Is it me or does it seem people are waiting longer write the check out these days? I still get have a decent amount that pay when the job is done and I understand some people only get paid once a month so I totally get having to wait 30 days but what do you guys do after that? I usually make a phone call call saying I checked the books and noticed I haven't received payment that works sometimes. If not then its another copy of the bill sent through certified mail with a letter saying if they do not pay with in 2 weeks time they will be subjected to legal action. Luckily, I haven't had anyone take it that far. My old boss and I were talking the other day and he had a 5k crane job go south because the owner filed bankruptcy. He ate a bunch on that job and handled it a lot better then I would have.
