How many times have you heard colleagues complain about <insert expletive> customers and clients? Having been around the block more than a few times, I've heard a LOT of people complain about clients. I know one fellow that sold off his software just to get rid of it because his customer base was just full of horrible people.
I've not got that problem! I'm seriously, really very lucky. The kind of people that use GDT are really some of the coolest people out there. I get emails from people on a very regular basis, and they're really all very positive, happy, nice people. With so much negativity out there (turn on the TV news), it's really refreshing!
And this has been going on for YEARS!
It's nothing new for me. My GDT customers for years have really been a very cool bunch of people to talk with.
I just got another email from someone today, and it reminded me about just how lucky I am.
The sad part is that I know a lot of guys developing software out there that aren't as lucky as me. I feel like I'm really sort of the "odd man out" in that respect. But hey! It's a good way to be!
Cheers,
Ryan
