Bullshit Clients Options

[pandora]

Ok I really hate bullshit clients. Some guy just IMed me, on my personal AIM account, and I was on a conference call with another client and a developer so it took me a while to respond.

sirmoshalott: i really need you to respond a bit faster.

What the f**k?

sirmoshalott: i own eightohhthree.net
sirmoshalott: i need some work done

Good for you?

sirmoshalott: can i see some of your work?
pandora: i'm not accepting any more projects at this time
sirmoshalott: well you know someone?
sirmoshalott: im willing to pay top dollar
pandora: how much is "top dollar" to you?
sirmoshalott: im not going over 2000$
3:00 PM
pandora: sorry i dont know anyone that will work for that low.
sirmoshalott: are you serious
pandora: very serious.
sirmoshalott: how much do you work for?

then he bumps up the price all the sudden:

sirmoshalott: you mean that people wont make you a web site for 20000$?
pandora: you might be able to find some low budget designers
pandora: i dont know any personally.
sirmoshalott: not 2000$ but 20000$
pandora: you said 2000 earlier
sirmoshalott: everyone locally around here sucks
sirmoshalott: i meant 20000

Uh.. flight risk alert. I'm pretty sure this guy meant 2000 and then added a 0 after I said that was low budget.

pandora: i dont know anyone that would want to work with you anyway
sirmoshalott: why?


pandora: you may want to change your attitude if you are looking for a designer to work with.
3:10 PM
sirmoshalott: i have one
sirmoshalott: buh bye
sirmoshalott: my designer owns, myspaceownage.com
pandora: good for them.

that site sucks.

and holly i know you worked on this eightohthree site, or at least i'm pretty sure. i hope you didn't refer this guy to me.
