Turtle_Rider - I understand your frustration. I used to work for someone like that - always saying, "I need a proposal for ABC next week." In the end it would be dropped because it was too expensive, not the right timing, etc. etc. Finally after a while, he would completely forget he even asked you. He'd ask for something than never mention it again. After all the wasted work, I started to put minimal time and effort into those requests. 30 minutes looking for some links to show him if he ever asked me about it again. He rarely did.
