Narrator: The following was taped in front of a live studio audience… NOT!
Hello everybody and welcome to the LAST entry of 10 Questions, the place where I answer up to ten (10) questions sent in by my friends and followers in Trinidad and around the globe. I’m going to answer all questions honestly (even the personal ones). Today I’m going CSR style and I’m going to answer all her questions, So lets get straight to it shall we…
Have you ever been fired? – CSR
I’ve never been fired from my professional job, but from freelance work I have been duped twice. One time I had been hired to come up with a logo for a ‘social’ company. I came up with something they liked and they wanted to immediately use it. Of course I need to be paid first, so I told them that it can only be used once I’m paid. They assured I’ll be paid once I removed my watermark and stupid me did and guess what… I’ve never been paid. A second time a designer from company contacted me to help them out with a website for a real estate company. I was working on another project at the time and so I declined. They then asked me to do at least the logo for the company. I agreed to that and requested a down payment to start. I didn’t hear from them, so I never started work. The contacted me about a month later to ask for the logo. Told them that I didn’t receive any down-payment so it wasn’t done. They apologized and asked if I could do the logo once more, but they needed it within 3 days. I told them I will do it, but for a larger fee. They agreed. So I did the design and sent it to them, without payment. They used it on their website and I was never paid. Calls and e-mails went unanswered.
What is something that you regret? – CSR
I try not to have any regrets in the things I do. Sometimes though things happen in life that make you question the decisions you have made. If I had to choose something I’ve regretted I’d probably choose the decision I took to turn a close friend into my girlfriend, because when the relationship didn’t workout I lost something very valuable, a deeply rooted friendship and to this day, it still haunts me.
What gives you the creeps? – CSR
The creeps? *googles*…
” creeps [kriːps] – pl n – (preceded by the) Informal a feeling of fear, repulsion, disgust, etc.” – The Free Dictionary.com
Well lets see here…there is this one person at the office, she totally disgusts me. Her attitude towards work stinks, she lies to your face and behind your back, she stole a chocolate from my desk this one time because apparently “I told her she could take it”… that’s what she said. She listens in on conversations that she is not included and when I spoke to her about it she responded with “next time talk softer”. Yeah, she is a nut job and I’m disgusted by her. Does that count as creeps?
Have you ever found yourself attracted to someone of the same sex? – CSR
Have I ever… Have I Ever!… nope. Guys are just not appealing.
Are you the type or have you ever been the type of friend you’d want for yourself? – CSR
Two words… Hell Yeah!! I take me to the movies, buy myself dinner, hell I’d even sleep with me… wait that would make me.. um… a direct violation of the previous question. But seriously, I take friendship very seriously.
This brings us to the end of 10Questions. No more… good riddance…. see you guys on Diary of a madman.
