Ditto! The publisher of a newspaper I worked for was on my back because it
was taking me some time to get a car ad finished. Couldn't understand why
I couldn't just click on the background of a photo and hit delete. In other
words, (lacking additional plugins) I was hand masking the auto photographs
as per customers request. The publisher swore I could just click and delete
the oil stained pavement, other cars, trees, sky, etc. I wasted another half
hour just trying to explain. Of course, she never exactly admitted she was
wrong, she just told me to proceed.

While this was back around 1996, similar instnaces happen with clients from
time to time. Was asked by a client the other day where I got the figures
for her logo. "I drew them..." She's of a mind that we all just use clip art
and put it together.
