Like you?


No, offering you advice to negotiate with me would be a conflict of interest.
<Snipped quote by Techspert>

I’ve done lots of favors for others since exile. Heck, I’ve almost died. Twice actually. I didn’t want my aid to come across as disingenuous, because I really am not just trying to look out for myself. Hopefully the difference maker isn’t just whether I established an agreement before doing that.


Those who know you but haven’t built any kind of relationship are where preemptive favor offers may help you.
<Snipped quote by Techspert>

Wish I was a numbers guru in all regards like some people we both surely know are. But I can’t make that sort of call right now. It’s in the hands of people whose choices I have absolutely no control over other than “Maybe they like me enough?” But even that counts on a degree of altruism.


You could offer a mutual favor. I’m certain your help is valuable.
<Snipped quote by Techspert>

That’s a good way to put it. Best to be mentally ready for any worst case happenings, yeah? Even if you hope that’s not what it comes to.


Does that look like it’s the most likely outcome?
<Snipped quote by Techspert>

You sound like you took it literally. But what I mean is, there’s not much more that I can do than the most I can do until the moment of truth.


I’m just weighing your words. You don’t want to take them on alone, but you’re prepared to take them on alone.
<Snipped quote by Techspert>

I don’t guess I am until I am, am I?


...By definition, sure.
<Snipped quote by Techspert>

Is my confidence leaking? I just never get the feeling that I’m truly dooned.


Which is why it's not clear to me whether you actually are.
<Snipped quote by Techspert>

Not with anyone in this field of work, no.


Your description makes you sound more stuck than your tone.
<Snipped quote by Techspert>

Couldn’t even tell you, dude. Legitimately.


I don't assume you have any favors to call in either?
<Snipped quote by Techspert>

Mmm… Maybe you could say that, but honestly, when was the last time anyone saw the guys who own this place?


When was the last time you saw them?
