“they get someone who comes to work to actually work, not just show up and expect a pay check?”
Oh sure - they’ll eventually pay you, but actually hire you for a position? I’ve just had contract work and it’s pulling teeth to get them to actually pay for work done.
I have quite a few delinquent clients, folks who have gotten the work they asked for and haven’t paid. The younger folks are pretty good about paying you back because they understand, but boomer clients? I’ve got one who owes me 2 grand for work done in October. And I’m the deadbeat?

No one called you a deadbeat. Turn your deadbeat over to a collection agency and get a stiff up-front fee for jobs in the future.
