Cash, what they all said. Don't drop your rate.
I have an odd question:
A woman who cheats on her husband is an adulteress. A man is an adulterer.
What is the "other" man or woman called?
Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

I'm sure there's a snarky (as well as grammatically correct) answer to this, but I also wanted to call attention to one of my favorite cheating terms, the "cuckold."

Oh, unless you meant cuckold, which would be the spouse NOT doing the cheating.

Right. I love cuckold. Makes me think of Yul Brynner.
I meant the homewrecker.

What is even happening?
Technically, I think it's okay to refer to the partner as an "adulterer" or "adulteress." An adulterer is a person who engages in the act of adultery. The act of adultery is defined as sexual intercourse between a married person and a partner other than the spouse.
If I were trying to differentiate between the cheater and his/her partner for something I was writing, what I called the unmarried participant in adulterous sex would depend on the context.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Asshat's argument was that I didn't produce anything he can use. But he wasn't paying me to produce anything. He was bascially testing me to see if I could figure out their spreadsheet. Which he didn't think I could do to his satisfaction. He said I would be compensated for my time.
I'll see how he responds to my last email but this makes me so glad I didn't get the job. I just want to get paid for the time I put in.
