What else do you want? My soul?

As some of you may or may not know, but one of my other jobs is working for a small sports photographer as a part time assistant. It was working out pretty well making a few extra bucks on the occasional weekend every month or so on top of 2 other jobs & school.

Things haven’t been to great for the company in the past month and we haven’t been able to keep up with the work. Being the nice guy that I am I tried my absolute best to help out whenever I could. I didn’t pressure him for pay either this month since I knew he was struggling just to break even at events.

This past weekend I wasn’t able to work for him, but I still some how got suckered into working! It ruined a lot of things I had set aside for my family, my friends & school. I ended up working anyway and I was not happy.

Last week I was supposed to stop by and help him process a **** load of orders, but I had to call him and tell him I wasn’t going to be able to because of my other day jobs, family obligations & finals at school. Well the guy is pissed at me for not being able to work! I haven’t heard from him since the last time I called him Monday so I emailed him to check in and apologize for being so so busy and I also asked him about my paycheck. He responded to my email today with this:

“Yes, I have your check. I also would like to talk to you about the
status of your relationship with the company.”

What do I say to that? I do my absolute best to help this guy out but I have my own life to deal with too!
