Journal jd's Journal: Oh goody. Exactly what I didn't need. 6
A person I designed an online store for didn't want to pay for it. That happens. They also turned out to be a gun and knife fanatic. No big deal, right? That depends on how you interpret the phrase "you'd better watch your back, if I were you". May this be a lesson to you all - never do software consulting work for a latent psychotic.

It is still better than an unhinged girlfriend... I had one that I found out was giving sexual favors to her drug dealer. I can laugh about it now.
The hardest part about consulting is charging people, there really needs to be a service for it. But I learned the hard way not to do work without a retainer - even for large companies. And if a friend asks for work without retainer - they are no friend.
