Do they still pay you the same amount?

• michaelt 1y ago
  I can't speak for the OP, but I have customers I still support, because they supported me many years ago when I was a teenager taking my first steps into industry. Does it make me money? Barely a cent. But I can spare a hour or two a year for the guy who gave me a leg up and trusted a teenager who probably shouldn't have been trusted. And I like the feeling of having something I worked on still going strong 20+ years later, when so much of my later work has been thrown away by the endless corporate rewrite treadmill.

    Same situation, 10+ yrs deep with my first client, project still chugging along while I tackle bigger fish. Can't justify spending much time on it now but a DIY no/low code solution for them isn't a bad idea.

  They've always paid me per hour. The fewer hours, the better for me: just like the sibling post, I'm also not in it for the money. I care for both the customer and the project, and I'm happy that we've found a way to get the development going again with really minimal effort from my side.
