... and here's the thing nobody talks about with fixed price contracts. Your scope language matters way more than the price itself. I've seen guys write "revisions" without defining what a revision actually is. One round of changes could mean three tweaks to the homepage, not a full content rewrite across every page and three new features. You gotta spell out what a "revision round" covers and what counts as a new request that triggers a new scope. Otherwise the client will keep testing those boundaries all day long. Your mileage may vary but I learned that lesson the hard way on a landscaping website I did for a buddy's uncle.

Wow, seriously? That guy must have been having a really bad day or something. I mean, come on, it's a coworking space not a coffee shop where you're supposed to be chatting people up. But here's the thing that gets me - did he actually say it was 'rude' or did he say it was 'disrespectful'? I'm trying to picture the exact wording because those two things feel different to me, like one is about social etiquette and the other is about some weird respect thing that doesn't apply to headphones in a quiet zone.
