band'rectors be like

Post by bloke »

only a couple of them, to be very clear...

> I ain't answering no emails about no horns thirteen hours after you picked them up; I'm already at the Redneck Riviera, and ain't answering no emails - certainly not from people who work 330 days/yr.

> Yeah, it's a week before band camp, and no, I never got your repair quotes (that you sent to BOTH my school and personal email addresses, two days after picking up the horns) .

> Oh...Our payment for all of those repairs is late...?? [It's 90 days AFTER the Net 45 on which schools now insist.] Hmm...I guess I lost the invoice. Could you send me another copy of that invoice, please? (I suppose you borrowed some money from your children or siblings to pay your bills...?? I guess it's good that you've always lived below your means, paid of your house, and paid cash for all of your cars. I didn't, but - well - I get a paycheck deposited into my back account like clockwork, so...)
