That DM I sent in 2018 resurfaced and cost me a freelance gig

I realized I'd been recycling the same generic pitch to every client for years, then a hiring manager in Denver forwarded me an old message where I'd called her industry 'boring' and I had to own that one throwaway line.

Every pitch should assume it gets forwarded years later.

That old message biting you six years later is brutal, I feel for you man.
