Get the contract right
I just dont want my 20% after he has already had his 80%. Anyway at his renewal the necessary adjustments were accordingly made to the contract. Once I had agreed not to show his girlfriend of the time the pictures, he in turn signed:Originally posted by IDBIn fairness he was doing exactly as the contract stated... He was going, leaving you with 20% of his hooker's time... Afterall, you get 20% of everything he gets.
1. That I would get my 20% first, and that
2. If I wanted to exercise my option to take my 20% it would be contingent upon me being able to "get one up"
Of course the client had to sign a "mirrored" version of the new contract which took a bit of explaining. But hey I am not known as "Dodgyagent" for nothing.
Anyway once word got round that part of DAs terms of business included sessions with ladies of the night DA incorporated has become a preffered agency to many a contractor.
For all you girls out there, I am introducing a threesomes night before Christmas.

HAHA...being screwed by a contractor. Always a first eh dodgyOriginally posted by DodgyAgentThe worse thing that has been done to me by a contractor was when the two of us took a couple of hookers to a hotel in London after a day on the piss. The bastard did a runner leaving me to pay the pimp for the two of them.

sloppy seconds
that is what he said. But the same contract also says that I get 20% of everything he gets, only my contract should have said that my 20% comes firstOriginally posted by The Lone GunmanAs I keep telling my agent Dodgy, when the agent pays, effectively the contractor has paid as the agents money is a sub set of the contractors money.
