How ridiculous.. I'm so sick and tired of chasing people for money! And unfortunately it's always the BIG companies that push you under the rug, but when they want something done, it has to be rush rush rush, then when it's time to pay it's delay delay delay. Why the hell do people pull this shit? Some of my smaller clients, they don't even bat an eyelash when it comes to paying on delivery. Why is it that the big guys worth the big bucks seem to be the ones most likely to piss around about payment? I mean I understand they have accounting departments, etc, but when a project is undertaken with the agreement of "payment on delivery", delivery doesn't mean 3 weeks after they've already started using the materials.

I normally ask for a deposit of half up front, which I think is fair, but if this bullshit continues, I'm goign to have to ask for full payment up front. This is getting beyond absurd.
