Being a shitlawyer on thumbtack was the most demeaning work I've ever done

Date: October 17th, 2018 6:54 AM Author: multi-colored onyx pit fanboi I just saw a thumbtack commercial and was reminded of when I first moved down here and used the app to get many of my cases. It's the same app you use if you want to hire a plumber or lawn guy.
This is when I was doing flat fee divorces, too. I took one for $2,500 and I'm *still* working on it. I'm not a scumbag and won't withdraw, but I've probably spent close to 300 hours working on this case. |

Date: October 17th, 2018 7:09 AM Author: multi-colored onyx pit fanboi Sure there is. Someone paid me a flat fee to do a job. I'm not going to pull some bullshit reason out of my ass for why I can't do that job. It sucks and it's a lot more complicated than I initially thought (and was initially led to believe), but my word's all I've got. Luckily, it seems like we'll be able to resolve this within the next couple months. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4108659&forum_id=2#37040820) |

Date: October 17th, 2018 7:07 AM Author: multi-colored onyx pit fanboi Yeah, but I wouldn't be able to wagecuck unless I absolutely had to. My problem is that I'm too outspoken and confrontational and would not make it through the interview at some shitlib-infested tech company before telling them exactly how I feel about gender studies, the patriarchy, and LGBTQ shit.

Date: October 17th, 2018 8:50 AM Author: Brilliant gunner goal in life You've done 300 hours of work for a flat rate of 2,500 and don't even have the balls to renegotiate the rate?
I'm glad you're not working on ARE trade deals.

Date: October 17th, 2018 9:05 AM Author: multi-colored onyx pit fanboi It's not about having the balls to renegotiate. I've withdrawn on plenty of cases for legitimate reasons. The problem here is that I fucked up by not doing a thorough enough initial interview and by charging a flat fee for a divorce. That's not the client's fault; it's my fault.
