While freelancing for a logo design, I realised being trusting is a disadvantage. A woman from my village approached me and asked me to create a logo for her studio appartments. I started working and made a proposal. I sended it to her, she was not replying. A few days after, I called her, she told me she really liked it, but she had some issues with the business, so we decided to pause it for a while. It’s been a month, she hasn’t showed up. I texted, she didn’t reply. I called, nothing. And now I get it that she won’t show up at all. Meaning I won’t even get paid for the hours I worked. Which sucks cause I’m in the position of needing money, in order to live, move and work.
People have no respect at all. They do not care that you spend your time for them, while they could do something else more trustworthy perhaps. So after this, I now know that I will have an agreement with clients, about the payment and all, so we won’t have anything like this before. Lesson learned I guess!
