In reply to Mike (Forum Supporter) :
I've found muting accounts slightly more effective than "less of this" or outright blocking.
I just wish reels would follow some sort of pattern. I click a food video, I might get 2 or 3, then it's crotch rockets running from cops, thirst traps doing pause challenge nudes, golf, real estate investment scams, and a bunch of other stuff I don't care about. The food never comes back!
I seem to have the most annoying clients recently
" You completed exactly on time and slightly under budget, and did everything you said but we kinda changed our mind and were wondering if you could do more for less" essentially several times this year.
I guess I'm sorry for being a man of my word, strictly explaining thru multiple mediums how the project will go and actually being cheaper than budgeted?
Seriously, wtf?

Start adding a 10% "Expectation Management" line item. If they are cool, tell them you'll remove it. If they pull this crap, leave it in.

Not a horrible idea, but I really just like not dealing with these sorts of people at all. I think a lot of them go in hoping to find something wrong so they can get a partial discount and are annoyed they can't.
It's a weird line of thinking, I just you know ......do a good job in a timely fashion so maybe I'm just weirdly old school to them?
In reply to wae :
Nah, less, because they can't count the number exactly, and have no intention of doing so even if they could.
I need to hang a banner at work that says
'Don't let perfection get in the way of excellence.'
The building isn't going to fall over if an equipment tag isn't perfectly placed the way you'd like it. It'll be ok.
