That moment when you get to show off this amazing project you just finished & all they have to say is: “Meh. I bet anybody could do that.”

finishing a one pager.
"so all you did was one page? "

It's times like that where you wish it was worth it to explain to people the effort and thought that goes into a project, but know it would be wasted breath..

Fuck em we know you're important and powerful

I find this especially with design, because one of the major principles of good design is that you shouldn't be able to notice it.

And then they try in Photoshop and produce an abomination.

A buddy/client of mine is like this. If i create a new complex function which brings down server load, adds security,... he doesn't care at all. But If i adjust a button style because it was a pixel off, he calls me to tell me I'm doing a great job 😅
