@f0x Ah yeah, for funding proposals it can get a lot hairier...
@f0x (General rule of thumb is that acquisition - of employees, freelancers, even products - is a process that in and of itself costs money, so as long as you're not being an asshole, people aren't likely to just walk, because they'd be throwing away a sunk cost)
@joepie91 right, in my last 2 cases it's funding proposals though, so negotiation might not be there/possible :(
