syntheticgerbil Posted December 4, 2009 These are amazing, and really make my blood boil too! Probably not a winning combination. Anyway, here goes, have fun: http://clientsfromhell.tumblr.com/ Also here is my favorite so far, just because it seems like something I might be okay with doing just because of the sheer absurdity: “Early in my career someone who’d Id previously done work passed my information to a friend. This friend operated a cleaning business and he needed an over-sized mailer. Everything went smoothly up until the end he asked if I could somehow superimpose an image of a vagina onto the mailer..” Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThunderPeel2001 Posted December 4, 2009 This is very true from a designer's point of view... http://theoatmeal.com/comics/design_hell It'd be funny to see it from the client's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SignorSuperdouche Posted December 4, 2009 Ohh, I'm enjoying these. This one is my fave so far: Once a client asked me to create a logo for his mechanics workshop. I asked him what kind of work his shop primarily focused on to determine a “main theme” for the logo. He told me that it was average mechanic work: tune-ups, replacement of faulty parts, and other maintenance. He insisted that the logo had to include a chicken.Me: What? Why? Your business has nothing to do with chickens. The name of your workshop is “Acme Mechanics”. It has ABSOLUTELY nothing to do with chickens. Client: I know, but… well, what can I say? I LOVE CHICKENS. It's kind of sweet in a way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
syntheticgerbil Posted December 4, 2009 I'm not on that page yet, but I think I'd want to work with that client more. It is sweet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
