I think your hypothetical scenario doesn't match the issue being discussed in a few key aspects.
You're giving old clothes with no expectation of return. Why then get pissed because someone is using your clothes without paying you for them?
Then,if you make it your point to put up a system for everyone to file tickets pointing problems with the clothes you're giving away, why are you whining that the system is being used as it was designed to be used?
It's perfectly fine if you feel the need to prioritize your work based on your criteria alone, and anyone else's input is at most a suggestion. That's what everyone expects of it, too. But don't throw a tantrum when someone uses your work precisely as you told the world to use it.
The point of my comment seems to have missed you, turned around and done another pass and missed you again.
I don't think you are able to grok the actual issue, which is a big corp demanding free work, then demanding a pittance to complete the work, then being buthurt when people refuse to work with them.
So is the real analogy …
You gave some old clothes to charity, expecting nothing back. However you spotted a lawyer wearing your old clothes so walked up and demanded money?
No no no lawyer came knocking at my door begging me to darn a sock
And of course you said “sorry but I can’t do that right now” and went on with your life , rather than jumping down his throat, then holding a grudge for 11 months?
If the dude was so tone deaf and myopic I'd post a bad review on yelp
Where did they demand it?
Learn how to read man.
I guess I can't so can you just quote it?
Nah, do the work yourself.
I looked and couldn't find it, that's why I said what I said
I get that you're dyslexic but take the time to read what was written before responding.
I'm just dumb, but I don't see how what they said is wrong
