won't do it but contact you anyway for what you originally stated....?

I'm trying to fill some slots to finish some book deals.   I had posted what stats-in general I wanted and what the offer is-what the model[s] get.

[[Wasn't here BTW]]

So i get an email from this models 'agent' [[Note-BF]] and says this model is interested and does the kind of work I need.

Ok-cool.  Very pretty model and I can use her stats.   So I reply...comes back with this outrageous 'Will and Won't list and wants to CHARGE me $100 and hour.  :eek:

If I'm paying $100 an hour she better be making breakfast the next morning.

Yeah-it's been covered but it's one of those
"Can't this Mofo read!?!?!?" kind of things.

Couldn't think of a better reply than the one-liner you have written here:

This is why you discuss everything up front and don't give the model any $ until everything is settled.  smile

She might make it, but you probably wouldn't want to eat it
