Talked to vacation dude, he said he doesn't think I was being malicious just wasn't very good at it. We discussed a "approve but send back the money" deal so my approval isn't shot but said he wanted time to think about it.

You can't eat the rejections? What percentage does it put you at?

That was meant for @VGB lol

Why eat it when theres an opportunity not to?

Because to return the money you will have to go through PayPal and deal with fees and other stuff.

No fees if you send it gifted/to friends and family.

imo that's asking a lot from a requester, and if I were them I probably wouldn't do it

Yeah I mean, if I have to pay some out of pocket I probably wont do it. Who knows maybe he'll approve half or something.

All I did was ask him if there was some way my rejections could be reversed.

That's all for me folks. I'm out for 10 days now. Off to Boston to visit my girlfriend's childhood haunts and to meet her parents. Should I survive, and should they survive I'll be back on the 31st. Wish me well, bwahahaha.

You're also asking for trust that you'll return that money, which is rightfully theirs to dole out for work that they deem passable

No I'm saying I didn't ASK him for that. I asked him for a way to reverse the rejections and that was where the conversation led to.

Also, even if I did ask, there's nothing wrong with asking.
