Laughable phone call from LandAm just now...

Him: "Are you available for a signing tomorrow at 1:00 p.m."
Me: "Yes, I am available. Are you able to meet my fee of $xxx for eDocs?"
Him: "How did you arrive at that fee?"
Me: "Because they are MY services and I set MY fees"
Him: (again, and insert condescending tone) "I said, HOW did you arrive at THAT FEE?"
Me: (again, insert ever MORE condescending tone) "Because I set MY FEE for MY SERVICES"
Him: "Yeah... (laughing)... and how's that going for you?"
Me: "I did 35 closings in the past 30 days... you do the math, Einstein"
Him: *DEAD SILENCE*
Me: "And oh.. by the way... I thought today was the 'cut off date' for BGC's? I am not an NNA puppet... You don't really want my overpriced services anyway, do you?"
Him: CLICK

I'm doing a closing for LandAmerica tonight. When I was given the docs, I told her that I am no longer certified by the NNA and have had a few background checks already and wanted to know if I will need one to work for her. She said she doesn't blame me for not wanting to go through it again. She still is having me close her loan and is meeting my price.

LMAO! They just called me back!

This time, the conversation went as follows:
Him: "Hi, this is Matt from LandAm... are you available tomorrow @ 1:00 to do a closing for us?"
Me: "Matt, did you just call me 5 minutes ago for this same closing?"
Him: (nervously) "Uh, no... it wasn't me... why?"
Me: "Because I don't cotton to little boys insulting me in such a manner as your co-worker did, and it makes me wonder if I want to work with your company any more"
Him: "Uh, sorry about that... "
Me: "Can you meet my fee of $xxx for this assignment?"
Him: "Just a second... (on hold for less than 10 seconds)... Yes, ma'am... we can"
Me: "Thank you. I'll take care of it for you, Matt... send over the confirmation"

So... I get the confirmation and realize why they had to call me back! It's a World Savings and I am the only local closer on their list of "Preferred Closers".
I love when things work out this way

Sissy-boy!
You fixed his wagon, didn't you?
I am LMOA with you.
Let me say it loud and clear:
DON'T MESS WITH NETWORK GALS, THEY'LL BITE YOUR FRIGGIN' HEAD OFF!

Network gals, guts, and EOM...

My god... that boy didn't stand a chance with me! Now that I think about it, him calling me with that attitude was like him bringing a knife to a gun fight, wasn't it?
Ah, yes... Lisa continues to engage in battles of wits with the unarmed opponent

Hey Ms. Stamper and Ms. Prestegard

I am still waiting for my poison a few blocks down from this post LOL.

But I think I will stay in NYC- there are so many bars, pubs and corn liquor available... LOL

I think I will pass and take a bath tonight. I called the NNA... will post this separately.
