3. A woman sends the following email to a local repairman: "I will pay you $600 to come and repair four storm gutters on my garage this Saturday morning, the 23rd. It should take you about 3 to 4 hours to finish the job." The repairman replies: "Sounds good, but my going rate for this kind of work is $750." When the repairman arrives at her house on Saturday, the woman is nowhere to be seen. He has turned down other work to be there. He doesn't do the job because the woman is not there to pay him.
