Next time offer to DJ for 1/2 price in exchange for their help in painting the house, cleaning out the attic, a day landscaping. Friends helping "friends"
My wife just sent me an email.... now, there isn't even going to be a DJ.... they are just bringing a boom box.....
I start vacation tomorrow for 9 days.... we will have a discussion about this whole thing.... I already have a policy that I don't do ANYTHING for any price for my side of the family. Now I may need to expand it to friends and her side of the family.
