Too early to ignore what people think

It is easy to say that the costumer is always wrong. How many times have we seen the scene of stupid people walking into a store demanding services that don't even exist. Asking for what cannot be given to them. I once saw a woman buying butter by weight. She wanted a pound, which was what was given to her. The tub was not filled but was a pound. Instead of taking the pound of butter, she spent the next half hour fighting with the employer because she wanted the tub filled and still pay for one pound.

Are we such brats?

Unfortunately, I have found that for baby commercial artist or communication designers, our fights with our clients often end up in them winning over. They are the ones taking care of the bill and tip. We are the ones serving whatever they ask for too.

So stay away from stupid client and stick to the good ones who pay you for what you are worth and let you do the work!

Here is the article that inspired my thoughts:
