Scheduling

I understand how difficult it can be when your computer is malfunctioning. I always try to schedule your appointment as soon as possible. If you call with non-emergency work, it's entirely possible that someone could show up right away but I make no guarantees of immediate availability. You will definitely be offered the first available time slot. If you absolutely MUST have it done before then and I have to rearrange my schedule, emergency rates will apply.

If I'm working on your system for a non-emergency call, there is always a chance that I'll be interrupted with an emergency. If that's the case, you'll be fairly compensated and rescheduled right away. I apologize for that inconvenience, but I know you'll forgive me the first time I have to leave another client to solve your computer emergency.
