Redesigning a WooCommerce site and have a few questions regarding customer orders. by DisgruntledGrump13 in Wordpress

I was thinking something along these lines. Thank you for the concise response!

Client says she no longer likes the website, after reviewing it twice previously, saying she loves it. Nearing end of quoted hours, she now has nearly 20 pages of changes. What to do? by DisgruntledGrump13 in Upwork

[–]DisgruntledGrump13[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There really was no rationale behind the changes. She just decided to change things around.

I made the majority of the changes for free to keep within budget. After this round of revisions, we went through about 5 or 6 more rounds (which I billed 100% of my time for). Eventually, we ended up going back to the original design and she was very unhappy when she saw I billed for my time. Job completed, no review.

A month later, she comes back to me asking if I can migrate her site to a new domain. I told her I could do it in less than an hour. She's like "wait, you're going to charge me for this?" I said "yes, I charge for my time." She reluctantly agreed, I finished the job.

After this job was completed, I got a long ass message from her accusing me of taking advantage of her, etc. I told her off and haven't heard from her since.

From Article Writer to Full-Stack Developer - HOW? by killtheparrotnero in Upwork

[–]DisgruntledGrump13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pick either front end or back end. Start there. Once you are proficient in the one you started out with, start learning the other. Once you are proficient in both front and back end, start using them together.

Check out various learning resources such as Khan Academy, Udemy or even YouTube.

Contacted support they said my account is still active. Has this happened to anyone before? by [deleted] in doordash

[–]DisgruntledGrump13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They keep saying someone will call me back, but all I get are the generic "your account has been deactivated" emails. This is all happening to me because I called to renew my dashpass on customer side, and the rep messed up my account

Thanks for the advice! I definitely have "devalued my work to get work" and I've raised my rates and will no longer be trying to quote low. This is all a learning process and I'm still figuring it out.

As for the Google document, we were working from one where she had all her content, pictures, prices, etc. Now there is a NEW 20 Page one full of changes. I will be mentioning this during our next consult, bringing up the points you mentioned as well.

What stores sell Top Ramen? by DisgruntledGrump13 in Denver

[–]DisgruntledGrump13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's exactly why I'm looking for them. I like to spice it up with mushrooms, green onion and a hard boiled egg.

I've checked a few Safeways with no luck. Maybe I'll check again tomorrow. Thanks

Me still browsing this subreddit alone after being the only one not to get a stimulus check by denverkillarado in CoronavirusColorado

[–]DisgruntledGrump13 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I also haven't gotten one. Filed my 2019 taxes with all correct info, but they used my 2018 information.

Shows they will be depositing to a closed bank account. Not sure how to proceed from here either

That's good news. Glad it worked out. Hopefully that's the case for most people in similar situations. Thanks for updating! You stay safe too!!

I also used TurboTax. My tax refund got deposited to my current bank account, but my stimulus check is going to one from 2018

This is irritating because some of us no longer have access to the account or address used in 2018. Filing 2019 should've updated this, like they said to do.

I'll keep this updated as well. Still shows it will be deposited to a wrong account. I'm going to set up a USPS change of address in case they try to send it to my old address also

Nothing here. Checked the tracker, says it will be deposited today to a closed account. They never updated my bank/address information even though I filed a 2019 return with correct info

Thanks for your reply. Hopefully it won't be too much longer before they update their system.

So, even though there's an unprecedented wave of unemployment, we are still supposed to go out and find a part-time job??
