Sounds like he gave you an opportunity and you clearly let him down with the quality.
Seems like Doug and his boys are trying to perpetuate a narrative that he's a scumbag when actuality he's cutthroat in business. If YOU give a guy an out in a contract that he's outperforming, how is it on him when he exercises it?
Strongly disagree with the above.
Not sure why OP hasn’t mentioned it here so far, but he is a kid (c20 years ago) and obviously went into this transaction with full trust and was just trying to do JNandez (his boss!) a favour.
Building on the above, never seen any mention of quality in any posts by OP or JNandez therefore, please explain.
I can’t comment on what happened with Doug, but at least that is two sensible ADULTS who can look after themselves. OP is a kid, who got his mum to fork out hundreds of dollars on materials and spend hundreds of hours knitting scarfs for his former boss based on a written request.
I wouldn’t even call this a business transaction, it’s more of a trusting favour. Personally I’m a member of JNandez poker and am strongly considering not renewing my membership as I don’t want to fund a person who acts like this. Even trying to level him with the ‘send the scarfs first, then we can discuss costs’ is really horrible behaviour.
Anyway that’s my take on the above and best of luck OP
