I love programmers, puppies and sunshine!

Sly_RJ · 01-12-2004, 10:56 AM

I feel ya there man. Programmers are not exactly on my "happy list" right now. If my new guy doesn't come through for me I'm just going to do the damn thing myself.

ytcracker · 01-12-2004, 11:00 AM

pradaboy · 01-12-2004, 11:18 AM

don't think they're all the same but they can be annoying for sure!

myneid · 01-12-2004, 11:22 AM

its not all programmers, just most of them. you gotta find a good one

sickkittens · 01-12-2004, 11:23 AM

Lemme guess they want to charge you for their time?

Tala · 01-12-2004, 11:23 AM

Don't hold back, tell us how you really feel.

buran · 01-12-2004, 11:24 AM

Most would get their asses whooped in less than 2 seconds...

Hey if your programmer doesn't come through, hit me up for details on me FREE CUSTOM PROGRAMMING promo...although all the other programmers hate it when I do things for free. It's always nice to get new clients and show them what I can do. It's definately worth it in the long run.

Ben-MensNiche · 01-12-2004, 11:41 AM

Hey, don't be hatin the programmers...hate the game ;)

I've been a programmer for a while, and I always do my bit

fuzebox · 01-12-2004, 11:42 AM

Should have contacted me.

programmers are slow and lazy as fuck. i havent met a programmer who can meet deadlines, usually fat ass dead beats who do a half ass job in the end because they are to busy wackin it.

Typically yes, the only reason I turn out stuff when I say I do is I don't wack until its done. Kind of a good incentive to finish the job lol.

MetaMan · 01-12-2004, 11:49 AM

tofu i would suggest using an auction site for scripts,
they are very good, and if the programmer does not finish the company pays the difference for the next highest bidder on the project.

Ok last spam I promise. We don't charge until the works done, not a penny upfront, not a dime till your satisified.

Sounds nice, but I've already tried similar deals, twice. I don't want free programming. I don't want cheap programming. All I want is finished programming. I don't even care what it costs, I just need the damn thing finished. I'm losing money. I don't like losing money unless it's at poker.

If this current guy doesn't work, I have another to try before I'll give you a go. I am offering repeat business, practically throwing money in faces, and nobody wants it!

Do you have any idea how frustrating that is?

Yep I'm sure it's really frustrating...if you don't want a free promo, how about this? 1 day turnaround time (if it's reasonable). If I don't give it to you when I say I will, badmouth me all you want.

Sly, if you ever need a php/mysql guy.. give me a hollar.
My man has been doing it for about 4 years now. He's very dedicated and works his tail off for those who hire him. Not uncommon for him to put in 22 hr days.

I'm just finishing up doing a chargeback for the last "programmer" I dealt with. At least Paypal hasn't closed my account yet for doing the chargeback. (knock on wood)

Shoot me an email if you have references and want to do a job for me:

jbabcock at mnsi.net

If you're interested, I'll send you the details and you can give me a quote.

Thanks.

Yeh, I have a list of about 5 more people to try. Slowly chipping away. The biggest problem is waiting to see if someone turns up to be a flake or not. I'm going to split up a couple projects so I can start testing out more people.
