Now I know this is my own stupid fault because I helped him out with a five minute fix a couple of months ago. But one client, hosting only because somebody else built the site after he decided we were too expensive, seems to have decided that we are now looking after all his websites updates (no CMS) as well, so he has taken to sending his new gig dates to us then sending a "when will it be done email a day later".
Well he's in for a surprise when he gets an invoice for five hours work of trawling through somebody else's code and setting up new pages and adding the new links to all the other pages.
He'll be wishing he had paid £450 for a CMS solution!!!!!
It's arse slapping time as it's known in the trade!!!
That is a pretty useful and funny point. Client is often asking this kind of questions. But it is pretty necessary for us to solve their problems well, it not a big deal then.
Asking for outdated elements such as marquee, animated gifs for pleasure, maybe even crappy testimonials that aren't fully related to the product or site
