A short transcript excerpt from a YouTube video by Mike Andes showing a pricing negotiation for a lawn mowing job. Speaker B quotes a rate (phrased as a per-minute/per-man charge), and Speaker A objects to the per-minute framing, offers $60 for the job to be mowed by tomorrow, and rejects paying "$1.50 a minute." The clip illustrates customer-supplier negotiation over pricing and scheduling.

$1.50 per minute ("a buck and a half a minute")

$50 per minute per man ("$50 per minute per man")

$60

All right, slow down. Are you telling me it's a buck and a half a minute? That's your price.
So for the. For the initial MO, it'll be a $50 per minute per man.
Per man? How many people are you sending? All right, look. I want it mowed no later than tomorrow. And I will pay you $60, but I won't pay you a dollar and a half a minute. So if you want my business under those terms, fine. If not, I'll find somebody else.
