This woman hired me to do a job after a very lengthy interview and evaluation process. It was almost insulting, as I have several years of experience, but I needed the work.
She wanted me to compile a list of companies affiliated with party-planning. She wanted 10,000 names, addresses, phone numbers, emails, etc! I was then expected to call all of these people and pitch Ms. Annechino's services as an event planner. Then, after each call, the list had to be color-coded per Ms Annechino's specs, and a summary report had to be written up and turned in.
This project would have taken about 25 hours to do right. Terrie told me that I should have it all done in five hours, and that she would pay me $10 an hour. When I told her that the project was going to take longer, Terrie replied: "well, five hours is all that I have in the budget!"
Every time I disagreed with what Terrie said I would get the response: "I feel that you are attacking me!".
