I thought you had recoiled from paying Adobe anything and we’re using some other package?
It a moot point, but I only stopped using Affinity because it wouldn’t open Sony raw files properly. I haven’t tried the Fuji files on there…they may be ok.
It’s not the monthly amount persay that irritates me, it’s the fact I don’t use PS from one month to the next. If I go on there ….say 4 or 5 months ( after holidays) a year, I am effectively paying 2 to 3 x the price.
Bring back the CD.
The older I get the more Yorkshire I become.
Needed to replace a vertical blind runner for patio doors. The blind supplier wanted £148 to replace it.
Went on line and bought the track for £35. Fitted into same clips in 30secs.
I wanted to change the entry door locks to thumb locks ( we keep leaving keys insitu stopping opening from outside)
Double glazing men came down measured up 2 locks. Quoted £152 for supply and fitting 2 new locks.
Went on line ….£12 each. I literally fitted them both while the kettle boiled.
I know in business they have to make a living…been there got the tee shirt.
But since the pandemic (and Brexit) people are just taking the p!
Most people now have zero practical skills.
I dont know what schools teach these days but I think it must be limited to 'How to feel insulted', 'I am entitled ....', 'My rights have been infringed by that.....', etc..
Good trained tradespeople are rare, getting them to turn up in Cornwall seems to be difficult, customer care is a thing of the past. Need I go on..... Then people wonder why they have less money that before.
