In the wee morning of X'mas day, she tries to put a foot into matters she knows only of one-sided, without even attempting to take a back step and listen, she just bites and doesn't let go, eventually losing her temper and started screaming.
Observe before you listen. Listen before you analysis.
Analysis before you act. Act without regrets.
I feel that you should always start off by observing every little detail. Taking an overview of the situation. After that, listen. Listen to all accounts, all points of view. Afterall, everyone will have their own perspective of what happened. And they will be blinded by their own point of vision. Only after observing and listening can you piece together a complete account. Then you can analysis.
Then you can judge.
This is not the first time she does this. Alot of times when I am trying to tell her something, after the first line, she will jump into conclusion. And once she does that she bites and doesn't let go, disregarding whatever you say next and taking it all just to twist it back to you, making sure she stands right with her initial statement.
Rats, what a way to start off X'mas.

My work is cheap
I seriously don't get it.
Why is it that because I am a designer, friends assume that they can get me to design for them for free? Or sometimes for peanuts. Is it because my work is cheap? Is design an inferior profession?
You don't conclude that you will have a free lifetime warranty for your car if you have a mechanic friend, do you? You don't fork out some pennies and expect your doctor friend to keep you healthy for the rest of your life, do you?
I mean, I don't mind fixing a piece of work you are finishing already, or clearing some bugs your site might have.. That's fine.
But from scratch?
Head to toe?
