		<description>One client said just dropped off the face of the earth and next thing I know, I heard my client was going to change jobs. How did I find out? I heard it from my colleague who referred me to work with them and she told me to invoice him before he leaves. I did but then I never heard from him -- good thing, I got the email address from my colleague, so I could talk to the payroll. They didn&#039;t pay me till 3-4 months later though. 

The other client told me that the project was not satisfactory and didn&#039;t say anything about the invoice. The person who got me on board to collaborate avoided any communication when I attempted to clarify the non-explicit cancellation email that was cc-ed to her as well. I told my client the cancellation policy that his now-departed employee signed on behalf of this client is still in effect. Last time I checked my email, the new project manager said that the cheque is in the mail, but I won&#039;t believe them until I see the amount in my bank account and the money is accessible. We&#039;ll see what they&#039;ll do about it. I did hear from the colleague who referred me that the marketing person they hired quit on the same day. Only God knows what happened there and really, I don&#039;t care to know but it does make me suspicious about the company.</description>
