balk at.
I could change a window in three hours and I am marginally handy. He wanted me to believe that it was an all day thing to change out a window. Even one that is 90 years old.
I think my hourly rate is around $300 for therapy. (I work for Mayo Health System, so I don't have to do my own billing, or set my own rate.)
