Contracting in the U.S. too, but many contractors "go native" and forget they can basically come and go as they please.

- moron4hire 11y agoI try to maintain an objective distance from my clients. I refuse to do on-site work. I announce hours or days of unavailability, not request time off. I have a few subcontractors that do a modicum of work for me--though their productivity is certainly appreciated and I pay them for it, I'm more interested in the image it creates that it's not just me. I specifically don't reply to emails right away. I maintain separate servers from them and refuse to accept passwords to their production servers (consequentially, because I can't just "go fix it" for them, I think it's made their other developers more cautious about testing).
