Listen to this one, last year around this time before christmas, I had a guy call me from one of my craigslist ads that was a telecommunications guy for all the surrounding prisons in the area. He wanted to get 15 of my crappiest machines with windows xp loaded on them cause they were gonna be loaded with a program to turn the prisons internet on and off (now as im typing this the reason kind of sounds like a bs reason, cause why would you need a machine to turn internet on and off, wouldn't you want to keep the internet on at all times lol??) . I told him $100 bucks each, he said okay. He asked me if he could get a discount, me not wanting to do the math for a discount I tried to say nope and he said okay thats fine. Well, I get to work loading windows XP on to these machines, Well I told him by the new year last year I'd have them ready, well I ran in to some problems, work and school and all that crap, I was a tad bit late on getting them done. Well I call the guy, no answer, I get pissed.. I seriously start calling the guy 5 times or more a day, well finally the one day he picked up, (probably sick of me calling all the time. ) I ask him hey I have the computers ready for ya. He's like " I'm not interested anymore" and hung up. Well lets just say I called him back and left him the nastiest message I ever said to someone. I also called the one local prison he did work for and I told them all about it and how he screws over kids in high school.. Life lesson for me, anything like this, I'm always getting a down payment first.
Not really a dumb or funny one, well now I laugh at my stupidity but thats besides the point lol. I did end up scrapping those machines though.
