(Although, to be honest, I had no problem with our conversation.) I just got an angry phone call from him accusing me of making you think that he was being dishonest with you. That certainly wasn't my intent. I know for a fact that he has been not making a single cent on any of the monies you've wired directly to me and yet has been working his fucking ass off on your account. (And I've enjoyed giving him ferocious assignments)....To his credit, Al has delivered everything I've asked of him and on a timely basis and we would not be anywhere close to where we are currently without his efforts (but don't tell him I told you so.) When we were talking on the phone today about funding before you started making payments to me directly. i actually thought they were coming from al. I didn't pay any attention to that. My form of bookkeeping is pretty simplistic....money comes in before I start work and goes out as soon as others start working for me. At the end of the day I'm happy as long as there's something left for me. I'm sorry I wasn't clearer during our phone call and didn't mean to cause confusion. Don't take this the wrong way, but i still think it best to continue dealing with al.. my rule works, at least for me, and is there for a reason.
