Hello, gentlemen!
The most potent dialogue took place with an unfamiliar freelancer, with whom a friend had brought.
My goal of the conversation was to get wet in freelancing, find out what kind of a beast it is and try to work from-home in collaboration with the aforementioned person. And then everything is in studios, but in studios. And what is already there, I am unemployed from the first. Out in search of a better salary.

We introduced ourselves, talked a little about our previous experience. A guy of my age, according to him, a freelancer with experience. Appears even on one foreign site in the column "Top Rated" with more than three hundred positive reviews. I told you that I have been programming in php for 5 years, I also have some experience, I have shown. Those. people, like, stupid met at all.
They were already alerted by the link to registration on the freelance site with his nickname at the end and the site description capability at the speed of “several days / site”, which was silently offered by him.
Word for word, and we had such a dialogue (spelling and punctuation are preserved, personal data are hidden for obvious reasons):
XXX
so how do u with print?
Umkus
I'm typing fine. This is my main occupation.
XXX
clear
if me will have an option to print?
that is, I make a decision, I appeal to you
telling
you are typing
I give a little dough
interested in?
For example, if I take 200-300 dollars for a project, the solution is already invented, why don't you make 30 bucks stupidly for typing?
Umkus
Wait, what's the system? What will I recruit?
XXX
code
Umkus
Those. you will say that = something like “Connect to the base, make a request, and output the result in the table”, and I type it?
XXX
Yes
I will talk down to the functions if you do not know
full algorithm
Umkus
You forgive me, of course, but for some reason it seems to me that you hold me for an idiot.
XXX
why?
type a few pages of variables for $ 10 per hour
I'm just typing rather slowly
and the more it annoys me, the slower the speed
so I lose time, even if I don’t spend it on finding projects, I’d better spend it on my family
and $ 10 per hour for dialing code is quite decent in my opinion
you will not need to develop an algorithm
I just say write an array with this sort of
and you recruit, learn along the way
=)
what is bad?
explain, can I not understand the thread?
Umkus
Just hold on ...
Come on, XXX, good luck to you.
A curtain…
But wait! Maybe a person has a talent? Perhaps he really ate a dog on heavy algorithms and the development of weighty systems and he has something to learn? But no. A superficial analysis of the work done by the freelancer revealed that the works by these were mainly bug fixes of existing applications and their often non-essential modifications.
Not. The man just types it out slowly, his job is annoying ... And this is the notorious “Top Rated” freelancer?
It's a shame, comrade freelancer! Shame on you
