releasing some heat...

i absolutely LOVE working with customers who think that things are very easily sewn.
like how, i can alter a small purse into a big one.
or magically turn a big purse into a small bag. with an extra this. and an extra that.
all done without destroying any pieces of fabric, without any sweat, within a blink of an eye.
such flattery of my skills and talent.
or how they think that they are the only customers i have, that i have no other work to do, other than abiding by their whims to alter an item that they had bought, that had clear photographs and dimensions stated.
puts me right back down to earth.
and the best part.
that labor is free. fucking free of charge.
ahhh, my generosity and charitable personality is being recognized by strangers...
the bestest part?
they didn't even pay anywhere close to $500 for that purse in the very first place.
damn. do i help people to save money or what. didn't cross that big head of mine to charge them like $1000 or whatever, so that i can include laborious alterations.
my un-calculativeness. such a virtue.

i'm sooo into doing cheap, one-of-a-kind stuff. not just affordable, no, but cheap.
i guess it's written on my face that i am such a sell-out craft whore.
wow. please pat me on my back for such a great life achievement.

my sarcasm is terrible. no?
off to pack my luggage.....
