    Client: Can you change it to say “Continue” instead of “Skip?”

    Me: Of course!  It’s funny, that’s actually what I originally put there but you asked me to change it. It’s nice to be right once in a -

    In the midst of building a high def video website for a client:


    Client: So, I’m starting to this this video site
    idea is a bad thing.  I just don’t think that broadband penetration in
    the US is there yet.  It’s only 26% in US households.


    Me: [Dumbfounded] The US numbers are way higher than that - we presented the data a few months ago. 


    Client: Well, I found some new numbers that conflict with that data.


    Me: What’s your source?


    Client:  Wikipedia.com


    Me: [Mute phone to laugh out loud]  Well, I like Wikipedia as much as the next guy, but anyone can just edit the page to -


    Client:  Look, it’s internet numbers are on the internet. If you can find a more reliable source than that…


    I quickly pull up the wikipedia page and - 


    Me: Hey, quickly refresh the page, the numbers are over 90% now.



    haahaha


    and


    Client: I want more ethnic people, I feel as if there are too many “white” people.


    Me: I see only one picture with Caucasian people in it - you want them gone?


    Client: Maybe you could just give them a tan? Or make them more “thuggish?”
