It’s almost Halloween, time to sit in the dark and tell your worst client horror stories. Use Client Scorecard to rate clients who were major witches or ogres, and tell your most hair-raising tale in The Freelance Life. The person who submits the best horror story gets a trick-or-treat bag (heck, we’ll mail one to anyone who’s totally been screwed and writes a review by All Hallows Eve – it’s the least we can do). Need inspiration? Alex B, a developer from NYC, has quite the tale, as does this freelancer working in film. And, if you're still stuck for costume ideas, the apt Clients from Hell is always a good go-to for inspiration. (photo by hanna_horwath, via flickr)
