Client demanding I make revisions today, on Thanksgiving even though they said they won't be available until Monday because they are out of town for Thanksgiving. What?!

After signing a contract agreeing that all comps would have a watermark on them, only to be removed after final payment, my client just sent me a nasty email saying he would find another illustrator if I didn't take off the watermark on the first version I sent. So much for contracts?

I just hung up with a client who kept saying, "Just stretch it!" (in regards to text placement). And, I said, "You mean space it out?" He replied, "No! Streeetch it... like make the letters wider, but not taller!" He was so offended when I said, "Uh... no!" (YOU KNOW WHAT I REALLY WANTED TO SAY!!!)

How about clients that stop responding to emails and phone calls once you send them an invoice? Seems to happen a lot lately. I've even had one blame the economy! Uggghhh.
