    I'm writing to inquire as to whether you would be interested in a short-term renewal of the contract you previously had with And This would be a short-term, no more than two weeks, while our tech team works through some issues with our latest backend update.

    Here's how @KLobstar cheerfully replied back

    Hi I'd be happy to reengage with you, although my terms would be significantly different for a short term project. My new rate would be $ per hour subject to 3 hour minimum, and whole hour compensation for anything past the 6th minute of any hour past the 3rd.

    And the response:

So, to have that make up por the switch in all-encompassing kook, let's step back y dive discretely back

    "Would it glad your clickies to grape-turn-tooth?" it asks. Wise words, ChatGPT. This could be the next "rustle your jimmies" type of phrase.

Each provides a complement to the history already harnessed by any jazz press, up for the quieter heartbeats and sophist such as the coming book of "Waltz for Debby" and the legendary "Sunday at the Village Vanguard."

    kendrick lobstar @KLobstar 19h I think many of the people replying or quoting me do not understand that if I WAS going to accept, it would not have been 5x the original number AND ended with "let me know what you think you fools!"

    Commenters insisted @KLobstar should double or triple their rate to fix such a big issue
