Help for friends
About a year ago, a good friend who worked as a lawyer in a small firm approached me to provide him with financial assistance. There was no free money at the time, so I had to refuse.
A few days after receiving this request, one of the long-time clients just threw a small deal, the essence of which is very simple: we put, we did not pay, the claim has already been sent. You need to make a claim, the deadline is until next Friday (almost 2 weeks).
I remember a recent dialogue with a comrade and I decide to pass on to him this little deal. The task is absolutely easy, especially for him, and the money pays very even not bad. Even if there are any bugs, I can fix it quickly enough. The Hero of History:
Oh badly, hi You asked for money, but the situation did not change.
No, has it not changed? Can you help?
Yes I can. But we have to work a little.
Just to borrow?
The answer immediately warned me, but I decided not to attach much importance to it.
Unfortunately only so.
I understand, tell me.
Listen to. The company appealed who delivered the goods on time and was not paid. The contract of supply is, the UDP too, even the act of summoning is signed. The complaint was already written, there was no response. You only have a claim, as soon as you write and send me, I will transfer you X money. It has to be done until next Friday.
I understand, I will think.
After reflecting a week, and, accordingly, losing half the term, Alexei agreed to work and received an el. Send a copy of all the necessary documents.
A few days before the deadline, the customer calls:
and hello. How is my business progressing? Will it all happen by Friday?
Hi Ivan Ivanovich, everything will be done, don’t worry.
I know I’ll go for lunch on Friday. If anything, call me for now.
All the good.
I call Alexis:
- Lozha, hello, the client called and was interested in promoting the drafting of the lawsuit.
You said it was until Friday.
Everything is so. I just call to remind you.
I remember everything, don’t have to control me.
and well.
On Thursday, the fifth point of the half-day felt the immediate approaching of adventures, but I didn’t want to believe it. At 5 o’clock in the evening, I still call the hero of history, and no one takes the phone. Well, I think anything happens, will call again.
No one called back at six o’clock, and at seven and eight o’clock. I try to call for about half an hour, knocking on all the messengers, no result.
I go into the profile of one of the social networks of his wife and see there fresh photos, in which she, her parents and Alexei himself are beautiful, sitting in the country, and consuming shillingdos under hot drinks.
I call his wife:
Olya and hello. I am looking for your husband, can you help me with this?
Hi, and what happened?
“Losha has to do some work tomorrow morning and send it to me. I want to know about his successes.
- So he left with the test for fishing, the waters were caught with him, they will only be on Saturday.
Are you serious now?
Yes of course.
Great, send him a greeting.
After 5 minutes, a message from Alexei comes: “I can’t, give it until Monday.”
Just great!
We have been working with this client for more than a year, and I don’t want to lose him at all. Fortunately, the scans of documents remained on the mail and you can not go to the office for the originals at such a late hour.
He did it himself and handed it over to the client the next day. Alexis called on Saturday night:
Hello, I didn’t have time to do everything. Let’s go until Tuesday, or I’ve been done here.
and hello. Did you work before or after eating vodka with a fish test?
In the sense?
“Ola told me what you’re busy with. And don't worry about the job, I did everything, gave the client and got the money too.
Thank you for helping a friend.
Why thank you? You are there, ohh.
(He dropped the call)
Guess who is the enemy of the people?
