Do You Think If Someone Gets Screwed Over By A Business Partner...

So Lee, I think what you are saying is that someone was warned, then took the plunge, and got burned.

Yep, I would say sucks to be them. Back home in Iowa we had a saying for JUST those circumstances:

I TOLD YOU SO

:smoke:

Yep, I have to agree with that sentiment. You can try your darndest to warn some folk, but they'll go ahead and do what they're going to do regardless.

You'll never hear me repeating gossip.

so you better listen closely the first time.

As we all know sometimes a business will get a bad rap just because they pissed-off the right person, a person with a lot of contacts and friends in the industry. This person can then spread some malicious shit about a company and they get a bad rap.

How do you know if that company really rips people off or if it's BS?

Anyway I do know this...being that I was a "NEWBIE" to this business and did not know anyone or even really where to go to check out someone, I got screwed. that being said I think if someone had warned me, I would have listened, it's not worth taking the chance.

After things have gone bad, I don't think its a good time to rub it in...better to be supportive and try to help someone instead. Its all about karma, man, gotta keep it positive all the time.

I have sympathy for people screwed in our business, whether they knew of someones jaded history or not.

We all do the best we can and try to muddle through things. Everyone makes mistakes and some have to make their own mistakes instead of learning from others, there's nothing wrong with that.

However I have no sympathy for those who screw people over, and then get screwed themselves. Karma is a wonderful thing :sunny:

Having been screwed over...I try and learn from the experience so it doesn't happen again. I can find myself getting a little paranoid so I need to check that at times.
