Do I need to spend an hour of my life to know I should be nice to clients?

Client pay the bills, stop rolling your eyes at them.
Client don't understand design. They'd do your job as well as you can do theirs. They try to put design into the context of how their job works.
Educate them to build confidence in your abilities, so you can influence outcomes.
Remember, clients let you do what you do for a living.

^^^ Cuz they're paying our ass. I suggest not give a fucking fuck what the design out come is. Be concerned if that fucking check clears. (receiving a nice little booze and cheese basket is always nice too.) :)

Why are you in this line of work if you don't care about design?

Say what you will, I always take something from hearing this man talk, even if what he says is something I already know.

Anyone here had to legally deal with a client refusing to cough up the 2nd half of the cash on completion? is something I'm dealing with now.
Part of me wants to just go to his office and snap his legs but I know I will never see the money that way...
