Client wanted revisions forever until I added a limit in the contract

I had a website project in Austin last year where the client kept asking for tiny changes to the homepage for three months straight. She would email at 10pm asking to move a button two pixels left, then right again the next day. I finally added a clause that gives them two rounds of revisions included, then $50 per hour after that. The next client I pitched that to actually respected the rules and we finished on time. Has anyone else added a hard cutoff for edits that actually worked?

Three months for button pixels? Sounds like a you problem honestly lol.

A buddy of mine had the exact same issue with his 5th gen Focus. He tried fixing the radio presets and somehow ended up with every pixel on the screen showing a light bulb icon instead of numbers. Took him four months to get the part from a salvage yard in Ohio. Said he just learned to drive without a radio for a while.

Can't believe he just drove without a radio for four months man. @oliver_baker49 that light bulb icon thing sounds like some kind of glitch I've never seen before. Did he try pulling the fuse or something before giving up? I woulda lost my mind driving in silence that long, even if the presets were all broken. Took four months to find the part too, that's brutal.
