A quick “this isn’t going to work”, and then I beeline for the exit.
I’ll forgive 5-10 lbs., but more than that or any attempt to hustle
me (e.g. “I get paid upfront”) ends in an immediate dismissal.
Too many fish in the sea to put up with that kind of crap.
I‘ve had a few stunned faces, the rare angry frown, and the
occasional bitchy follow up text, but that’s all.
They know they’re being deceitful and they know the drill. Trust me.
