Madigan,

That one was actually more than 6 years ago. I've managed to not repeat that
mistake in quite some time.

Honestly, I just don't like to do short-term support. I don't seem to be
able to handle it well. By the time you figure out what they are asking for
the problem is solved in 5 minutes and they only want to pay for the 5
minutes. I like larger contracts rather than a bunch of small ones. Things
like 2 hours of work with a 4 hour commute burn most of an entire day for
not much money.

Perhaps I could handle it better by jacking up the short term rate because
it is always such a huge hassle compared to longer contracts.

My last position was that I would require 20 hours of fees as an initial
deposit. That doesn't work at all for the 4 hour jobs, though. If I'm going
to take any more of those at all I need to think up a reasonable policy so I
don't sweat it.

These types of requests are rare enough that I have not worked up a standard
policy I feel good about.
