Okay — oh doh, or stories from the front.
Occasionally we all have those moments when we find ourselves staring at our clients or co-workers in utter disbelief at what has just happened. Someone wondering why they can't get an eleven by seventeen inch print out from an eight and a half by eleven inch printer. My personal favorites being; someone kicking the hell out of the fuser assembler in an effort to get it to stop jamming on a large scale high speed copier/digital black and white output device to a conversation with a "veteran" designer who wanted to know the difference between RGB and CMYK color.
Well I stumbled upon quite the collection of them the other day at cli•ent•co•pi•a. The site is devoted to quotes from those designers and techies in the front lines who have just finally had enough and need a place to empty their collective spleens upon the world. Some of them are true gems and others leave you wondering if it's not the complainers own miscommunication that has caused the problems. If for no other reason a visit to the site will show you that you are not alone and perhaps you'll leave smiling knowing that there are situations worse than your own. Fortunately I can say I've never had a case like those described on this site, nope not me, really.
