I hate when people who think they have 'power' try to control me.
Someone is trying to manipulate me.
For their own gain, and I don't like it.
We had an agreement, and now he realises he can make more profit from me if he, in my opinion, 'fucks me about'!
It's not a big deal, no-one will die!
But if I don't agree to his new terms I will lose money, which in these times, makes choices hard.
But this is my first deal with the guy, and I feel if I back down now..well!
So I'm taking a stand.
He's not the only deal in town.
And I AM the MAP!
Arrogant?
I think he probably is! :¬)
Let's see how it pans out eh?
catchy little tune, sugar! and it seems a very appropriate one, too! xoxoxoxoxox
ReplyDeleteGood on you for taking a stand! In the long run, the money you might lose now may be a small price to pay for how you'd feel or what you might lose in the future.
ReplyDeleteI'm proud of ya, Map! xoxoxo
Love that tune, by the way. :-)
Sometimes you have to make a stand for what you believe in. It may be costly but you can't let people take the mick all the time.

Am I sending over a couple of the sons?
ReplyDeleteHey, you are the MAP---why take the shite from this guy
ReplyDeleteYou have an agreement, why back down
Stand your ground
Hope it all works out
I bloody hate it when people try & manipulate you into screwing you for more money to line their own pockets....grrrrr! Good on ya darlin for sticking to your guns. Hopefully this tit will realise he's not dealing with a pushover & even better will be if he apologises & re-negotiates more favourable terms.
ReplyDeleteI hope too that it works out for you.
Please follow up on this post, okay? Even if -- heaven forbid -- it blows up in your face. I'd like to know how it plays out.
ReplyDeleteSav; I stole that tune from Pearl's iPod! Hope she doesn't mind!

Scarlet; NO, people must not take the mick! It doesn't do my head good!

Jimmy; Yer alright pal, I think I can manage this one on me own. But I will keep the offer in mind.
:¬)
Clyde; It's no big deal, lirerally, but I won't back down, as me pal Tom Petty would say!
:¬)
Jayne; We'll see.

UB; Will do pal, there'll be no 'blowing-up' though, a little 'fizzle' maybe, but I'll come out fine either way.
:¬)
Good for you, map. You are a stand-up fellow, and I always knew it.
ReplyDeleteBrother Map,
ReplyDeleteI don't see it as arrogance at all. You have something at stake which is greater than a business relationship with this fellow.
Make your stand, he's not the only deal in town.

Leah; Thank you hon, how you doin'?

U; I think it is all going to work in my favour bro!
You are a man of principles and talent; keep standing tall right where you are. His kind usually slink off...toward the sewer. :)
ReplyDeleteBut yes, I do want to hear "the rest of the story". Because I want to hear about your victory over greedy, no talented know-it-alls.
hope; yes! it did all end in victory, a small victory , but a victory none the less!
