Reading your post made me remember the owner of the copy shop I managed ~12 years ago(specifically the, "They won't spend the time messing about with these sort of customers" part).Good luck with that. Companies like sticker mule will just print them out 20,000 copies of the label from whatever artwork is sent, so the customer will probably end up with something unusable and not looking how they expected.
Yes, they can be good but they are cheap for a reason. They won't spend the time messing about with these sort of customers
I would get a client as you were referring to and refuse to concede to their insanity. They would always demand to talk to the manager. "Speaking", I would respond. "Then I want to talk to the owner"!
I would tell them when the owner is in the shop and encourage them to take their complaint up with him. I made sure I was there for the delivery of the complaint.
Like clockwork, as soon as the owner got the complaint he would say(in a thick Iranian accent), "GET OUT! AND DO NOT COME BACK"!
Then he would turn around and tell us, "You cannot make money off these types of people".
I miss that guy so much.
He called me Mr. Scott(my first name), so I called him Mr. Shah(his). He was a great guy and probably the best owner I ever worked for.
