You just gave me flashbacks to this dude I contracted for. Dude had me working on utterly random stuff for like less than a week at a time. "Hey, make a visualization tool in Unity!" "uhhh ok but I don't know C#, and the backend is only 10% done, I suggest we focus--" "just do it! we have to move fast!"

I eventually started to get roped into investor meetings and he was just straight up lying to investors; nothing wrong with a little optimism or whatnot, but suggesting that you present-tense have some non-existent capability that'd take years to develop is ballsy. Paychecks started getting late and then not coming at all and I had to threaten to sue him.

Just give 0 notice on payday and gtfo.

How much did he end up skimping you on?
