The Cultivation Confessional Booth - The OFFICIAL Cultivation Off Topic Discussion - Cultivation Confessional

I confess im gonna rant.

Gonna fire a client today for being a fucking schedule nazi. Not everything can be scheduled on your outlook calendar down to minute. Some of us work in the natural world where things like weather, natural products, living inventory etc present way too many variables to use a fucking ai assistant to schedule your life for you.

This is my one client i got from stupid ass "thumbtack" the techbro app that contractors are now forced to buy into to get seen by anyone and i should have known better. Im a word of mouth contractor and this right here is why.

I told this fuckin nerd this particular service happens in a window. I said i need access to his sprinkler system during these dates and i do NOT schedule specific dates. He fires back with "ok lets do the 27th". I was like "i can try but i may need to do it earlier or later depending on how things go with my other 29 clients.

He gives me a thumbs up and yesterday im like "ok bud youre up, ill be over tomorrow" and hes like "no id like to stick to the 27th" im like.. nnnnooo youre tomorrow, and i told you i need access to your system.. just need a garage code. Hes like "im not comfortable with that".

I said "if youre not comfortable with me having your gate combo then i suggest you hire someone you trust".

Havent heard back yet becuse this twerp sleeps until like noon every day because he works from home and "works with ai" 🙄.

Also i fuckin hate that. Like you really dont trust me IN YOUR YARD alone? Like.. what the fuck you think im
Gonna do dude, steal your bike? Like yeah. I can just see the wheels turning. Hes got some image of an old timey burglar gang at the headquarters schemin up a new heist:

"Heres the deal guys. This ones a long-game. First, we're gonna start a landscaping company and i mean, a LEGIT company. Insurance, workmans comp, employees, about $100k worth of equipment. The works. We'll get really good at it and i mean, we'll learn every plant name by its botanical name. We'll get a huge portfolio of clients and pictures and then? When this guy finally gives us his gate code? We're gonna steal his Trek."

*goons making excited noises* thats genius boss

"Right? Thought of that one myself. I mean, that bikes worth at least.. what.. $300 on the black market?! Well be sittin high on the hog this time boys"

I fuckin hate this client. If i dont get a gate code ny the time its his turn (which is DEAD LAST of 30 clients) im ghosting him. He can figure it out. I already deleted thumbtack so he cant weaponize a bad rating or whatever.

I hate gig economy techbro ai bullshit. We used to have a SOCIETY and more and more, life is lived behind a screen. We need to fullly boycott all this bullshit. Uber, doordash, thumbtack, amazon, all of it before we all live in ghost towns of boarded up buildings.

Rant over. Im going outside.
