    They ask me for a quote for a large number of hours, for high-level support in a critical environment. I give them an extremely low quote (my mechanic charges much more in labor just to service my car).

    They disappear. I ask for updates, and they reply that their budget for this job is less than half.

    I wish them good luck with their search.

        @caffetino they’re reselling the service, so they’re trying to margin it as much as they can

            @stefano Tell them that at this rate, you are willing to try to turn it off and on again.

              @stefano Sounds like they'll pay the other half of their budget in problems and pain.
