I think last time you posted your salary everybody told you that sort of job 
should be paid way more.

Funny, the customers I have worked with know exactly what they want, usually 
slighty more than they know any supplier can manage to encourage development 
and push the technology forwards.

Yes that happens sometimes, you just have to live with it, it's part of the 
job.  Hey customers even *cancel* projects after you've spent several months 
working hard and you get nothing back for that work.

> and they'll simply never be happy no matter what you do.)

Of course not, if they were then another unhappy customer would come along 
and force you to work harder and make a superior product :-)

> Personally, I prefer knowing exactly what I'm supposed to be doing.

Most managers would prefer an employee who can think for themselves rather 
than needing to have everything explained to them like a baby.
