For real? It happend a few days ag, but I'm sitting here considering it now. We discussed paypal, epass, western union. Couldn't get paypal payment for a couple weeks for whatever reason (there were obviouslt LOTS of excuses here). Then we talked epass, and western union. I don't have my own epass right now but could get someone else to accept it, but we decide against epass and I finally settle on a western union money order, which should get here within a day or two TOPS. I'm waiting and waiting for the call to say my money order is in, so I get back in contact with my run around client and guess what the news is this time "Oh, my partner fucked up and mailed it post to you!"

WHAT THE FUCK? That shit could take forever to get here, providing it doesn't get "LOST IN THE MAIL". What fucking partner? I am working with YOU, don't give me this partner shit. Especially after a solid week of "your gf" or "roomate" responding to your online ICQ telling me that you're out of town for a week and will paypal me on monday" I sent two seperate money requests to two different email addresses. Apparently the first one I was given was "not the right address"...

All this time I keep asking when I'm going to get my money, and all i get is excuses and this bullshit about how "oh i have more work for you right after too..." This isn't the first time I had this problem working with this client either. I've done a couple banner/header type jobs for him previously which I had to chase for a week or so afterwords to get payment on. Do you seriously think I am going to do another job for this guy?

How the fuck do I even know if I'm getting payment here? I assume fully that I am getting screwed in the ass here at this point. Client offers to send an extra 50 dollars to me via epass for the troubles once I FINALLY get a hold of him again. Did he forget why I turned down epass in the first place??? I guess I could get someone to receive the epass for me, but now I can't get a hold of him AGAIN...

Basically if client reads this, you know who you are and I want a real answer. If I don't get something soon there will be an open callout, right now it's just raging after all the designer/client sided arguements lately...
