does anyone have a silly friend out there w/a ton of DUMB ideas that they want you to jump on board with them on?
There's this lady here in town that just won't... STOP...
She keeps trying to get me to help her develop her ideas on this 'you're my friend - help me with this idea' basis... and it's really getting on my last nerve.
I'm trying to be nice... I just sent her this:
"Ugh... I could call you all day long... :)... problem is I am sooooo busy at the moment.
I can give you the artwork I’ve done thus far (illustrator files) – do you have another designer that you ‘trust’ or could work with? Perhaps you may even want to contact the Art Institute of Phoenix and see about hiring a student (cheap! And they need experience!... they’d be just the person to work with)...
... the thing is – I don’t have the time to sit and work with someone on a one-to-one basis... I need to just produce right now. :)
Let me know if you want the files... they’re all yours...
... I don’t see my schedule ‘opening’ for the next few weeks either (probably even a couple of months – I just took on a major site) – I can’t spare the time unless you have an investor and money... else, I’d be the investor so-to-speak... and I can’t be in that position right now as I’m financially strapped.
make sense? :)"

so that's it... I'm trying to be really kind... maybe too kind? I just DON'T HAVE TIME... and don't know how to make it any clearer to her without coming across rude...
(which would be really easy - this is a 36 'woman' who lives in one of her parents homeS... I don't think she's ever had a 'job' that she really excelled at (although she sure 'talks')... I think she's just bored)

maybe she just wants your pony boy juice?

You should've just wrote 'FUCK OFF', instead of using every excuse in the book.
- jerk0
isn't it obvious. she doesn't want your creative, she wants your boy pony.
- PonyBoy0
those weren't excuses though...
...and saying Fuck Off is rather difficult for me to do - I've only burnt one bridge (well... on purpose.. :) )... and I admit... it felt good.

I really don't 'need this' today...
"That's so not fare Kevin...This is my baby and I already told you I'd pay you what you normally get. I left several messages about that already so you would "take this seriously." I could give a rats ass about **** and their idiotic half assed mediocre condos...yet you are taking their stupid work over mine...who I brought to you. They who never pay anyone and screw people over...they who are a joke to begin with and in whom I would never trust...***who screws people over left and right...including his architects. I would be very careful around a peron like that wh will get his in the end...poor ethics in business always catches up with people...so watch out who you get into bed with.
I beg you to Please reconsider, this is so important to me and it is so easy to do. You should know by now that this would be a quick buck for you as I am fairly easy to work with and less demanding than others, mainly because you get me so quickly. I will bring over a check today as a holding fee for your work if that is what you want...As far as my invvestors go, I have all my investors in line...including the billionaire owner of the Suns...whose wife's a close friend of mine. SO PLEASE DON'T UNDER ESTIMATE WHO YOU THINK I AM, the people I associate with, and this project in general. **** to me is a peone nobody in my book of contacts and I don't appreciate this snub from you after everything...I understand you're busy but come on this is me I thought I could rely on you as a friend...I have given you plenty of time to work on your other projects...all I ask is that you squeeze me in...where on earth did this come from. Because of the **** thing? I have no idea. But I already told you that I can pay you out of my own pocket for this important part of my branding image. I would never ever expect this from you as a friend. And you are the only person I want to work with on this...Don't give me that call thew AZ institute bozo's crap...that is not for me! That's who **** should call seriosly because that's his speed...he has no taste to begin with nor do his meathead jock slimey sales goons...
I'm sorry if you're having a bad day but please don't take it out on me. I have always stuck by you and think you're super talented."

my cell phone just rang twice in a row... it was her both times... she doesn't 'get the hint' when I don't answer the first time...
... I'm out of my mind here... is it me or did she talk down to me... then pick me back up... then talk down to me again... then pick me back up again... then kiss my ass to 'top the cherry'?
