Tee, so sorry you have to deal with people like that. "older spoiled brats" I call them.
I'm having one at the moment also. The couple of ladies I'm doing the airstream wrap design for. They have a logo, "Black Widow 870" but then had no clue on wrap design. I have to have some idea to get me in the right direction. I mean I can literally go a million ways with these things. They decide on a cartoony, hippy vibe looking stream, landscape, trees and such scene. I'm in this 34 hours so far. They were given a low quote based on "something simple and fast". It's been anything but. Very indecisive. Now, week before last, they both came and stayed an hour apiece to 'tweak' things and see this and that. I really don't have time for that , they need to make up their mind. I printed off their designs for them to look at over the weekend and was assured they'd get to me Tuesday with their decision and said they're pretty much done at this point. Good, I'm sick of looking at it. I'd like to plan a vaca but this is holding me up. Anyway - I never heard back. The design time in this already exceeds their total quote. It's a 28ft airstream. Install will be a crank too.
I email them to ask wth and they reply they're glad I checked on them and they feel that in looking at what they are at, they're simply trying to do something that isn't going to work with their logo and name, and we just need to start all over at this point with something totally different.
I"m sorry, what??? These take time to do, time that's billed out at $65 per hour. I'm hesitant to even start messing with it to keep me from having more time in there. They speak highly to me in appreciation of my patience and such, but I really think they have no grasp of time involved . The one that came in here that wears the pants in the household so to speak, saw that day what all I was having to do just to do the "small" things she asked for. They aren't so "small" in actual vector or raster image adjustment. She was shocked and made comments on how difficult it all appeared to be when she thought it was simply click and go. Nope.
I swear people watch too much CSI. Sh*t ain't that easy.
Anyway, I've just finished up another trailer for a mattress sales dude that was just like Tee's customer. I came >>this close<< to just refunding his deposit and asking him to leave.
On a brighter note, its' been a nice, comfty 80 around here last couple of days, temps slowly climbing though, left doors and windows open last night for the cool breeze and save on air costs. Mite ask bf to take us for a bike ride after work to enjoy it.
Hope everyone has a good day.
Best wishes to yours Tommy for quick healing and recovery
