Title: Rant!
Post by: gm66 on June 28, 2016, 09:17:47 AM
For the FOURTH TIME, my clients asinine webdev has 'updated' the website, deleting all of my work (titles, descriptions, extra body text).

Every single time he has updated his copy then uploaded it to the website, rather than (web dev f**king 101!) downloading the current site, updating then uploading.

This is the problem with webdevs that only know how to use something like dreamweaver and have never seen a line of code in their lives.


GRRRRRR !

Send him a bill, for each time... he probably wont  pay it, and from the sounds of it the clients gone anyway ....  It will at least make him think .....

Naw, second thoughts, walk away :)

As I said in the other thread where you mentioned this

1. Bummer... There's a reason Sisyphus is the very image of misery

2. He just did you a favor - unless you're one check away from eviction, that client sounds like more trouble than she was worth.
