I developed a tool for engineers over a year ago and has been used a lot.

I ain't gonna say what it is but will show you some things I've learned. Engineering companies usually charge about $100 per hour for project managers and project engineers... at a minimum.

This tool has been hit on average 200 times per day over the past year. The reason I developed it because in my line of work it saved me about 2 hours of project time.

I recently put the site behind a u/p to obtain information and also stop some of the bots.

These are the emails and messages I get:

"I just tried to login into xxxx.com and I have a screen asking me to log in. I never did this before and don't understand why I need to now"

"i have done everything possible to try and login to your site and your site just doesn't work. I've been using your site and would like to know why I even have to create an account anyway!"

"why do I have to login now! can you please have your engineering department contact me asap so I can use the site."

etc. etc.

I got very, very few responses saying that they appreciate the free tool and it has saved them shitloads of time on their projects.

So here are my figures...

200 searches*48 weeks*5 days per week*$200 per search in savings is about...

9.6 million dollars saved in this fucking world.

This is the same mentality that surfers have when they have access to free porn...

Give them an inch they want the world... porn is no different as people are inherently selfish, rude and quite simply assholes!

makes ya think...
