'You could probably get the yarn for a LOT less': Customer advises blanket creator to lower prices and respond to messages faster

Some crafty folks enjoy selling their creations, but their customers seem to feel entitled to every step of the process.

In the social media era, it's never been easier to feel closer to your favorite artist. The common adage is that people are attracted to the process of creating art, and lots of social media savvy creators are now showing their processes publically. This especially draws attention if your artwork involves dripping lots of paint down a canvas or frosting a cake at 5x speed. The more hypnotic your process is, the more fans you can gain!

This person creates blankets on commission. They shared this wild conversation between them and a customer who felt oddly entitled to telling the creator what to do. The conversation gets off to a rough start when the customer tells the artist it's "not a very good business practice" to not respond to clients. The blanket maker confirms that they were out of town, but the client doesn't get any nicer toward the artist from there. Even through texts, her snotty tone comes across loud and clear. "I want a blanket. In a catherine's wheel stitch. You do know what that is right?" the customer writes. This blanket creator clearly has the patience of a saint to let customers talk to them that way!

Check out the entire conversation below. Then, these employees told stories about the dumbest things their bosses have ever asked them to do, like one unfortunate employee tasked with "printing the intranet."
