We the fuck should people allow this shit?
It's one thing to attempt to separate the good from the bad as in any other profession, but what people SHOULDN'T do is separate both so one end ends up earning from $0 to minimum wage. It only hurts the ok/mediocre/good/educated people.
This is what fucking annoys me. This is why we get shit clients at work that request an enormous amount of work for a fraction of it and think that's what's industry standard because they saw something online for like $199. Some of this "shit" clients could be "ok" clients since some have the money/potential to pay for services that will be performed by educated people on loans that too have to pay rent, cable, car leases and send their kids to kindergarten.
This is exactly the kind of shit that causes all of us to go on rants right here on QBN coz our friend wants a website for $250, or a dude refuses to pay for already-performed services or a we get what we think it could be a good client only to meet and realize they are cheap bastards simply coz they have been brainwashed with the idea that design is cheap and easy since a 15-year-old submits logo designs from paint onto those nasty logo sites.
