You... would be surprised. I've been asked to implement "pixel perfect" designs on mid-six figure projects, and explaining that that isn't how the web works can be fruitless when their background is in traditional media.

Oh boy, the "pixel perfect" storm period couple of years ago. Luckily I waiter it over on cozy position without a need of looking for a job.
