I've been doing freelance consulting work for some time, sometime 3 months, some project based. I've got a nice little company (group of UX/ Front-End/ Back-enders) going where we do work for some design agencies or startups.<p>A friend hired some guys as day laborers to help him with a painting job and I started thinking maybe that would be a good idea? Say $400 bucks where you get me for a day. Good way to mutually try out for a good fit for the company? Get to see a lot of different work styles. I feel like there is some beauty in simplifying on both the execution and project management side of things to slice off one day at a time. Anyone have any thoughts or experience with anything like this?
