When's the free lunch? That's what I came for.

Besides, all my files look good on my screen, so ... what's the problem?

Ah yes, my favorite! Or..."Why don't your prints match the prints from my $100 HP inkjet printer?"

man! that is the worst

I had a "professional" photographer's client complain to me that the photos were flat and bleh. Then the photographer came to complain to me and said JUST THAT! I asked, "is your monitor calibrated to my press?" He didn't understand.

Also, I hate Canva sooooo much. Everyone thinks they're a designer now. And they get annoyed with me that I can't provide tech support for canva... not my job, but also, i've never used canva.

I don't mind canva so much. We have screenshots of the settings in Canva and we are slowly getting more files with bleeds now that I can send them screenshots and show them how to download with a bleed and keep their stuff away from the edges of the file. I do dislike that canva locked the CMYK download behind a paywall though. That was pretty uncool of them but I understand they ave to make money somehow.

Obviously you’re late as everyone already had their free lunch, long ago…. any other questions you might have, you‘ll have to ask the person sitting next to you.

Because we can't make it as crappy looking as your inkjet print.

Nah, I wouldn't want to wake him up.
