I really had no idea where on Lemmy to ask this, so apologies if this seems like a bit of a strange place to post.

I’m a computer guy, but “fixing computers” isn’t usually my thing. However, I offered to migrate my veterinarian’s accounting laptop to a new laptop she had bought. This involved getting an old version of Quickbooks running on Windows 11, a bit of back-and-forth with login details for various accounts. Generally though, it was straight forward.

This took me about 4 hours (more, really). The only other time I did contractor work like this I picked my rate based on what my mechanic was charging - $95/hour.

So my invoice, for my tiny-town vet, is going to be $380. Can I get input from anyone on whether that’s high? The laptop itself probably only cost $500. Something that makes me feel a bit better about the number is that I’ve helped her out lots over the last couple of years and never billed her for it, despite her saying I should.

Thanks!
