I've been dealing with that for the last 5 years with one of my main clients. Huge client that pays a lot and I have (kind of sort of) fun working with them. But there are ALWAYS crazy deadlines and insane turn around. After 2 years of working with them I finally made them understand the concept of allowing time for their projects to be good instead of quick... or I thought so. They kept the coolness for a couple of months and then... CRAZINESS ALL OVER AGAIN... So I got fed up. on my invoices there is always, under every crazy deadline project a nice rush service fee. If they don't like it they know what to do. now, when I need more time I just ask for stupid questions I know it will buy me more time. Is just a matter of finding the way to let them go crazy while you chill out and work. And if they don't fuck'em RUSH FEE.
- Can't believe I never thought of buying time with stupid questions. Thanks for the idea :)lekke
