Back in action

I'm back to posting. Work completely took over my life. The side effects of the slumping economy forced me to put everything on hold and scramble to hold on to my clients and add a few more.

Something really bothers me.. It seems like the challenging economy have given some people  a legitimate ( in their mind) reason to not pay for services rendered. I now have several clients owing me money for work I have done, but won't pay. Their excuse: The economy! They try to convince me that they can't pay because their revenues are down. And, they seem to find this OK and acceptable. I'm a one man business and depend on getting payed for what I do. I've lost several clients and my income is down over 50%. I get through this, but it would certainly help if people payed for their services.
