I'll let it slide this time. :winkwink:

My best excuse ever was that my great grandmother died. It was total bullshit. I had a new girlfriend that I wanted to hang out with. I told him I would have to put off starting the project for a week or so and he was very cool about it. When I finally got back in contact with the client about 8-9 days later, my great grandmother really did die.

I gave up and refunded his money and apologized for being a jackass. That was the last time I ever made up bullshit stories to put off a job. I'm lucky GFY wasn't around yet. I deserved to get publicly humiliated over that one.

adam i think his name is?

was ok with me, let me down though but still, he does work first come first served and a deposit with him speeds things up!

just out of curiousity seeing as this thread has alot of coders, how many of you jumped on this guy and msg'd him? heh

:1orglaugh Not me.. I don't have much time away from my own stuff to take on many contract jobs.. I tend to only take ones that interest me and where I may learn something interesting... I don't like those "short distracting" jobs.. and I'm too expensive for the majority of GFY...

I'm booked up myself as well but was just thinkin it'd be funny with coders defending him messaging the guy whos slamming him heh

good ol forum flame war

nice :)

PHP-CODER-FOR-HIRE you have not accept the project if you think you can't do it. why you let the guy wait for days?

How shut the fuck up with your horse crap. If you tell someone they can start and they accept, and then 2 days later choose someone else, the programmer could very likely come on the board and start trying to flame me out; why are you trying so hard to redirect PHP-CODER's problems to not being his?

Done a few differnt scripts for us and never had a problem with him

The problem is that he accepted the job, then left me hanging. I never recieved the message saying to look elsewhere so I waited.

If you don't put money down on a project, you are not on the schedule. PERIOD. How fucking hard is it for you retards to understand? When there is an exchange of money and a time estimate given then you have a deal. Until that it's all just talk. Jesus fucking christ customers are stupid. :1orglaugh

if no money was sent to him, then it isn't even a "started" project....except in a few circumstances when the programmer says "all right, I am starting now", but it doesn't even look like anything like that was said

sorry dude, he did nothing wrong, you just seem unorganized and expect unrealistic shit

i did
 

I needed some beer money and i was bored okay. I actually was just in tgp rotator fucking around this morning.

I contacted the guy, told him I would help him out. todays special $9.99 ...

20 minutes later he got the code I got my $9.99. big fucking whoop.

He seemed to be a very nice person from my perspective. I've worked for all kinds of asshats dipshits vampires morons cunts flakes jackoffs and dipshits over the years and he definitely was not any of those.

So if you have any more pissant jobs you don't have time to do send em to me I may be able to help sometimes.

...

doh !
 

whoops quoted the wrong guy... :conehead
no wonder I do piss ant jobs ...

No Jace, Kandah is just a fucking RETARD. Flat out.

Strange things.

oh oops wrong post.

No deposit = no job. End of story.

your clients are your bread and butter get off your fucking high horse ! yeah I said it now blacklist me somewhere for telling the truth. who in the fuck do you think you are ? you don't shit on people like that period. yeah they make your life hell but what the fuckk did you expect ? they dont sit around all day and read php books? you have to tell them up front whats up. i cant believe how fucking hateful you guys are. i wasn't going to say this shit yeah people are a pain in the ass. this has to be discussed upfront. you are the reason people hate fucking programmers. if your going to deal with the public you have to deal with the public man or not. I fucking suck at that. I'm the same way you just have to learn they dont know. its just php for gods sake we are not sending people to the moon here.

also for clients, demand list of exactly what will be done ! BEFORE the work begins. respect is due on both sides ! agree on EXACTLY what will be done before the work begins. I know its hard sometimes but that avoids this shit I'm sick of people downing programmers as assholes and non programmers and stupid ! its mis communication and that is exactly wht happened in this case

My wife handles the public relations of our operation...I just write the code. :D Works better that way...

right on
 

am I wrong ?
