I guess I'm a bad guy when it comes to all the weird little 
engineering side jobs. I always enjoyed doing them, they did have a 
lower priority. Of course I guess what was different is that everyone 
knew that these were "favors" from engineering and were always very 
appreciative of us we we did them. (this is referring to when I was on staff)

Now that I'm independent, I'll be happy to do anything you want me to 
do. Just be aware you may be billed for the time. I also will do the 
quickie "could you do this for me?" things when on site without an 
extra charge just as a part of client relations.
