Unless you've done that, a straight price comparison isn't valid, and you probably shouldn't be calling out Alan on it without checking to see.
Of course, if the services are comparable we should heap every ounce of humiliation on him that we can muster. Tarred and feathered, all that. Make him wear a scarlet "4" as a reminder that 89 is more than 85. I'm sure the forum could come up with a few other ideas.Comment
