I started doing some work for a company called Almaxxinc on a few different websites in November. it's a small one guy company and since he was refered to me by some one I know I didn't get a contract before I started work. That was stupid and I knew it then, it just didn't sink in. anyway this guy was a nightmare to work with. you know the deal- 20 emails a day and every other one contradicts what the last three said. but then he doesn't want to much time spent on anything because he's on a tight budget.... Once again, I should have dropped it then but I didn't.
finally after a while of this(and not recieving payment on an invoice that he agreed to pay) I told him that I'd had enough and I was going to have to let him go as a client. I still have not recieved payment and I do not expect to. I know there is nothing I can do about it now. I just want to put my own lack of forethought out here as a warning to anyone else. Always get a contract before doing ANY work and never work with a client that gives you a bad gut reaction to begin with.
cheers
BTW if this is inapropriate for this board or placed in the wrong forum feel free to remove it and I apologize for violating any rules. I just hope some one can learn from my stupidity. :)
