"and not only that but a tendency to overreact to a client’s innocent requests or questions. Knock it off."
Maybe some of the CFH posts are overreactions, but I see way more posts that aren't.
For example, "Next time we meet, you might wear something a little more low cut. We’ll get more done." I don't think that it is an overreaction to call that a bad client. Complaining about fonts, white space, etc actually seems to be the minority on CFH. Most posts now seem to be utterly absurd examples, like the one I quoted above, or billing disputes.
The writer could have done a nice post reminding designers to be patient with clients lacking design knowledge without even mentioning CFH.
