I thought I wasn't to bad at quoting for a dev job but "scope bleed" is bleeding on 1 job right now ! (ecom store)
I quoted and started the build but it just kept getting bigger and bigger so I just had to ask for more money, ( I NEVER have to do this but it was just outside the original scope ) and he paid, funny thing was on my bank statement it said " website final payment" which I found interesting.
a few weeks ago he goes " ohhh yeh and I need this.........." so I said , ok that should not be a problem........ because I just want to get this job over and done with but last week he says " ohhhhh, and that needs to do this and this..........."
another few days work !!!!
how does everyone else work? I'm finding myself now making longggg lists for T&C's for the future I just dislike that, I have an email which I list the job structure and they come back and say "yes" , but then add and add.
I suppose I have to stop it early
