There's a microwave repair store in my city.
There's always one person there when I dive by but never any customers. There's a neon open/closed sign that changes daily so someone is there.
No clue what exactly is going on there.
I mean, you can try to have them repair your microwave
They may do a lot of commercial or mail in repairs.
I've never had a microwave repaired, so I'm assuming they charge enough per customer to only need to do about one repair a week. Sounds like hard, honest work is going on in there to me.
Surely at that point just have people phone up when they need a microwave repaired though rather than sitting in a shop all day doing nothing
