They ask me for a quote for a large number of hours, for high-level support in a critical environment. I give them an extremely low quote (my mechanic charges much more in labor just to service my car).

They disappear. I ask for updates, and they reply that their budget for this job is less than half.

I wish them good luck with their search.
