I made a doll for a "friend" at work who had transferred to another town. The price was agreed upon to begin with and since I considered her a friend I went ahead and sent the doll to her. She never paid me So when she had a chance to come back and work in my office, my boss asked me if I had any objection. I told her that yes I did. So they didn't hire her to work in our office. She finally got a job in cleaning. Did I feel bad about it? Ha
Friends and relatives are the most difficult people to do "paid" work for.
