      Actual Conference call discussion today:

      Conference call today:

      Client: What do you mean you can't redo all of our servers etc. by end of year?

      Me: Well that is only 3 weeks away and you haven't ordered any of your custom equipment or paid for us to get started on this.

      Client: But you sent us this contract 6 months ago why didn't you plan better?

      Me: Umm there is an expiration on that of 60 days. Without payment we can't start on a project of this size.

      Why oh why do customers think that IT must be magicians in December? Where were you 6 months ago when I spent hours putting that together for you?

        We sent you the contract six months ago, and you didn't pay. Did you expect us to just start working on it without getting something in return first?

              Maybe you should change the model to

              1. send a quote
              2. one week later send a bill for said quote

              When they come screaming to you - then explain that if they don't..... oh never mind. 🙂

                !@#$%^&()(&^%$#@#$%^&&^#@$%^&\

                Nothing I do today seems to work correctly. I even showed up this morning with my A game, well rested and properly caffinated. Easily on my 8th VM trying to get a stupid server working properly with ancient shitty programs that we can't afford to support and can't afford to replace. I feel like I've been caught in a recursive loop!

                  Must.
                  Fight.
                  Smarter.
                  Not.
                  Harder.

                                          That will teach you to stop drinking!
