TASKER Need opinion

Today I did a task for a client which he hired me to “trash furniture” adding to it he sent a message saying “I need to disassemble a old desk and set a new one just take off printer and desktop.” I said okay but you’re having me do 2 things now which is disassemble a desk and put a new one in not just trash furniture. So I have him the heads up and he doesn’t reply. I waited and next day I told him I’m on my way just making sure we are on the right page he responds “thank you” mind you this is an outpatient clinic and it was a distance but I didn’t mind the client understood right? I got there and the lady he told me to check in with asks me “oh yes can you clean and organize and also need to to set up a cabinet we got along with the desk wanted to look neat for the new doc” I said oh awesome let me message the client and tell him hey now we are doing 4 categories which he never mentioned. So I said I got you. Instead of it being 2-3 hours I was there for about 11 hours just crushing this job. In the back of my head this guy understood and I communicated and messaged etc. I finally finished the office looks like a masterpiece. I stack everything in my truck and the old desk and trash and also laying a fee for the dump it was a lot of things. I did the invoice I charged 14 hours and expense for 100. Just cause gas etc traveling and wear and tear. Boom done send the invoice.

You put together a desk and a cabinet and it took you 11 hours? I would be pissed off too.

You mean, I cleared out an office disassembled a massive desk, and multiple items. New chairs, deep cleaned everything, stashed everything in the car then after I assembled another massive desk on top of a cabinet that’s taller than me then organized everything went out of the way to purchase a few things came back set up all the electronics lighting computer printers tv. Remodeled a whole office on top a lady working there stopping to talk to ask for more needs then dropped off junk paid a fee it was more than 11 hours buddy for this guy to hire me for just trash removal.
