| Need to vent... without hearing I told you so. My friend went on vacation to Hawaii on the 31st through 9/11. She delivers newspapers in the morning and at the last minute her sub backed out, so I agreed to do it. She offered me $400 and I was under the impression she would pay me upon her return. Today she sends me a thank you thank you email and then goes on about how they get paid once a month and she hoped to pay me before her 10/6 profit check but she has some prearranged payments and it looks like she can pay me on the 25th. I think she means the 25th of October!!! I've emailed back for clarification and am still waiting to hear back. I'm just stunned. What do I say or do? She obviously won't have the money to pay me sooner. I spent over $300 in gas alone..... little did I know I'd get such cruddy gas mileage. Plus my daughter and her friend helped, so I have to compensate them. I'm just tapped right now..... grrrrr

| Not right....You did her a favor its not like she was doing you a favor. She should pay you now or at least give you half the money. I would definately tell her that you cannot wait until next month for the money. |

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | If your friend can afford a trip to Hawaii - then she can afford to pay you NOW. You didn't agree to any prearranged plan - and whatever HER pay schedule is - it's her problem - I would go to her house and talk this out face to face - that is so not fair to make you cover your gas when you were saving HER butt....especially since she was the one on the exotic trip - if someone had been in the hospital or she was ill - that would be different I can't believe people...I really can't. |

| Definetly tell her how you feel and that you just cannot wait that long for the money!! You helped her out as a friend, now its time she live up to her obligation. Just keep your cool so you dont lose out on your money all together if it turns into a big fight..you know what I mean? Dawn |

| Not much of a "friend" there. That is so unfair to you. She knows how much you had to use out of your own pocket just for gas, not to mention you time and wear and tear on your car. How rude can a person be?

| Thanks guys. She meant the 25th of September. Shew.. I'm not so bent now. I would have liked the money sooner, but I can live with the 25th of THIS month.
