The Downside of Freelancing With Friends

Either they expect a low "friendly" rate for your services...

Or rationalize delays in payments...

Or worse, both.

It's not like I'm greedy or anything. But I believe that when I render service, I expect to be paid on time. 

I sent my invoice on time, detailed all the tasks so that Accounting can see that my charge is just right.

Factor in experience and punctuality in submissions. 

I believe I should be getting my worth and on time. Right?
