Clients are Assholes

Jan 05

Ditched via email

Client just dumped me over email and announced that they aren’t paying what is left in the contract. Clients needs to go, but it was lovely to get stiffed over email.

I thought training was the END of the project

Just wrapped up training a client on his new site, so of course that’s when the asshole decides that the site can’t be finished without these ten random features he’s never mentioned before.

“Hi redacted,

Don’t know why it took me so long to think of you, but was hoping you could provide some suggestions about any contacts you may have avail. to help the LARGE CULTURAL INSTITUTION redesign their video blog site on Word Press.

Our graphic designers are banging their heads against brick walls trying to do this, and well, we realized after the fact, that we need someone from a blogger world background to provide feedback/advice.

Please hit me up with names/contact info to anyone who may be interested in helping us redesign the blog site pro bono, we would provide free tix to good amount of concerts…

Many thanks,
ASSHOLE
Acting Director of Public Relations
LARGE CULTURAL INSTITUTION” — summary: this is too hard for our designers, please find someone to do it for free.

Repeat as necessary.
