I spend a lot of time fixing things, for myself and others. (Computers, electrical, plumbing, etc). While I learn a lot, I wonder sometimes if it would be better to pay a professional and do something else for which I am more 'valuable'. Do you do the same, and do you find it worthwhile?

I don't think it would be much of a company without the admin spending time hiring, or invoices being sent, or various other non billable things being done.

The installation technicians would have a hell of a time getting work done without the project managers doing all the preplanning.

There's no middle management, I'm supervising one colleague and basically make sure he has an appropriate workload that he can complete efficiently and competently.
