So here is my crazy story. Its was so weird, I had to hunt down this specific forum!
I get a gigsalad request that was a bit odd.  It was for a single child for a birthday party. It was for 7 a.m. friday. The mother told me she had stage 3 breast cancer and was going to die soon, and hadnt told her family. I talk her into a lesson instead, since he likes magic and there is only one kid. I also rescheduled to 10 am on a saturday. In between that I have to talk to her on the phone twice for about a half an hour each time. She was unintelligable, but I was courtious. I only caught about every 30th word, but it ranged from how the CPS kidnapped her child, and the new world order. I find out she is not going to be there, and she doesn't want me to tell the foster parents who sent me. She is in California (I am in Montana) and sending this magician as a present. She wants me to take pictures to send to her. I go to the gig and cannot find the place. The closest place on GPS looked abandoned. No windows, no siding, paint. It looked run down and abandoned. I couldn't even find a break in the fence to  knock on the door, which I also did not see. Finally I see dogs running out to bark at me. A women followed the dogs. I told her I was hired to do a magic lesson. She adamantly shook her head, telling me they were Christians and did not allow magic in their household. I assured her it wasnt real, but she didn't care. I told her a "grandma skippy" hired me (the name I was to give her) but she didn't recognize it. I fessed up and told her who hired me. It turns out it is the mother of the kid living there, and she is "a crack *** who puts a video camera at the foot of her bed" as well as an alcoholic and pathological liar. They took the kid away and the mom claims he was illegally kidnapped, and is drugged and sexually abused by homosexuals. She wants to shut down CPS. The foster parents told me that she is not supposed to contact him and they adopted the child. I asked the foster mom what I should do, and she said to simply e-mail the mother and say it went great and they wouldn't let me take pictures. I tried to be courteous and let it go, but she has consistently emailed me with questions like "Did they drug my son?" "Was the parents dressed" "Were they lazy?" "did they offer you something to drink?" "what kind of magic kit did you give him?" "was he attentive?"   she was furious that they wouldn't let pictures be taken of HER son, but come on, What parent is going to let a stranger walk in, without prior knowledge, being hired by someone they don't know and then start taking pictures of their son? She kept e-mailing me and said she was going to give my name to the governor, to do a show for his godson. A friend of mine says this is a red flag for delusion. I agree. I told her to stop contacting me, and I wont be a spy for her. I wasn't hired to leak information to a mother that got her child taken away because she is a drug addict. Honestly, her pictures online and talking to her on the phone screamed "Crazy Druggy white trash" . I should have declined, but I figured it would be easy. Im trying to block her from contacting me. I told her I would contact the authorities, but she tried to guilt me into not caring about children.  and wants me to testify in court about all this. This whole thing was bizarre and probably not worth the 150, even though I never got to do the show... |

I forgot to mention, she wanted me to sneak her son a phone number, and tell him to google his name. She apperently made a blog to get in contact with him. Besides declining, what would you have done?
