Lotta ground to cover here. I understand and agree with your points about the idiot consumers out there, possibly because I am also a code monkey.
I want to do the job because I want it done right, and I won’t know exactly what I want until I’ve done my homework. I can’t delegate it and get the result I want. As far as negotiation, I’ll take my chances since I have the experience and skill to do it.

I have repeatedly acknowledged the value that my agent brought to my deal.
