If you get in a “yelling” match with you’re boss or your own personal client, do you usually back down? Lmao

Just wondering cause I just got into it with one of my clients’ points of contact (I’m a freelancer), and I’m not sure if she expected me to back down🤣 she was clearly in the wrong, and I embarrassed her, and made sure the client knew it when I sent a video in our slack channel

Ohhh noooooo, TRUST ME. It’s that bad lol we were going at it on our zoom call, and this was me trying to be nice afterwards. I was literally like “what is it that you’re not understanding” cause she kept giving me attitude.

Then she was like “I’ll just do it myself” and rolled her eyes. I smiled and said “perfect :) let me know if there is anything else!” And hung up.

I sent this nice message with a loom video of my partner after our call so that our client saw she’s a dummie.

Who you asking to watch a video here? You client? Is the video of a zoom call between you and the client’s poc?

It’s odd that they mentioned twice that they won’t see the video and ended the message saying what they expect. So I would send the outcome of your meeting with the poc.

If you are Jeremy” then you need to do the apology tour for “getting into it” and then back down. The again, I can’t tell who is the client and who is the contractor in this message.

I went through a pretty rigorous interview process for a marketing project manager but ultimately wasn't given job. Though most of the feedback was positive, the other candidate had more direct experience with the job responsibilities (digital assets, social media, etc.) My job/company dabbles in digital but it's primarily traditional media. How do I again the experience if I'm limited by the type of work we do?
