Likewise. I reckon I've only walked away from a couple of six or thereabouts where I felt that was a job well done, and have had repeat business from those clients. Try to aim for 1 in 3 these days.Originally posted by MarillionFan View PostI don't like any contract or job I've done.
The jobs that never go well are the ones the call me when the client project is at the 11th hour and it's we're paying you @£$£ loads can't you just wave a magic wand? When it reality it's someone coming in and telling them something they already knew but just din't want to hear.
The good jobs are the ones are where the client is stumped. It's not always a solution sometimes it's the requirement is just identifying the problem, but they're alway satisfying."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience".
