client horror stories

One horror story is when a client asked for a very specific outdoor shoot. The photographer prepared everything, but on the day of the shoot, the client kept changing the location and the poses every few minutes. It made the whole process extremely chaotic and the photographer couldn't get the right lighting and composition most of the time.

Late payments are a common theme. Clients may delay payments for various reasons, like financial difficulties of their own or simply trying to avoid paying. Another is excessive micromanagement where clients interfere too much in the process.

One horror story is a client who wanted a small, simple tattoo. But the tattoo artist was inexperienced. The lines were all wobbly and the shape was completely distorted. It ended up looking like a blob instead of the intended design.

In another instance, an attorney's junior associate misfiled some documents. These documents were related to a high - profile client and contained privileged information. The misfiled papers were found by a rival law firm during a discovery process in an unrelated case. This put the client at a great disadvantage and led to a breakdown of trust between the client and the attorney. The attorney had to work hard to regain the client's trust and deal with the fallout from the exposure of the privileged information.

In many photography client horror stories, over - demanding clients are a common factor. They ask for excessive retouching, way beyond what was agreed upon. Another element is clients who are not punctual. This throws off the photographer's schedule and might mean missing the best lighting or the perfect backdrop. Also, miscommunication about the deliverables is quite common. For instance, the client might think they are getting all the raw files as well as the edited ones, while the photographer only planned to provide the edited ones according to the contract.

A common one is clients being late. They book an appointment but show up half an hour or even an hour late. This throws off the nail tech's schedule for the whole day. For example, if there are other clients booked after, it can cause a domino effect of delays.

One horror story I've heard was a client who kept changing their mind about the nail design. First, they wanted a simple French manicure, then added a bunch of intricate details like tiny flowers and gems. After the nails were done, they complained that it was too flashy and demanded a redo for free. It was really frustrating for the nail technician as a lot of time and materials had been wasted.

One common horror story is when a hairstylist completely misinterprets what the client wants. For example, the client asks for a trim to keep the length but ends up with hair several inches shorter. Another is when the color turns out horribly wrong, like asking for a natural blonde but getting a brassy orange instead. And then there are those times when the stylist is rough with the hair, causing a lot of pain during the process.

One client horror story I heard was about a client who constantly changed the project requirements at the last minute. The team had to redo a lot of work multiple times, which led to missed deadlines and a lot of frustration.

One common element is misrepresentation. Realtors might exaggerate features of a property like the size, quality of renovations, or neighborhood amenities. For example, saying a house has a brand - new kitchen when it's just a few new cabinets.
