    From Not Always Right: Actions, Meet Consequences

    Client: “I am not happy with your work. I turned down another quote to work with you, so I want more out of you.”

    Me: “What did the other people quote you?”

    Client: “I’ll email it to you.”

    Within a minute, the forwarded email arrives in my inbox.

    Me: “They quoted you twice my rate for half my work.”

    Client: “Which is unacceptable! We need to revisit your output.”

    Me: “And my quote.”

    Client: “Exactly!”

    The client didn’t exactly understand what I meant by that until he saw my quote rise with his heightened output expectations.

    NOT my story!

    I work in a place like that. Not a sign of a healthy organization.
