The day after the 2016 election, I sent an email to the guy who contracts most of my services. He’s also one of my best friends. It was in response to a job we were working on, so I cc’d his assistant.
Basically said I was disappointed about the outcome of the election, then got into the job specifics.
From his response, I knew I fucked up. He just said he was glad the election was over.
I never liked his assistant anyways, but I looked up her voter registration and she’s Republican. And she’s totally the Trump type, though I hadn’t thought about it before.
She’s been pretty much on the warpath for me ever since. I provide a great service at a good price, so she keeps me around. Plus some clients know me and would possibly revolt if I were taken off their jobs. I think she’s been disparaging me to them for any misstep that I make.
I suspect she asks me for quotes and gives projects out to anyone who bids lower.
This was never the case with my friend; if I made a bid too low or too high he’d ask me to requote it. Yes,** if he thought my bid was too low, he’d tell me to charge more.**
Not so with this monster. She’s nickle and diming me for everything.
And now my friend’s health has taken a turn for the worse, and she’s in charge.
God I wish I never sent that stupid email.
