Danger, Wannabe Ahead
Mar 3
This clever cartoon perfectly illustrates what it is like to work in the design industry. I have to say that I’ve had more than a few clients that fit several of these categories. My favorite would have to be the ever-present Wannabe.

The wannabe is definitely the best (well, worst)!
I am soo happy to be finally in the programming camp again. They never come up with something like that:
How about this instead?
10 print “hello world”
Also, wouldn’t you like to have the ultimate power spell sometimes? Like “This is technically impossible!”

It seems that any form of creativity for hire is subject to the whims of the client at some level I guess. I mean you *do* have clients asking you for changes right? The difference is that typically those clients cannot write (or even attempt) to write the code themselves. So they can’t pull a true “Wannabe” on you. Count your blessings!

Well, after thinking about it, unfortunately even for the programmer its not possible to escape: Once I had a client, who’s nephew “almost completely programmed the whole project” over the weekend…
