generalyl no, because the service they provide does not surpass the level of cursory facilitation of the transaction. -- nm - znufrii Dec 12, 08:09 8

  - depends on the case, but in general I disagree, because you have a much more direct relationship with them, as they work where you live. -- nm - znufrii Dec 12, 08:15 2

    - professionals are a different class altogether. -- nm - znufrii Dec 12, 08:14 2
      - professionals like trainers and hairdressers? -- nm - loosilu Dec 12, 08:16 1
        
        The distinction there is that trainers and the like usually have their fees set by the place of business, which takes a sizable cut in overhead. - znufrii Dec 12, 08:29
how about doctors and nurses? -- nm - loosilu Dec 12, 08:08 1
- priests and nuns! -- nm - lileve Dec 12, 08:09
