Self employed moving into employment… ex customer causing a fuss

[Justthisonce12]

I’m honestly not sure how to handle this.

I’ve taken a full-time permanent role still on a contract, but inside I are 35 which I absolutely love. I’m really thrilled with everything about the company.

A previous client has found out about this and decided that I will not be able to dedicate my time and attention to them and hit the fucking roof basically. This includes contacting the company that they think is my new employer to express their concern and basically demanding their money back for services that have already been provided to them.

The new people know about the old people and are aware i will need to deliver the last little bit.

However, I am fully expecting an nuclear reaction on Monday when the old people read my email basically saying you have nothing to worry or complain about, you’ve had what you paid for, and I will finish this project off as fast as I can feasibly.

On your other post, an existing client is annoyed at delays which you advised were due to a family issue, but they believed was because you have another new client. Is this the same issue? If so, how much of a delay has there been? I can see how you’d get fed up if there were already delays and then you found out someone was also working elsewhere full-time.

Ive been a contractor and it’s hard to balance, but it’s probably best to get the existing client work finished and off the pad as quickly as possible.
