    I am a new and naive freelancer. And ironically I have a client wants me to make some small changes after having completed the job. I was just about to send of an email saying I would I do it for free.
    I don’t know maybe because of some idiotic need to please. Now, I don’t think I’ll send that email.

    How about creating a new font based on the original and only changing the “i” and “j” letters, then changing the text font to the new type face? :)
    The illustrated idea however is still very valid…

    LOL! That is such a great parody. I’m sure we all know those clients… I’ve had my fair share of good times…

    Kinda funny!!! Being a freelancer at times can be challenging!!!

    To be on top of the game, I think it is essential to understand what the customer wants and how much will be paid!!

    These stuff wards off depression of a freelancer working all alone at home!!

    Oh yeah – I know these kind of jobs. Strange but true. Some clients have more money than sense – God bless ‘em.

    So true. Of course, these are the checks we mention in conversation, while the tiny ones where you spent 3 times as many hours as you had planned are conveniently forgotten about.
