Expecting every job in the future to be free is not nice. Nor is expoliting your kindness by mentioning money troubles. We all have them. She would have paid to buy invitations elsewhere, why should this situation be any different? And the phone thing is just not cool.<br />You have a right to be mad. In the future, before you do a job for someone, discuss how much your fee is. Then they can decide whether to proceed or not. And you don't have to deal with hurt feelings and strained relationships.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12083203261712250854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5931871417013371249.post-77124357754724556122010-06-15T12:11:35.704-07:002010-06-15T12:11:35.704-07:00ok i'm late in reading the full story here. b...ok i'm late in reading the full story here. but...holy friggin' moly! wow.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5931871417013371249.post-80911217270895871042010-06-13T16:47:30.766-07:002010-06-13T16:47:30.766-07:00I should join you and go into therapy myself.

I have done it through a marriage, children, abuse as a child and so much more- things do become clear, and there is so much more when you do not hold it in- internalizing fear and hopelessness, even in small amounts bother our children, because they can see things we think we are hiding- <br /><br />Hugs and love from one of your biggest fans :)Chef Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11198603107302675448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5931871417013371249.post-53707405216696267632010-05-21T10:01:54.619-07:002010-05-21T10:01:54.619-07:00I think we all have come across issues like this. ...I think we all have come across issues like this. Its one of the reasons why I hate putting my work for show on public sites like Threadless and such cause other artists will always find something they would have done different, instead of saying "hey that's cool, good job". Most of the time they try and find a way to take a jab at your skills instead of being constructive. <br /><br />Elena, has a good point. Ten seconds will save your behind in the long run. You just have to remember the majority of people are stupid most of the time, and understand that clients would rather have you try and read their minds instead of just telling you what they want the first time.<br /><br />Have a good day.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5931871417013371249.post-50818420631617004362010-05-18T14:52:33.684-07:002010-05-18T14:52:33.684-07:00I like the colors, and will be intersted to see ho...I like the colors, and will be intersted to see how they look on you.
