icon_mad.gif I take cake orders from work, so, one guy who always orders from me, kept on asking when I was gonna bring ccs. I told him that if he wanted some to place an order, I told him, "if u want I'll bring u a dozen this week", he said fine. So, yesterday, I wasted all this time, money, work and energy to make him his freakin dozen ccs, and then today when I got there he said he only wanted ONE!!! I told him, "u think I was gonna turn on the oven and go thru all that to sell u ONE? U GOTTA BE KIDDING ME!", I told him he better find people to buy those ccs bc I wasn't leaving with them. (Yes, he is somebody I have alot of confidence with). But, by the end of the day, he had only taken one and then I had to go offering people the stupid things, one by one! I know, people should make specific orders but, I thought that since he was a "friend", he would never pull something so low on me! Never again will I take an order from him! icon_cry.gif

uh...what is ccs? Cupcakes?

So he said he would pay for them? and then only wanted one?

He was a jerk for doing that, he should have paid for all of them or you shouldn't have left any for him. But...really you should work out ALL the details before hand. Live and learn. : )

Did you manage to sell them?

His cupcake would have been "pricier" and I would have given the rest away as advertisement for my work. He paid, and no one else would have had too!

I've given away tons of ccs and cakes at work, they all know what I do. icon_wink.gif I'd rather just bring home what I didn't sell, it just frustrates me that I wasted all that money, time and energy for nothing... icon_evil.gif

I am sorry this happened to you. Some lessons learned are not ones we want to remember.

That's crazy. Next time, if he's ever that lucky, you could tell him, whether you want 1 or the whole dozen the price is still .....!
