Complications with Accepting a Job
Choosing someone to just have them decline the run (unless it's everyone, and/or I'm planning for this to occur at the start) can be messy, so I will try and avoid picks that can be disruptive to the point of stopping the run, may ask for clarification on an applying player's part.
Complications with Completing a Job
Sometimes the job the Johnson gives you is just bad, either for your health or your soul. Sometimes, that leads to subtle sabotage or outright reversal on a (or many) runners parts, however this kind of thing works best in concert with your other players, please discuss it as players before you decide on something in character.
Street-Level Scrapes
What appeals to me most about Shadowrun's setting is the everyday occurrences and absurdity that can be easily lost on a runner who is busy planning their next dragon assassination. Sometimes you're in the wrong place at the wrong time and end up in a gang shoot out just as you go to get your dry cleaning. Maybe your trip to Kong-Wal Mart is ruined by a soldier's last bit of sanity snapping as he realizes his favorite brand of soy-izza bites are no longer on sale, and worse his dying mother asked him to get them. Or sometimes it's as simple as just a quick smash and grab, or a subtle job to ruin a new restaurant's image by influencing the locally renowned critic. Shadowrun is a serious setting, but not everything needs to be a serious world-shattering event. I believe that it devalues the material to never take a step back and see the world as a world, rather than an elaborate Horrors-fueled torture nexus. Even though it is.
Chips Falling Where They May
I don't enjoy a single mistake completely flattening a run. I know those runs have their place, they're just not for me. I feel several things need to go wrong before a run just absolutely needs to be aborted from an OOC perspective, if it's an IC decision reached that is different and entirely fine. That doesn't mean the world will pull its punches all the time, and you could get knocked down. I'm still trying to hone in difficulty, so I can't guarantee consistent results, but I will let you fail, in the same vein as I will do my best to enable whatever plans you can come up with.
