After I sent a client a mockup with lorem ipsum as filler text: “It’s good but there is a weird language on the page. It will either need to be translated or removed.

  • Me: I still haven't received your 40% deposit as outlined in the contract. Could you please check with accounting to see if that check was cut.
  • Client: Mmm, I can't guarantee we can still give you that deposit anymore.
  • Me: That was clearly outlined in our contract.
  • Client: Contracts are just paper.
  • Me: I'll have wait to begin work on the project once the deposit is received.
  • Client: YOU CAN'T DO THAT. YOU ARE HOLDING OUR PROJECT HOSTAGE!
  • Me: No, you are holding our deposit hostage.

Not the first post.

First posts are annoying. “Hi. My name is ________. I like ________, ________ and ________. Thanks you for visiting my blog and please come back soon.” I really don’t want to do that - let’s just get some real stuff in here! -Dylan
