Conflict of Interest Between Freinds, Family and BUSINESS


Conflict of Interest Between Freinds, Family and BUSINESS
#1
First of all, for those people that don't know me, I work in a computer shop.

This week, I sold a Wireless Router to my freind Guido.
Now Guido is a good family freind of mine. He does not have a lot of money as he does what ever job that comes his way (Labor, Courier Driver, etc). And he's currently living with me and my family (long story).

Guido buys a wireless router from me for his boss. He tell me that he's going to set up the router and the network for his current boss.

He's currently got a problem with the network and the internet sharing. And he's trying to get me to get me to fix things up for his boss.

PROBLEM..... Really Good Freinds* and Family I fix for free. Every one else I charge my usual rate of AU$80 per hour. And I charge as the company I work for any not myself**
I get guido calling me up telling me that there is a problem with the router, and he want's my experised to fix this up.
Guido :- I am having problem with the router. I need you to fix it for me as you are better at doing these things.
Me :- (thinking) His boss better be paying for it
Guido :- Don't worry, I will pay for it.
Me :- ********! I want your boss to pay for it. Not you. I am not taking your money.
Guido :- (Rattle one all these reason why his current boss is really good to him. And that he (Guido) feels that he (Guido) should pay for my survices)
Me :- (THINKING) **** Off... No. That is wrong!!!

The problem with Guido is that once he has his mind set, it does not change.

My problem is this. Total Strangers and Freind's Of Freind and Other People's Boss are in the same boat. They pay the company rate. I have seen this guy's car, and he can easily afford my survices.
And I do not want any conflict of interests between myself and work.
And if any thing was to go wrong, legally, medically, I want my boss to cover me.

Guido is a good freind of mine who does not have a lot of money.

Guido is a really good freind of my parents. If I take money from him, I am going to hear it from them too.

*Annoying next store neighbours that purchase a computer from me just so they can treat me like an on tap techie do not count of Really Good Freinds.

** The last time I time i moonlighted with any one. Some thing do wrong. Client (Annoying next store neighbour). It got messy. However my boss bailed me out with a warning of "DO NOT DO THAT AGAIN"



What should I do?
* Do the job for free (NOT AN OPTION!!!)
* Not do the job at at all?
* Take his (Guido) money.
* Some thing else?

You could always contact his boss about it. I'm sure his boss knows who he is and knows his circumstances and would pay for it, seeing as he has to if he wants you to do the job.

imho, if its his for his business, the buisness should have had to pay for it in the first place, and then if it aint workin (prolly a simple problem anyway) it should also be the business

80? the hell, over here we charge around 10 usd per hour. I'll have that on mind next time somebody complains about the repairing cost of something.

I would try to get Guido's boss to pay up, but Guido may have already settled with him that he will get everything working so he calls you, and you will not get any other choice than accept guido's money, which isn't wrong, he just want to make up with you for the bother of fixing that, and maybe with all the other stuff you did for him in the past.
