That time a client in Atlanta tried to rewrite our entire project scope during a Friday 4 PM call
I had this client in Atlanta who waited until 4 PM on a Friday to demand we add 3 extra features to their website for free. She said "well, I assumed you'd include it" and I lost it. Told her our contract clearly stated scope changes cost extra and she got all huffy. Ended up spending Saturday fixing the mess anyway because my boss caved. Has anyone else had a client try to sneak in free work at the last minute like that?

Four PM on a Friday is such a power move, isn't it? Did your boss at least make them pay extra for the Saturday work?

Not really, I see it the other way. Dropping a last minute Saturday request on a Friday afternoon is a bad move on their part, not a power move by the boss. They should have planned ahead or offered more notice. Paying extra is the bare minimum for working a weekend, not some kind of favor. If anything, it shows they know they messed up and are trying to buy their way out of it.
