    The comment on clients not paying because they don't like the work, wife doesn't get it, etc. is why I'm moving more and more towards development. For one, I can charge more. Second, there isn't any team of account managers or client's idiot spouse's or whatever critiquing the application I just wrote. No one is saying "Can you add a couple more methods to that class" or "Why'd you use that variable?". Does it do what it's supposed to do? Yes. Done.

    I love design, but dealing with idiot clients is awful. Luckily, I haven't had any serious payment issues like people here. Plus, since I handle all the ftp admin, I could just shut their site down if I didn't get paid. Or, I could build a secret backdoor login if people get sly and try to change the ftp. I think I will do that from here on out actually.
