Last night was my demotion party as president of my Rotary Club. It was great fun reviewing all of the cook stuff we did during the year and getting roasted. However, I am looking forward to sitting in the back of the room and chit-chatting instead of having 60+ people watch me eat lunch.
I'm at complete loggerheads with a client. I won't bore you with the details, but I'm working with them to get some City money for job training. They have a completely delusional idea of what needs to be in the proposal. Another group is proposing something completely different, yet they want what I write to look like theirs. There have been other issues on the project. From my point of view they're slow turning things around and in paying me. They clearly don't see me as sufficiently compliant.
I've run into this problem a couple of other times in my consulting career (I've been doing this for nearly 20 years). However, at times like this that I wonder if it's me or them.

Twenty years...and only a couple of times they got difficult.
I'm no data scientist consulting type---but I'm going to guess that it's THEM.
Because YOU are awesome.
Of course, that's assuming that I know about all of them.
