Shoutout to the agency guy in Austin who laughed when I said $75 an hour

I was at a coffee shop near South Congress and overheard a client bragging about paying a designer $20 an hour for logo work like it was a flex. Am I the only one who thinks we should be defending our rates instead of acting like cheap work is a win?

Valuing your work cheap just hurts everyone else trying to make a living too.
