I finally told a client to leave my shop mid-project
Had a guy last month who kept showing up unannounced every afternoon to "check on progress" on his custom kitchen cabinets. He'd touch the wood, move my chisels around, and once even tried to adjust the fence on my table saw. I tried being polite for two weeks but he cost me 3 hours of work time total. Finally told him straight up his constant visits were slowing the job down and he needed to wait for my calls. He looked shocked for a second then actually apologized and backed off. Has anyone else had to put a client in their place like that?

Wait, it was really just 3 hours across two weeks? That's like 13 minutes a day. Feels like you could've just locked the shop door or put a sign up.

Fair point. Kinda feels like making a mountain out of a molehill to me.
