Ha! This resonates. Am still waiting to be paid for work done in February -ie, 5weeks before lockdown -but they are blaming lockdown for the non-appearance of the money they owe me. Big household name, too…

I've had experiences like this for consulting on "how to act like a startup" and nobody could ever see the irony.
Bit like the "Future of Digital payments" event that could only pay me by Cheque/Check https://t.co/VGPP7chxn8

omg this hurts my soul. Once i had a payment blocked for weeks because of Christmas, which was three months earlier.
