I'll start with myself. Once, a client to whom I developed the site and transferred all the source code came to me 3 years later and asked me to transfer the source code of his site to him. It turned out that all these years, he had not even checked the site or looked at it. After 3 years, he still decided to look at his site, but he could not find it and asked me to send him all the source materials again and launch it on a new domain. It's good that all the information on his project has been stored on our corporate server so far, and I successfully sent the data to the client. But the whole team was in shock. 😅

The company owner that ordered the project from us promised not to get involved in our work since he said that he did not understand anything about it. But the very next day, he called me and began to tell me that I was doing everything wrong. By the way, we ended up not working with them because all the decisions there were made by the company's owner, even the CEO did not decide anything.
