    look in a completely rational world (where abstract concepts like communism could possibly work) you're totally correct. but people are all kinds of fucked up. sometimes we just need a change and with business connections the pressures come from all angles. new partners, new costs, the need for something simply new.

    the key is to roll with it. if you've got the relationship then the key is to keep that and in fact act like the work going elsewhere is something that isn't even on your radar. act cool like fonzi.

    whatever the reasons, you aint going to get them. even if you do it's not going to take the sting out of it. you feel let down and backdoored. i know, been there recently.

    act cool as fuck. if they need files then supply them with a smile on your dial. most importantly act like you don't need them. do this and you'll keep their respect which might lead to more work from either them or leads they send your way (because their new designer is too busy). act like a tool and not only are you down a client but you'll have a negative propaganda machine telling people what a fuck you are before you can let them work that out for yourself.

    again, just my 2 cents but they come with experience and i actually would like you to come out the other side improved rather than bitter and angry.
