Except to say, telling somebody to go get a better job, just because he couldn't afford your rates (not that you weren't worth it) is just plain nasty, not to mention mean. Especially in this economic climate.
You missed the point. I bet even if I had told him I was only $50, he'd still say its too much. Why? Why do I know that? Because if someone doesnt have it, they'd had said, "its more than I was looking to pay",
or that they will have to get back with me,
or...
or ask for a discount...etc.
I find it absolutely ridiculous to stand behind this 'client'. Guy wasnt a client...he was a grade A timewaster. He was being nasty, mean, rude, childish, etc. by telling me, "oh thats too much" and then hanging up on me. Why glorify this guy? Is it not possible to see what this guy's intentions were? Its that simple. Im not going to pacify anyones rude comments.
Anyway, I dont want to fight anymore...group hug
