Master Don Juan
I have gotten my head torn off more than once for saying it but time and time women go out of their way to prove me right. I will hire a woman, but i will not work with one as a busienss partner, or work for one. i dont' give a **** how much money it costs me, women (for the very very most part) are just not good business people.
I was reminded of this fact last week (while the site was down).
In my web business, I have some partner comapines I deal with. There is this one company I deal with that is larger than we are, and they throw us work from time to time when they are overbooked, and we throw them a discount. benefiting relationshipo.
Well I have become friends with the owner and he came to us last week with a job, hell we are overbooked, so I had to turn it away. I recommended someone I knew could do the job for him.
He comes back to me and he found this WONDERFUL PROFESSIONAL woman to that works in romania to do the job for him. I bit my toung at this point.. it's not my business, I can't tell him who to do business with. And hell from the sound of it she knew her ****. There are exceptions to every rule.
god this was not one of them lol. The epic failure of this woman ought to go in the hall of fame of why women should just cook. It got so bad we ended up taking the job anyway for him (actually 3 jobs) even though we are overbooked just to help him out.
So he finds her Tuesday. He sends her the three jobs he needs, descriptions of all of the jobs. He asks her to confirm she has all the files to start and that he would need some type of progress report to give to the client the next day. This is Standard operating procedure.
Okay, Wednesday shows up. She says she "found a virus" in his site and had to remove it (the guy has a staff of like 20 people in his office, the guy is a tech himself, first of all if there was a virus in the site he damn well could get it out himself, but there was no virus). AT this point he really didn't want to say.. I mean the oviobus is ilke ***** we sweep our site once a week.. i would damn well know if hterew as a virus in our site.. but hey maybe there was. so she says she got it out for him. He's like okay that's great... So where are my progress reports. So she says "how can you expect me to do these when you have a virus in your site! (she actually said this). And everytime he asks for the status report, she says how long she had to spend in his site getting the virsues out.
so at that point he's like whatever. HIS BS meter has went off but she is a woman and she does from a technical point, know what she is talking about. She said that at this point she had read all three documents and that there will be no problems the next day and he will have what he needs (this is important). He asks her is she sure, she says yes of course.
he had one client he really needed to send an update to, so he says look, I need you to send this in the next 5 hours (she said they had been working on it all day) and she says okay.
"so 5 hours pass (by now it's Thursday) and it's not there.
So he calls her up, and says hey.. where is this.
She says that She has questions about the project, and that the project scope is not clear.
he's like what the **** a minute, i sent this to you two days ago and you arejust now telling me this?
this is where it gets funny. He's like okay.. what are your questions do you have and i will answer them so you can move forward. And she goes on for literary, 2 hours, no joke, about how she can't do anything until she gets her questions answered. she cannot be expected to send him an update if she does not know what to do. he's like okay, ask me the questions so i can answer them. she's like i can't send you an update if i don't know what to do!
at this point i'm crying laughing.
Then, on the other two jobs, she says that she needs to "go over the information with her team".. (she did not read the project descripotions like she said she did).. This is now 3 days after she got them.
So then he literary, copies the conversation from skpye and shows it to her where she says she read it, and she says A"how can you expect me to send you an update when i've been getting virus out your site all day yesterday!"
Then on the 3rd of the three projects, she promises him that it can be done in 2 days and she will have it done in 2 days. I know beyond of a shadow of a doubt it's a week job and if she could do this **** in 2 days, than i would hire her my damn self. But she promises him that it WILL be done in 2 days.
So; friday comes and she sends him a link to a job that is about 15% done and she says "it's done".
Then he says dude, this is not close to being close to being done. she says "well how can I get this done when you did not send feedback"...YOU SAID IT WOULD BE DONE YOU STUPID *****! NOT ONLY THAT, she had the feedback, which she said she did not have, she just overlooked it for 4 days.
So in 4 days of talk, she had done pretty much nothing whatsoever, make promises she could not keep and know he has lied to clients becuase of what she told him, then when confronted by her own words, she dodges the issue and bs's her way. She started crying (he says) on the phone when he gets mad at her after all this.
At this point I felt bad for the guy and I took on the jobs even though we really did not have room but he has thrown us alot of work and I was not going to let him go down like that.
