I asked him if he would come up with a few options. And he said, ‘No, I will solve your problem for you, and you will pay me. And you don’t have to use the solution — if you want options, go talk to other people. But I’ll solve your problem for you the best way I know how, and you use it or not, that’s up to you — you’re the client — but you pay me.’
GOD I wish someone would say this at my office. You wouldn’t believe how many door+window options we have produced, and how many ceiling types, and options options options! And the client can never decide on anything!
