What does it feel when you are not paid on time?

It is a frustrating experience. If the wait is too long I stop going there and move on.
Yes, I just responded with a smile and a thank you but never again will I trust that person. He can't borrow again.
It happened to me too; once our employer delayed our salary for 20 days, and the reason for the delay was that the management told us that they were at a loss. They have started delaying salaries since then. I left the job soon, as I realized that it was better to change jobs.
When I was working full time, I always get paid on time by the companies I worked for. Now, I am a freelancer. 99% of my clients pay me on time. There are just a few who always delay payment for a week or two. As long as they pay, I'll still provide my service to them.
It can be so frustrating to not get paid on time. I have gone through this so many times in my life and it really ruins the plans and budget you had. All those experiences have taught me to never budget on money that I don't have. It is best to wait till you have the money in your account so as to start planning on it.
