Agreed the project, Nikolai said he was ready to complete the tasks in 3 days. In the project I indicated 7 days, taking into account possible delays and rectangles.
As a result, all the deadlines were failed, the freelancer asked for more time, which he was naturally given, but he was simply missing. I was waiting for another four days - an absolute ignorance. It’s obviously not a competent person, don’t trust him your tasks! Just a fiasco...
He could write, something in the spirit of "not pull" or "not interesting", or "the task was more difficult than I thought, let's clarify the budget..." but he didn't even cope with the feedback.
