I know myself I can think of many instances of designers blowing time lines, they themselves set, by weeks/months. I have received designs that were not completed. Designs that still needed revisions after 1st version, and they did not want to do because of dead grannies, their computer blew up, internet connections down, or other 'classics'.
I would be the similar stories of people being fucked by designers far outweigh the examples a designer can give on the other side of the fence. Hands down.

much more problems occur on the lower bargain deals - combo of cheap clients wanting everything for nothing being major pain in the butt + not very skilled designer with total loss of motivation after first few days dealing with crazy mofos. I don't mean anyone particular, just an observation after years of dealing with both sides of a fence.
