Best excuse yet...
A new guy was meant to start work for me today but yesterday i got this e-mail from him.

"Hi darren I can not start work for you tomorrow as my computer blew up and killed the cat. I am e-mailing from my mums. Sorry."

WTF.

reliability is the #1 thing for me in this biz. It could be real, but on your first day you go out and get it fixed or if not take a pic to prove it.

just don't post the pic on your page after he sends it..we all know where that can lead.

hmm, maybe webmasters should have to have references before they buy cats.

Reliability is number one in business, period.

That is the excuse of the month, ask him why his cat was using his computer?
