So, a friend of mine called me this evening. After 7. He wanted to know if I could help a friend of his with some English-language work for a job she wants. I declined, after some persistence on his part (I don't know why he was so insistent).
I went back to my yoga routine, ignoring the phone when it rang, because I saw by the readout that this same guy was calling me. When I finished the routine, I found a message from him saying that she didn't want me to do the work for her; she just wanted me to look it over. I messaged him that he could give her my email. By the way, when we spoke earlier, and I told him I didn't want to do it, he told me, "I'll just give her your phone number, and you can talk to her." I vetoed that idea.
So, as I said, I messaged him that he could give her my email address.
So what does he do?
Yep. About an hour later, she calls me. I will now be looking over her work before I leave for my own job in the morning (he didn't tell her that I have a full-time job). We're both in a bind, because he was so pushy. I have agreed to do work that I may not have time to do, and I think she feels awkward because she now knows that right now, I don't have the time to help her, and this assignment of hers has to be done by noon tomorrow.
He is on Facebook right now. I just sent him a message that my phone number is not to be given out, under any circumstances.
