Every do a favor for a friend or business associate only to have them not only not return the favor but nit-pick on everything you're doing.

That's how I'm feeling right now.  I feel like I'm volunteering time to help landscape a friend's yard only to have my friend sit there and nit-pick the way I'm digging or complain that I'm not going fast enough.

Except this is in the realm of business.  We have certain levels of custom service we're used to being able to provide to our customers but I feel thwarted in being able to provide any flexibility to customers because our partner is a control freak.  But that doesn't stop them from asking for tons of favors from us that we don't have to do.

Ack!
