I couldn't find the "client of the day" thread so this was second best.
A new but client that's going great things says this in an email this morning on an email blast that he needs to design:
"Oh, and has to be super cheap. This isn't even a fundraiser; we are just intro our org to a new people...."
What a thing to fucking wake up to, haven't even had my coffee yet.

Just happened to me, last week they crowbarred open the back door. Computer was in room they broke into luckily only took PS3 and watches, etc. sorry to hear you lost your work that would be nasty. My dog was locked in the room they broke into. I still am paranoid a week later to leave my house unattended. Sick feeling.

same happend to me a month ago, they took my MBP and the one of my flatmate, a piggybank and my rucksack to carry it all away... gladly the MBP was old and kind of broken, I was at the office with my new one at that time... insurance paid full for the old piece of shit, so I got out quiet lucky!

Sorry to hear mate, had the same on the previous flat. They took a couple of laptops and some random stuff but thankfully they skipped the photo equipment. The insurance paid back and got a new macbook but lost plenty data.
I am not saying that is the right thing, but I heard of 'a friend' who fabricated a couple of extra receipts and ended up better off.

Geeze Orrin, sorry to hear. :(

Home Insurance? I know that your data still is lost but hey, at least the thought of new equipment will make it a tad better.

Damn that sucks. That hackintosh is probably getting raped with a fresh install of windows.

Really sorry to hear. No matter what gets nicked and how much comfort there is from it being replaceable, it's still shite.
Last time it happened to me the cnz emptied the kitchen bin contents in the lounge - assuming they used the liners to carry it all. Amongst many things they took my game console and 100+ games, leaving just one shit one, which I briefly found amusing...

- Hydro Thunder wasn't shit! You take that back! Your Dreamcast got nicked then? Or was it on other consoles?orrinward2

Sorry to hear man. Was robbed several years ago of somewhat unimportant shit - all my DVD's, a watch, a jar of change.
- Bet you'd been working on that jar of change for a while though!orrinward2

the hackintosh truly sounded impressive
- Thanks. It was just a customised version of an Inspiron 1525 MoBo.orrinward2
