Consulting fee implemented
A woman I knew from a long ago time just contacted me. First she called, but I rarely pick the phone up these days unless I know the person well. I haven't spoken to this woman in 3, maybe 4 years.
She reached out again on Facebook Messenger asking me to help her son brainstorm ideas for a medical school statement essay. I'm ok with helping...for a fee.
I don't help people who blow me off until they need something for free. I messaged her back and said I was happy to help, but I would need to work out my consulting fee before I spoke to her son.
And now I wait. Most likely this will be the last time I hear from her. Perfect.
If she agrees...then cash. Yah!
Either way, I don't get taken advantage of by some rando.
UPDATE: She was totally off and responded with, "Oh ok. No problem."
I let her know I'd be waiting for her response and she replied, "I'll ask B and let you know."
What this means is that I got rid of a time mooch. My time is precious and I don't like being taken advantage of by people who blew me off years ago.
