Very upset

May 16th, 2006 at 11:06 pm

Ok I have to vent, theres this guy that I met at a X-mas party about 2 years ago, he drives me crazy but I deal with him only because I market at his office Frown
Anyway to make a long story short he is always selling something, and of course I feel obligated to purchase only because we have a business relationship...it would not bother me as much if I could get a refund from my job but because this is really personal I can't Frown now I feel like this was a waste and should match this amount and add to my challenge money in which I intend to do but it's the point. I can't understand why some people always ask the same people over and over to purchase itmes, I guess because we are suckers Frown
Now here is my challenge update:

$15.00 money wasted
.44 rounded to the nearest dollar after grocery shopping
$21.50 Payday deposit
grand total now $422.11

    It's difficult when it's a customer! That's why the government does not allow employees to do this to their contractor/customers. Maybe you can tell him that you and your company have a policy not to do personal business with clients. It is a common ethics policy.

    Or, you can tell him that you cannot at this time, but to keep you in mind for the future.

    Or you can tell him that you can't buy from everyone, so to be fair to all your clients, you can't.

    You're not obligated to buy from him. Tell him you're paying off your last vacation, or use the ethics policy (office got on to you about buying from customers). If he's constantly selling stuff, he probably isn't in the best of situations at his own work anyway.
