pissed off

this morning, and maybe i shouldn't be!

so i've issued my 2nd invoice to a company i'm doing work for and the guy i used to work with has sent me a bunch of questions asking if i'll reconsider one of my pieces of work...in the scheme of the entire invoice it is for 2.5 hours of my time, which is probably less than it took in reality! and in an invoice of $8,800 (for his company) it's $454! seriously.....

he has told me that other people often think he is nit picky and manages them tightly with costs, and i previously hadn't experienced that; until this morning!

leaves me feeling less than inspired to do what i need to do for them today i can tell you...

then there's the other side of me who appreciates that he's probably getting pressure, it's his job etc. etc. and/or maybe he just wants to let me know who is boss...

and all this after i did some work for his Mum, and when i sent him the amount, he said 'I'm sure it's more than that'...

i do not overcharge people and maybe that's what i'm angry about....

anyway, i politely responded to his email and told him that i was more than happy to talk about it - which of course i am - in fact, I would have preferred him to call me with his questions rather than send a very professional/cold email....

pretty fucking pissed off.....
