Why do people need to make up an excuse every time - GoFuckYourself.com

JamesK · 07-09-2008, 05:52 PM

... they're looking for work on GFY? I mean, it's supposed to be a fucking business board. There's no need to be ashamed that you need more money and that you have nothing to work on at the moment.

Almost every time I see a designer or coder looking for work I see some bullshit excuses. I need a new iPod, I need a new TV, I need 21" rims... For fucks sake guys. It's not like you're doing something bad here. You aren't considered a failure if you're looking for more work, just because you need money. There's no need to post an excuse to make it acceptable.

I'm so tired of the way people act around here. I think all the pimps, huge stacks of cash and hot rides on every fucking webmaster related site have intimidated some of you.

IllTestYourGirls · 07-09-2008, 06:06 PM

I was thinking the same thing today. Money no how little is better than no money. We are all here to get what we can and maybe make some people some nice change.

Sly · 07-09-2008, 06:09 PM

To tell you the truth, I think it kind of makes people look bad when they say things like that. I don't really put much thought into it and I don't really care, but my initial thought is "wow, you are whoring your self out for a measly iPod?"

Guys... we don't need reasons or stories, just say you have time available and you are ready to work. :-)

polish_aristocrat · 07-10-2008, 02:49 AM

true, this board is built around egos and board personalities and everyone "needs" to be a player here

then again, being here since 2002, wouldn't you feel bad, if you were forced to make a thread that you're willing to do grunt work for $10 per hour cause you have problems paying your bills

tranza · 07-10-2008, 06:57 AM

Nice post! Agreed!

Good point PA, however I quitlaw school to play music and (sure wish I had more $$$ sometimes) but am a fuck of a lot happier and infinately more fair than many of those now yuppies....

as per...I'm just sayin'

raven1083 · 07-10-2008, 08:11 AM

i was thinking it the same way!

JeffCliff · 07-10-2008, 08:32 AM

If I needed new rims I would just jack them off some wigger's car. He can afford new ones

Some people REALLY are in need. In my case, I got an unexpected illness between jobs and spent two months in the hospital while my rent and utilities went unpaid (just got a 60k hospital bill). When I got home, I was on oxygen and was told to expect a long recovery. I still have limited mobility, which makes it hard for me to get a regular job, so this is my only option.

I placed a few posts here looking for work and although i got some well-wishes and bumps, nobody contacted me. In some cases, I was ridiculed (not that I didn't expect that on GFY).

I don't want a fucking ipod. I want to pay my rent and utilities. If getting people's pity is a means to that end, that is what I will have to do then. When you have nothing, you have nothing to lose. It is a very humbling experience.

CaptainHowdy · 08-09-2008, 09:59 AM

I need free money ...

Babaganoosh · 08-09-2008, 10:07 AM

I always make up an excuse so I don't have to admit the money is for beer and hookers.

True dat.

Furthermore, why don't these same designer and programmers be honest that once they get the money, or complete the project to pay their bills, buy what they want, they will flake out and start in wiht the 'designer classics' with grannie dying 10-12 times on your next project.

Fucksakes · 08-09-2008, 10:15 AM

people without jobs don't have a job for a reason.

I always need more money thou :P

Professional excuse maker. Here in town we have a greeter at Wal-Mart with no fucking arms. Not even stumps. They are gone at the shoulder. If he can make it to work, so can this putz. Fuck him and his pity story.

fris · 08-09-2008, 10:56 AM

Are you forgetting the 15+ threads from the "players" on this forum about how if a designer on GFY promotes themselves for work it's because they suck and don't have clients lined up...

Saying you want the cash for something specific takes the heat off...

Sorry but the egos on this forum are pathetic.. I used to sell directv, dish and fta satellite equipment.. Hells Angels and various real gangsters had less ego than 90% of the people on this forum..
