    I cant really post the exact email, not professional, but I apologized for being late (by 4 days) and laid out why he was not getting my FLA or source, and how significantly it benefited him to work with me, i.e. you will have to start all over. I think that spoke volumes once he went back and read the contract – I don't think he reviewed it before signing, just looked at the price and signed on the dotted line.

    I did not take a "extreme position", in fact, this all started with a one sentence email from him ("send me the FLA today!")

    I don't dilly-dally, I just have way too much on my plate, which is probably the greatest lesson I am learning – how many projects I can actually handle at once. I have "cant-say-no" disease.

    • 4 days is not the end of the world. 4 weeks maybe. Dramatic are they?ETM
