So many negative people....


human nature at its best.....

"thing called Google?"...etc etc??? Guys cmon....

Give the kid a list, save yourself hours of YOUR OWN TIME.

Maybe you save a bunch of time?? Maybe what he comes back with isnt perfect? Ok,,...drop him a few lines,....takes a few minutes?.....he improves/fine tunes his work .....now save another block of time for yourself??.

Critics man. This guy could save me 30 hours of tedious bullshit work for free...terrible isnt it?

Anyhow, OP......

good job.

I would like to send you a small job.

I need a list of Canadian Steel fabricators to produce my Amusesment Park Attraction. The list starting from my province and working its way outward.

Fabricator needs to be able to handle fabricating my unit from A-Z....includes on-site paint shop too. I will give details but below are just a few.

Must be able to handle producing my attraction in a 6 month time frame as needed by my potential customers(large size company capable of big and small jobs).

Needs to be able to create as little as one unit to as many as 20+ units within a six month period depending on orders....

Fabricators must have 20+ employees.

I need the info in an easy to read format with links readily available

I will give more details via pm if you accept the job.

OK, so this may save me at least a full day or more of tedious work.

Ok,

Next job, I need stainless steel trolleys 1/4 ton for my attraction

Next job, I need full body harnesses. Details to follow

Next job, I need plastic mould companies capable of producing devil tails for attraction

Next job, I need list of highwire rope fabricators and a comparision in pricing

Next job, I need etc etc etc......

ALL THIS WILL SAVE ME A TON OF TIME....Can this FREE service help you too??

DOESNT HAVE TO BE perfect, i can further advise if something that the OP has sent me is not up to par....

But bottom line is he would save my probably close to 40 hrs of work that i can use elsewhere....


Yes I accept the job PM me other details pls.

OP.....

Better to take on less work and satisfy those jobs that you took on....

EVEN IF YOU ARE THE BEST AT WHAT YOU DO....people do not tolerate jobs being late.

For me..... 1 day late feels like 1 month late.

People take tardiness VERY seriously.

Its a quick way to loose respect and legitimacy.

If you think the job will take 3 days, tell them 5 days.

Im looking forward to working with you...

I get the impression the task you set him would be easy for people with certain research/analysis skills and experience, yet difficult for anyone outside that to produce a quality result.

I'm sure he could probably fixate on it and get something done, but where he is now from a beginner standpoint he's probably worried he'd run the risk of being like the student who spent 50% of their exam time on the hardest question when there were lower hanging fruit. It would certainly be impressive if he managed to pull it off.

Reminds me of the hiring quote about getting young people to send in their job applications via fax. 90%+ will move on to applying for something else they can send in more easily, helpfully eliminating much of the deadwood you wouldn't want to hire anyway.

Please help me research how I can overcome this issue and if you need more info please PM me.

Here is the original request.

Here is what was received approximately 3 days after the promised delivery date:
1. All metal fabricators North America - https://www.google.co.in/maps/search/Metal fabricators in North america/@39.4878251,-102.9932321,4z
2. Top 10 Technical schools South America - https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=zBOos1BlhGiM.kcdI5NSfB_sE&usp=sharing
2. Engineering consulting firms North America - https://www.google.co.in/maps/searc...firms/@39.7756044,-97.812534,5z/data=!3m1!4b1
2. Engineering schools North America - https://www.google.co.in/maps/searc...erica/@36.144959,-98.5429321,4z/data=!3m1!4b1

Thoughts:
Basically received a google search that would need to be sifted through. For instance, Shiloh High School is listed in the search for Engineering schools..... Probably not in the top 50 engineering schools.....
Your work is appreciated. Now that I understand your capability better, maybe I could use you when I need someone to get us in the general vicinity of the information that we are looking for and could then pay someone else to sift further. Appreciate the help and hope you keep going forward! Let me know when your skills are a little further refined.

Agreed. That was one purpose of the request. To assess that ability.

Yes I agree with you. Still if you have any other job available I would like you to test me on a paid basis ( nominal fee ).
You won't find another man on earth who could do a better job.

To be honest it was hard to find time, motivation to perform free services. I got some other paid , free , college work while doing all this.
I apologize for late work. That second map of top 10 schools has been custom created by me.

Thanks a ton for feedback :)

Just a tip...... a new client DOES NOT CARE about your excuses. This actually makes things worse. Had we been doing business for years and you contacted us and let us know what was going on and that it would be late, we would be fine with it. You would have built up a level of trust that would have helped us understand. As a new client, promising us a free service and then telling us you would have done it if we had paid is a 'bait and switch' and puts you further down the list of people we would use. Task is still not complete. You dug yourself even further in the hole when you said 'no one could do a better job' and that now you want a paid task.......

Complete the task we originally were promised and we will consider using you as a future resource.

Hope that feedback helps...... you will not often get any feedback from clients, your emails / calls would just get ignored.......

Today is Monday sept 14th.

Job description was received by OP on sept 6th.

He promised for 3 days later.

Still have not received.

My assessment:

EPIC FAIL.

I would not use him in future nor would I recommend his services to anyone.
