Why do you think of them as the "Kirkhams" of the watch world?

They make a good line of watches...good materials and movements. Just not my cup of tea.

Tenth of an hour, actually...my chronos serve a business function. If you've dealt with many attorneys or firms, with up charges for everything from copying to overhead charges to cover the cost of Charmin, my billing practices might surprise you. I don't charge for everything, I discount my bills by 10% for what I consider to be bull****, even if it's not me engaging in in it, and my rates (being from Fresno) are a damn sight cheaper than the rates charged in LA or Frisco, despite the fact I serve the same markets they do throughout California.

The clients I had in 78 are still with me, and I represent the largest ag producers in just about every segment of ag out here, from flat cops (vegetables, etc.) to wineries to stone fruit packinghouses to wine-raisin-table grape growers to the dairy industry to commercial nurseries to grass growers (asparagus) to huge cotton operations and beyond.

We also represent non-ag operations, from mfg companies to one of our favorite clients...a high end strip club.

Want to know anything else?

Now...match the info I just gave with info about your own business and billing practices.
