Freelance Agent We Dislike

Not those property agents Im talking about, not about insurance or whatsoever. It's just those agents that hire us (freelancers) for those events.

Now, let's talk about how annoying and disgusting they could be. I hope I don't offence any of my agent friends here. If you really pissed off by me, please don't tell me you did that. 

1) Dragging the payment. 

If you can't pay us on time like what you had promise, then informed us and apologize. Or just informed us that your company hasn't get the pay from client or whatsoever. Don't let us wait like a bitch there trying to chase you about the payment. We are not lack of money, we just afraid you run away with those few hundred bucks there. Just the few hundred dude. 

Is okay if you can't pay on time, just tell us. We understand. Don't be a douche bag for not replying our message after it's seen! 

2) Low payment

It's really okay for me if it's low paymentttttt. How low is it? You want those girls stand so many hours and you only give like $100? Plus, you want us to do so many things. And you required us to do full make up, high heels and everything. Seriously? For so many hours? Why don't you hire your auntie to do it for you? I'm fine with low payment as long as I got job. But just don't ask a girl to carry heavy stuffs like I'm a man. 

3) Escort agents 

I don't hate those escort agents. What I hate is they randomly text girls and ask them if they are interested. And they kinda like forcing you without really that's fucking obvious. It's funny when they say It's good money, you only need to be there for few hours and you got this much of money. Trust me, it's a very attractive amount of money. Escort sounds so elegant, but in a bad way, we call it prostitute. You get paid by having sex with some rich guys. Escort agents get paid by bringing girls for those rich guys. Sometime their commission are fucking high.

One random guy actually ask why are you not doing this? You see, it's good pay, you had fun, you know rich people. Yea, right dude. Ask your girlfriend or your mama do it. 

4) Asking you out. 

Oh gosh, it's fine that an agent ask you out for lunch dinner or supper or whatsoever. Maybe he had a crush on you! It's normal that you see that agent you know in relationship with a girl you work before. I think it's sweet. But just don't be a dickhead asking every girls that you know please. Freelance world is small, once your name and your phone number share by us, everyone started to anti you. 

I had an experience that an agent ask me out to meet in a cafe because their office is way too far from me. He said he needs to interview me and see if I look exactly the same with pictures. So the interview went very well and he said he will give me some jobs in the future. Alright, great =) 

Then the next week, he keep asking me out for drinks. And I was like, I don't have a car and I can't catch a public transport to meet him up at night. So he offered me to give me a ride and I was like no fucking way! What if you don't want to send me home? Is a fucking nightmare that he keeps texting me asking me out. I was alright at the beginning when he asking me out for drinks. Once, he said he is on the way to my place to pick me up so we could go for a drinks, and I was waiting for like half an hour. He said he is on the way and when I ask where the fuck are you? He just can't tell me where the hell he is. Then I act like a bitch said that: dude, why don't we just cancel the outing, I can't go out so late at night. Well then, good bye ! 

And trust me, a disaster happen. LOL, he kept scolding me on whatsapp, voice message, like, why the fuck are you doing this to me? Don't you know there is traffic jam while I'm on my way? You can't do this to me. You promised to come out. I got so freak out and I share his phone number in one of my freelancer girls group and asked who the fuck is this guy? The answers those girls giving me actually make me feel relieve. They said he is fucking weird, keep asking every girls out for interview but never give them jobs.

But I feel bad for making him come all the way to my place. (Not even sure if he actually coming).

Go fuck yourself! 

5) Talk bad about you

Gosh, is alright if you gossip telling other people which girls are lazy, which girls hardworking, which girls are extremely beautiful, which girls are freaking arrogant and so on. But just make sure your words don't come back to us. We would fight back telling everyone that your jobs sucks, you never give us payment on time, your jobs scope are different from what you told us. 

Good luck in looking for girls to work for you in the future, you dumbass. 

6) Keep texting you 

Is okay to text us if you have a jobs. Just don't waste your time text us asking have you eaten? What you doing now? Are you working tomorrow? How old are you? 

Omg just stop it. You are busy, I am busy. Why are you doing this? 

Is even disgusted me when one of the agent text me: Hey I got a job. I asked what? Reply my message. 

"... ...." 

7) Not replying messages when we asking a freaking serious question. I'm not kidding, I'm serious.

When they want you to confirm if you can work, they being so fierce asking you to reply for confirmation. When you ask them about the jobs, they never reply. Like NEVERTHEFUCK. Even worst when they promised there's allowance for the jobs like parking allowance, foods allowance, petrol allowance. Oh gosh, they "cui gong lan pa song". 

Say very clever, when you ask for the allowance, they gone d. Only give you the basic. Niaseng. Waste my petrol go so far, payment so low, somemore parking so expensive. Deduct everything I eat also not enough d. And they just gone d. The numbers you have call is not available. Don't have say don't have la, don't cheat me go so far. I can find other girls for you ma. Lau eh! 

8) Too much commission 

I understand you will absolutely get commission from the client. But don't so much can or not. A girl, client paid you $400, and you took $200 and you gave us $200. Half of it dude. Seriously? And there are 8 girls. Are you fucking kidding me? 

Now I know why there are so many agents out there. 

Alright, I know what you're thinking. Girls are so hard to please. They get paid so high by being vase there, do nothing at all and so many patterns asking for allowances. Duh, sometime I feel like I'm over pattern. But when I need to stand with the high heels, thick make up and set nice hair. I honestly feel that that's not the price you should be giving. We need to walk around with the high heels, approach customers, talk to the public, creating awareness, and so on. Come, I pay you, you do it. 

9) Ask us to reach venue earlier 

I'm fine if you want us to reach earlier for us to get ready, touch up the make up, brief us and so on. But honestly, if you want us to be there so early, make sure you dont late too! 

It's always pissed me off when they want us to be there earlier do nothing and keep asking us to wait. Somenore keep warning us: Girls, please be there sharp at 11.30am! When you reached there and text them they never reply d. 

Sohai, then I come so early for what? It's not like we got extra pay. You also haven't reach somemore request so much. Your brain masuk air hio?! 

10) Job scope never tell properly 

Before work you only tell us we need to do this. Ok fine, with this much of payment, that long of hours, with just some little things to do. I think is fine. But it always so stupid when you reached there started working, they give you different, difficult and annoying stuff to do. Seriously? 

Is it so difficult for you to tell us that job scope might change or different? In the job details you said we only have to give flyers, but when we reach there you want us to approach customers and get their details. Why don't you straight away write it in the job details????? 

I expect that Low payment long hours is only for giving out flyers. Not approach customers, stopped them from walking, ask them write their details for me. And keep forcing us to get more details from people in the mall. Wahlau eh!! No extra pay meh?
