No money no honey

I am discussing money with Farang D’s Thai boy manager by email. He sent me more web work and I responded that I had not been paid since April. The Thai boy responded “HOW MUCH???? And BE NICE!!!”.

He then said since I was a friend I should not talk like that. I said does being a friend mean I should not be paid?

Farang D has disappeared from view while his manager and I argue about this. The Thai boy still thinks my invoices for web work are a criminal conspiracy of overcharging. Farang D knows this is not the case of course, and his Thai boy is welcome to try to hire a Thai photographer for less than 10 000 B a day, or to try an Indian web designer who “can do everything for 2 500 baht”.

I looked up the statistics. The last 24 hours their web site received 24 bookings, making it easily the most profitable site in their business.

    Seems to me like it’s time to formalise your relationship with a contract, etc. That’s what they’re there for, to protect interests on both sides and cut through the BS.
