Re: Changing the Standard

[Christopher Wright] "It is hard when even the old, good clients turn into "grinders.""

I find that very true these days, when I start freelancing in new company, at the start it becomes okay. Pay is good, your happy to work with them and the people around the company. But then you offend work with them, they gradually and slowly becoming grinders. Your fee goes lower and lower the the timeline becomes shorter and shorter. Plus the demands of the work doesn't seem to add any more.

A full motion graphics work worth 60 or even 80 percent less than your actual rate. But of coarse you say okay because your still happy working for them and assure you the next project will have a better project.

Then little did you know that low-budget project wasn't so low, when you see dramatic change in the lifestyles of the head huncho.

I learn my lesson, and I guess you can't be a nice guy all the time. Or you should choose who to be a nice guy to.
