Client From Hell (Part II)

*Below post may contain a lot of expletives. consider yourself warned! Dear Client From Hell a.k.a Spawn of the Devil, Confuckingratulations, you have just succeeded in pissing me off royally. if you aren't my company's customer, i would have asked you to stuff your stupid Java program up your ass. firstly, let me clarify that i don't mind working late. heck, i've been skipping lunches and leaving the office after 9pm erveryday for the past week. you, on the other hand, should do your Java program before coming to my office to perform "integration testing". do you think i have a lot of free time waiting for you to complete each component before we begin testing? secondly, was it the bored look on my face that prompted you to add/modify my program requirements on an hourly basis? please fucking make up your mind because i'm tired of commenting and uncommenting my codes just to cater to your menopausal mood. or was it because my efficiency will make you look...

The Client From Hell

Super duper tiring and stressful week dealing with the Client From Hell. he changes the system requirements every three hours, in doing so he kept me on the phone for at least half an hour basically repeating the same dialogue 10 times. as if that's not enough, this Client From Hell barged into my office this afternoon and spent 3 hours testing the application and instructing additional features (again!). the saddest part is, he stood pretty firm bout the project dateline. how am i suppose to have time developing the system if he keep on intruding this way? and the even-sadder-than-having-CCTVs-in-the-office part is, he's coming again tomorrow. god help me!

"No, this is not a 'rayuan'. this is an 'aduan' because quite obviously there have been a mistake in the statement." "Alright... and please submit a surat rayuan to make this report official." bugger. i doubt if he understood what i have said. anything that is alien to him probably goes to the file as a plea. incident #2 i dunno what to call this...underhand tactics? Company A is a customer who bought a large amount of security device from my company. i met their representative once when i did a demo for him. a few days later, he called and asked me to do some "freelance" wor...
