If a guy spends four years educating himself in a trade has his own equipment then comes to your house, does a 15 minute job, and charges you over $100 is that fair or unfair?
Depends on how much the job was worth for you and the likelihood of you being able to do it for yourself. Change a light bulb? No, not worth it. Find and fix an electrical fault that could have burned your house down? Yes, definitely worth it.
If I knew he was uneducated I wouldn't hire him because I would have a decent idea that he wouldn't provide a satisfactory service. Which is what I'm purchasing. A service.
