Actually, I'm looking at this as a guy who's PERSON's never been employed, it's always been doing business based on private contracts...
If someone came up one day saying "hey that amount I owe you, I can't pay man sorry I'm broke, so how about I mow your lawn next week and we call it quits, my time is worth 1000$/h and I owe you 800$, and I'd appreciate if you could just refund the extra 200$ but as a consideration I'll graciously forget it.." I think I'd get ready to administrate the shit out of this guy's ass for 800$ worth of my fun ;)
