Damn, this is so 100% @$#%@^# TRUE!!!! Kaya nakakatawa!
And it's partly our fault for allowing these things to happen. As freelancers kasi, we are always looking for clients, and the clients think that we need them more than they need us -- so they abuse us! Kesyo takot tayo na baka they wont hire us next time kung di tayo makikipag compromise sa kanila, or "kaya yan ng pamangkin ko eh", o "let me consult my wife muna" blah blah blah!
Me and my friends have had countless experiences na gaya nito. And we've learned that we don't really win if we give in to these type of clients. More often than not, they won't really hire us next time anyway kasi one time project lang yung pinagawa nila.
At kaninong tiyan ang kumakalam? For sure, hindi sa kliyente.
So friends, let's do ourselves a favor -- let's not deal with clients like these. We must not undersell ourselves. We should know what our skills are worth, cause if we don't recognize even that, there's no point going freelance.
Let's respect ourselves. Kasi if we don't, sino nalang? And no, lalong hindi ang kliyente, lalo na kung nakikita niyang we second guess ourselves.
Stay away from these clients.
Cause really, it's not worth the grief.
-- di ko naman nilalahat. marami naman ding matinong kliyente. be on guard lang sa mga kliyenteng sakit sa ulo!
