[AccessD] freelancing job sites (OT Reply)

The worst double-it is not even the money, it's the time. I have never ever
had anything I was promised delivered on time. And if you commit to a
customer something you are only the middle man for ... God Help You.
Customers do not tolerate excuses relative to subs (heck, you probably don't
even want them to know you are subcontracting).

Developers typically suffer the dual problem of excessive optimism and
failure to anticipate what cannot be anticipated. That's why you
(should)
ask the developer for an estimate and then double it, at minimum -- even
if
you are both the developer and the salesman.
