During the first lockdown, a FB 'fan' if you will, contacted me and asked me if I'd make some funny videos for their staff at the organisation they work at. They got me to send them a quote for four x 5 minute videos. I sent them the quote. They wrote back and said they...

...and their managers thought it was too low and they'd pay a higher amount for them instead. I made the videos, sent them across each week for four weeks and then noticed that no one was watching them. I contacted the original contact to see if she'd received them.

She said she had and that she'd been too busy to respond to my emails. I sent her the final video along with an invoice. The videos remained unwatched. I sent a follow up email three weeks after the initial invoice was sent with it attached again.

I have never heard from her since. I've never received payment and I just needed to write this down somewhere because it's at the back of my mind constantly that someone would go out of their way to give me work "to show their support because they're a big fan"...

...and then just ignore me, the work I did and not pay me particularly at a time when I'd lost all my work.

Thank you for reading this rant. I will now continue making terrible puns in your feed.
