ME: Okay, so the comp is approved, what's next?
CLIENT: Can you Fax me the logo? My email isn't working!
ME: Uh, if you need to see it again, yes, but it will not be in color....
CLIENT: That's okay, but I need it fast, because it's supposed to go on this promotional billboard before lunch... we've been working on this in-house....

"Why is your logo quote so high, and take so long? I can get a custom logo for $40 and have it by tomorrow."
". . . and with that, have all the care, dedication, creativity and support $40 can get you. How much market research can be done overnight? This is going to represent your business. In your mind, is your business worth more than $40?"

"Yes this one is perfect, but can you change the background color from white to black?"

"Why does it look like that?"
Because you signed it off and were happy with it 2 days ago? It's not my fault you've shown it to your boss and he hates it. Maybe if you can't sign off things your boss will like then maybe you shouldn't be allowed to sign anything off at all.

this isn't really a client gripe, but thought I'd put it here instead of starting a new thread - just got job to eval from account exec - eval'd it at 17-20 hrs. No problem.
"oh we can't spend that much time on it - this is due by 4pm."

Client emails me asking if I'd be able to do a general project for them and says they don't need it until next week.
I agree and client says "great" and now it's been 4 days and they haven't sent me any information. Prob will expect me to do it one day now.

"We need an image for the banner ads since I don't think the image used in the article will work well. Too much blue? Can the team provide a background image that still works with the title and can still work with the image used on the article page? ;)"

Another client brought me a dozen mini Crumbs cupcakes today for a job well done and for putting up with their shit.

Two this week already...
__"Hey, how's it going?"
Good, do you want to have a conf call later on this afternoon?
...gets a google invite for 12.00pm from his PA.
__"Can you look at X for me this week as well?"
I'm super busy right now but I can look at that once I've finished those jobs we scheduled for this week.
"Oh, can you also do X for me, today ideally?"
__Do people read anything you send them anymore?
