Lately, it seems to be the trend. The plumber, the taxi driver, the carpenter, all send me invoices of “as much as I want”. I wonder how they have the guts. Imagine I send Burburry lady an invoice of “as much as you want”, I’d end up with nothing! 
Guess they’re hoping for more than they were planning to ask for. Next time I will keep them up to their words and REALLY give them as much as “I” want!
It’s a hectic week over here, lots of projects on the way, but so far I can proudly announce that I am illustrating for the Arabic version of A List Apart magazine for web designers, thanks to the very lovely Beshr Kayali & Mohammad Kayali. With this, my darlings, I wish you a beautiful day
Spread the word! ^^

Just recently started following your blog, and it is BRILLIANT!
Simple, yet effective and straight to the point. if only you’d consider a trip to Sydney for a book Signing?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHHA one of ur best! so true!
i agree with lara…hehehehe
happens all the time….recently..my car broke down, a technician who was near by came and tried to turn on the car, he immediately found out that it’s an electrical not a mecanical failure, he told me better call a car electrician….so when i asked him how much he wanted, he said ” samhit nafis”…what the hek…are we praying….!!!! …
Maya you are the funniest !! you should work start a caricature business, it’ll be a hit !
lol XD You’re totally right!! This is exactly what happens to me! They say “as much as you want” then “THIS DOESN’T EVEN COVER MY EXPENSES!!” ><
Always assume the lowest, starting from 1k LL!
Your so funny
But 35 $ or 50000LBP for a ( M3allim) is great !! dont let them bullshit you with those words ( wife children etc) u are fair with that payment
soo fumy as usual
Hahahaha!!! Great one Maya!!
Akh if I had a dollar for each time this happens, its like a technique they use to milk you for every dollar you’ve got. In the beginning I used to think “oh how chivalrous and generous” but you realize it’s all a scam. Great Observation though!!
Thumbs up.
Super funny, as usual!
loool hilarious
well pricing is NEVER easy !
they are not ready to fit in a fair market … they try to steal as much as they can!!
great post!
A technique that never fails is to ask your mom in advance how much it costs, or anyone older than you… I always get ripped off when I find no one to ask
Excellent, Maya, excellent !!!!
hahaha! really, “a knuckle sandwich” is about how much they should get after their scamming… it’s funny how their “politeness” always transforms into the opposite! (btw, is it really a new trend?)
hahaha! that plumber’s expression when he keeps saying “as much as you want” is priceless
