Is Your Money Bad Too? - GoFuckYourself.com

EscortBiz · 12-29-2002, 07:26 PM

In the past week I hired 3 people online to do different work for me, a designer a application developer and a DBA expert for a new project.

So before I hired them I spoke in detail with them over AIM and ICQ and they always got back to me right away, and they where always online.

So I send them all money to start working and here is where the bad money comes in.

The designer is all of a sudden not online for 2 days and does not answer email, so I send him an email saying if he does not get back within 5 hours I?ll make sure to contact PayPal.

He gets back to me right away saying there was a death in his family he is so sorry blah blah blah?

The application developer all of a sudden is not at his computer and I get a response from someone when I ICQ but the person says it?s his girlfriend and he?s out on an emergency his sister was in a bad accident. (I knew it?s really him)

So I said I know it?s you and im calling elance right now and showing them the log etc. All of a sudden just as I said that the so-called girlfriend says ?OMG he just walked in, hes real honest, blah blah?

The DBA expert was a total bullshitter once he got the money, I had him give it back and I hired a local guy.

Look on the bright side, maybe you've burned off enough flake bad karma in one shot to be in the clear for '03.

I like the way you think, I think you are the next Dr. Phil

hire evolving media, they are the best in the business

Yep. This is the major reason I work alone. I can't trust anyone not to get drunk or dusted as soon as they get $50.

Even more important than education or accumen is restraint.
All of the successful operators I know have this trait.

Never pay until the work is done. Especially on the net.

B_Maverick · 12-30-2002, 05:50 AM

A healthy dose of cynicism is a good thing when dealing with people over the net. Even though everyone you know may be honest and trustworthy, it's easy for a slickster to take you for a ride.

See it the other way around some time, I had to chase people for designs I did after I delivered for months. That is one of the main reasons I nowadays mostly ask half before and half after, until I know I can trust the one I work with.

Anyway it's always fucked when you are fucked

I have been jerked around for months and I finanally turned to someone well known in the biz and fuck Elance, they took my $25.00 signup fee and then said, don't contact us anymore, we don't do projects for pornographers and they haven't refunded my money. I tried Scriptlance.com, burned and burned and burned. Tried an independant and he never did the work, jerked me around for 3 months. And kept saying next week, next week and so on.

I wish I had the skill to do it myself.....

Site has been in a shitty state for sometime, but it will relaunch this week. "Finally"
