Open letter to users of consultants

I do a form of consulting. Some days it is a wretched existence. So to all users of consultants, I issue this letter:

To those who use consultants:
Each day, you have a list of things to get done, people asking you to do more things, people you have to get back to, etc. You can feel pulled in many directions and fall behind at times. Now, imagine this multiplied by 3 to 10 times. That is what us consultants deal with. Many days, we can hardly keep up and deal with what you are giving us, let alone the other clients demanding the same. Your company pays good money for us because we have an expertise in something and more likely than not, that does not include the ability to do more than one job at once. We have no magical powers, though, we may be slightly crazy or have some bizarre overconfidence to endure the onslaught of work and what you clients subject us to. Just because you pay for us does not give you the right to be mean to us. I bet there are some escorts with comparable bill rates that get treated better. They see 100% (before taxes) of their fees. We (those actually doing the work for you) only see about 15 percent of our billable rate (less if we actually charged you our full billing rate).

I am not asking for sympathy for I was dumb/crazy enough to pick this career. However, I just ask you to not beat, yell at, or have unrealistic expectations for your whore.

-Your consultant
