Do you guys have minimum job sizes, how do you handle the small jobs you are asked to quote especially from major customers? I sometimes get tiny RFQs from customers often customers that I get a fair amount of work from. These are 1 off jobs that are less than an hour to 2 hours long. I find I spend as long or longer pricing material, typing up the quote, getting material, thinking about the best way to do the job, delivering or calling for pickup and then billing the job, than I do making the job. Unfortunately I have been doing a lot of little jobs lately. I do find I get much further ahead when I work on larger multiple week jobs even when I go over on the quoted time on the large jobs.
