I hate government contracts. They give you a list of rules that apply only to you, never to themselves. Then there's the concept of cash flow...
Me: I'm calling to find out when we're going to get paid, or why we haven't been paid.
Them: Which months are you questioning?
Me: July, August, September, October, November, December and January.
Them: I don't know. Have you called before?
Me: Yes, in August, September, October, November, December, January and February.
Them: Oh, I see. Yes, your revenue is in the system.
Me: That's what you guys always tell me. I need paid - NOW.
Them: What's the problem? I said you'll get paid.
Me: Does your employer pay you with revenue? My employees prefer cash, and they like it every two weeks. They're funny that way, I guess.
Them: Oh...
Idiots!
Seriously who in the heck is so important that he can't take a minute or two to "drain the snake".....
