Entitled Client Loses Discounted Consultant final

Entitled "Client" Learns that Professionals can Infact Walk Away I work as an engineer.

I do some consulting on the side, but typically only for people I know and as a favor.

A good friend asked me to help his inlaws who were doing some fairly massive renovations/additions. I agreed solely

because he asked me to. This is not something I have any interest or need in doing

except as a favor. Its an old house and had can of worms written all over it with some of

the changes they wanted to do. Now he warned me that the MIL can be unpleasant,

but that was an understatement. She seemed to think that because I was being paid (I charged

probably 1/10th what a business would) that she could snap her fingers at me like a servant.
