i had to hire a plumber last week for a leak in my kitchen sink . everything was great until i saw the bill . talk about sticker shock ! yeah those guys sure charge a lot . they know they are needed for emergencies , hah ! that 's what i was thinking . they already did the work , so i had to just deal with it . the price sure blew my mind though . he must have used gold pipes ! that is a trade that can get very messy . i respect guys that get arm-deep in sewage lol !
The unexpectedly high price caused the feeling of surprise.
