Stuck

Today, I was in and out of my room to cook dinner at 11:30pm and accidentally locked the door. I couldn't jimmy it by myself so called a locksmith who used two of those inflatable car door things and a screwdriver to pop it in 30 seconds flat. Cost me 180 bucks. FML

Reminds me of the story of this engineer who charged $10,000 to repair an airplane motor, only to knock on one part with a hammer. It worked. The customer wanted a detailed invoice, not believing that a simple knock with a hammer was worth $10,000. The invoice read as such: Knocking on airplane motor no A12B34C56: $1 Knowing where to knock and with what: $9,999 Total: $10.000

You are paying for the locksmiths expertise not how long they took to do the job. If you wanted cheap then you should have used a hammer.
