Contract Programmer WTF

I've done contract work through Guru.com in the past, and I still
take a look around there from time to time. While looking through
open projects, I'll sometimes visit a contractor's profile that was
given bad reviews. This customer review was priceless:

In the end a truly dreadful, horrible experience. These people have
left me up the creek without a paddle. If I were you, I would not
deal with them...

The contractor in question is an Indian company with a listed
minimum rate of $8.00/hour. Some verbatim copy from their profile,
minus the company name:

"Very good Communication Skill ...We are having well equipped office
with excellent technical skilled team for the development of
[Company Name] projects as well as on site software, webdevelopment
and web designing projects..."

Ummm, yeah. Eight dollars per hour? And they give such a great
example of their communication prowess. Why would you ever hire
someone like that?
