Paid someone today to come and move a waste pipe 4 centimetres back into a wall so we can fit in a dishwasher. This cost £120 and that's before all the tea and milk costs (he didn't take sugar thank the Lord Sugar).
That means we payed £30 per centimetre. If I charged that rate, per centimetre, for my graphic design I'd be so well off I'd be able to have all the pipes in my house moved a few centimetres just for the hell of it. I would also have enough to pay for therapy to try and curb my needless spending on pipe alterations and I would give £150 a month to a hypothetical bird charity set up in the event of birds losing flight and requiring treatment for the extra strain put upon their thin and spindly legs.
