Private - Sam's trying to be PROACTIVE!bythe_booksJanuary 16 2009, 00:12:06 UTC
Elle Bishop. I don't want you trading with her or associating with her. She'll try to use anything you give her to harm somebody else, no matter how harmless a request it may seem.
I know you wouldn't want to lose business by turning away a customer, so here's the deal: she comes to you for anything, don't trade with her. Don't give her a single thing. Do not make a sale, trade, barter, etc.
Tell me you denied a sale, and I'll buy something from you of equal or greater value instead. You don't even have to tell me what she asked for or mention her name. It can be as confidential as possible.
Comrade, it's not that I don't see the logic and good business sense in your suggestion, but I can't do that. The Factory must be completely non discriminatory, and untainted by fragile illusions such as protection of the masses, or the desires of an indevidual.
Private - Well, see, this is when Sam will have to go the route he was trying to avoid :Cbythe_booksJanuary 16 2009, 15:56:32 UTC
Fine. I understand you have your code, but I have mine, too.
If I find out you've sold her anything-- if I even get a whiff of you talking to her, you're losing everything. All of your stock. That's a promise. I'm not going to allow anybody to get hurt by something I had the power to stop.

If she asks me? I can't not sell to her.
