Oh man, I relate to this so much.
What usually happens to me is, 6 months later, the client will come back with a question or complaint that makes it painfully apparent that they haven't bothered to look at this new urgent feature since deployed. -
Root772316yCongratulations, you killed your first client!
The first one is always the hardest.
It gets easier (and funnier) every time. -
stacked26286y@Root lol, not my first client, and not the first time this happens for sure, but I needed a place where to rant :-)
Plus, these people work for the same company as me, and are supposed to work very closely with our team, and are supposed to follow a certain "culture" and "principles". But that's another story...

DRBragg7Got my first paycheck as a Developer. devDucks Ordered! :)

One of our internal customers to my team: "We need this new feature to be implemented as soon as possible! It's super urgent!! Work on it asap!! PEOPLE ARE DYING!!"
Us: "Ok, we'll prioritize this feature and deliver it as soon as we can"
Them: "Is it ready yet?"
Them: "Is it ready yet?"
Them: "Is it ready yet?"
Them: "Is it ready yet?"
... One month later ...
Them: "Is it ready yet?"
Us: "We're done! We implemented everything as promised! Please give us your credentials so that we can whitelist you and you can start using the new service"
Them: "Okay, we will get back to you"
... Two months have passed since then and still not a single word from them. I'm starting to wonder: are they still alive? 🤔
