Have to agree, it's a funny story but charging someone a stupidity rate for nonexistent work isn't justified by that person being stupid and a pain in your ass. Unless your circumstances force you, you can always just refuse work from customers like this. So many people downvoting this is disappointing.

Yeah, sometimes you get down voted and realize your take was a bad one. This is not one of those times.
