First you identify your target, make an initial approach knowing full well it takes time to reel them in.
Meanwhile, you make an approach to a couple of other prospects and begin negotiations, just in case the principal target turns you down or joins somebody else. That way you've got every chance of getting a replacement without having to take too long to get them to agree to come.
You might have to make 30 or 40 enquiries, of course ..... and even increase your offer.
But that strategy should ensure you get somebody in before the window closes.
[cite]Posted By: oohaahmortimer[/cite]20% she says yes ...55% no.... 20% she leaves you hanging with no response ..... and 5% she leaves you confused as to whether its a yes or no
Maybe she's even more nervous than you and doesn't want to reply yet, rather she will wait for you to head home then reply once you have left the office. Then by the time she arrives 'late' for work tomorrow you will already know her answer and she hasn't had to face you (or even be in the same building) at the same time.
i.e. sent the hairy supplier guy an invitation to go out for a drink and have a smooch while sending this girl a demanding email suggesting that you've been getting complaints that her service is rubbish and she charges too much?
go on mate go downstairs and see her tell her that you left your PC open and that toss pot from accounts has only gone and sent emails from my computer the fooking dick head
oh yea i hope she was single and that big fella outside with his mates is just her friend
What we don't know is that when he didn't get a reply after half an hour he sent her another one saying "did you get my email". Still no reply so after an hour he sent her another one saying "why are you ignoring me". After 2 hours he asked "what have i done to upset you". After 3 hours it was "i thought we could be good together". And after 4 hours, he found out she had the afternoon off and is going to see all these emails in the morning.
I think the reason she's not replied yet is that she's spent the last few hours on the internet picking out venues, bridesmaid dresses, caterers, the whole works.
no she has been on here finding out that the majority of his mates are stunningly good looking and that she is better off waiting for him to get the ache give us her email address and let us show him how its done
At the moment, you are in a nasty no-mans land, which needs definative action. The question you have to ask yourself is what would Jack Bauer do in this situation ?
A few minutes pondering and i think you'll come to the only possible solution, and that is:
- to have patched to you the thermal-imagery from the satallites to your cell.
- Identify the number of hostiles in her office.
- determine whether said hostiles will provide much resistance (mumsy types throwing chocolate digestives).
- Identify point of entry. Remember, this is a covert operation.
- Isolate target and transport her to safehouse (drag her to stationary cupboard)
- Tie her to a chair (with the thin cellotate if you can find 'an end').
- Conduct following conversation
Office bird: Ketman, if you kill me, you won't know why i didn't reply
Ketman: I trusted you, office bird.
Office bird: I was just doing my job
Ketman: Your job? I almost died of embarrassment today. How many people that trusted you nearly lost their life today because you were doing your job? How many others, damn it !
Office bird: How can i tell you what i don't know ?
Ketman: If you don't tell me what I want to know, then it'll just be a question of how much you want it to hurt.
Office bird: steady on, i'm not into kinky stuff
Ketman: The time for games is over office bird. Right now, the only reason that you're conscious is because I don't want to carry you.
Office bird: You were much nicer in the tea room, your sexy voice almost made me feel good
Ketman: When I'm finished with you, you're gonna wish that you felt that good again. Right now, the only thing saving me from killing you is the thought that you may be a lesbian all along
Office: But i am a lesbian Ketman. Everyone in work knows i'm a lesbian. Don't tell me you didn't know
Ketman: DAMN IT !
I can't stay quiet any longer. I'm the girl from downstairs. If you had asked me to my face / for a drink with others / been wearing a white suit and licking your lips / waiting in my usual pub - i'd have said yes. But email ? Is that all i mean to you?

She could be on a caravaning holiday with her 3 kids, down the pub or filing for a restraining order.
I bet he now wishes he never said anything!
Just shut it - and make the tea, woman!
You mean you're not a lesbian??
