Tell her you'd love to give her the additional $400 but that would mean sliding your aforementioned sweet ass up and down the pole a few more times each night and, unfortunately, Biggy isn't too keen on the friction marks that kind of hard work leaves on your body. Yeah, tell her that.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09489424880198887882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23869235.post-1151614032987961222006-06-29T16:47:00.000-04:002006-06-29T16:47:00.000-04:00Who's the stud in the yellow visor?HOT!!Who's the stud in the yellow visor?HOT!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23869235.post-1151613951636835972006-06-29T16:45:00.000-04:002006-06-29T16:45:00.000-04:00What are the chances this might wind up on Judge J...What are the chances this might wind up on Judge Judy?

Thank her profusely for the work she did and remind her that you DID NOT ask her to do the additional work and, to be charged double the original AGREED UPON amount, is something that you cannot financially arrange at this point and time. <BR/>2. Suck it up and pay it.<BR/>3. Explain thoroughly that you would love to continue using her for future jobs but you will not feel comfortable asking her if she cannot stay within the parameters of the agreed-upon arrangment...maybe even draft up something that you both sign just so that YOU are clear...<BR/><BR/>I find that situations like these tend to be resolved easily and quickly if you stay away from blaming the other person and stick to your feelings about it. If you make her feel empowered...like she gets to make a decision about it...more than likely, you can come to some sort of resolution and maintain a neighborly relationship. <BR/><BR/>Maybe slip some Prozac in her coffee next time you see her, too...that may do the trick.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23869235.post-1151601350030394412006-06-29T13:15:00.000-04:002006-06-29T13:15:00.000-04:00as i read this entry, i thought to myself, "this i...as i read this entry, i thought to myself, "this is the same exact story you told me the other day on the phone." the only other extra thought i had was this: why do you think it is that we get embarrassed about things like this when it's the people doing it to us that should be embarrassed? maybe it's because we feel we should have somehow been able to prevent ourselves from looking like complete idiots. even though it's not our fault. even though, once again, we didn't mean to play the victim.minus fivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02878687181826931183noreply@blogger.com
