Yep it's about grand prix cars. I got another PM from him responding to my not interested PM. From the way it's worded he's shooting in the blind to many people as he can.

Since I have almost 2000 PMs right now, I think I will pass and looking back through them. (Although, maybe I will make my New Years' resolution be to go through and delete my old PMs!)

I *believe* I just "fired" this guy... no he was not on my staff I mean as in I quit working for him - What? You didn't know? Ohh yeah you can fire clients... it's not the norm as that means less income but when you realize it's an absolute nut job your dealing with you simply do what you have to do. I can live without the money if it saves my sanity and sometimes they want you to work 8 hours a day for < $50 and that is not possible for all based on various reasons - if you find a trustworthy coder who can work that many hours for that amount of money like I also just told someone else "grab them, hug them tightly and never let them go" because 8 hours for $50 and its coding/design, that is a bargain .

Edit: Also by chance did the grand prix guy want to check every single edit on his list one-by-one via skype? PM me that I'm really curious because I finally told him that is hourly support the norm is completing an entire checklist then having the client confirm the changes... going one-by-one makes the checklist turn into and redundant time munching "be-in-the-way".

Ironically, i think we're all talking about different people as it turns out. However, I'm working with the grand prix guy who has the big checklist but it's certainly far more than $50. I"m fine with it as I can work on it in my downtime. I'm just as tedious with my own hand-made html tidy.

Ahh so this is the man that decided to photoshop a private message between myself and him then place on his blog - I feel for you bud he's a class act for sure because anyone willing to photoshop a private message will justify his means to any end .

You all be careful out there, I don't just mean those looking to have work done but those doing the work as well .
