Why don't you secure the funds before starting a week? looks like the same payment issue repeating in different campaigns over the years.
I did for the first week, as I normally do. But different scenarios and different people get different treatments, as a working relationship is built.
I also am not too worried about this particular campaign as if they aren't going to pay up I'll just pay it out of pocket, as I have done in the past.Truly, that's what a trusted campaign manager will do to retain his name and reputation, but on the other hand, we need to put things in order, they should be aware and ready for the task which they are venturing into. Every workman works for a profit to tell of later, not work and end up paying from pockets. They ought to have known better when it comes to public services.
