My company recently made a website for some finance company. They told our designer what they wanted, the designer did her thing, we presented the design, they gave their feedback, we made changes, and at some point we arrived at a design that the client approved.

First thing the client did after the site went live was to completely replace all the text. All of it. The design was specifically made to accommodate the text that they had written themselves. The new text was SIGNIFICANTLY more than what the site was designed around, and of course it broke the whole thing.

"Why does this section look so bad", asks the client. Could that be because you pasted four whole paragraphs into a box that was supposed to display one short sentence, you absolute moron? The site's been up for about a week and they're already demanding a rather extensive redesign of the whole thing. Why the fuck did you approve it then?
