10. I'd imagine for an architect, this would be the least desirable 'gig' out there
Thu Dec 4, 2025, 05:28 PM

1) You're working for a psychopath
2) You probably won't get paid when you send in your invoice
3) You're trying to please someone with no taste or sense of style
4) You'll be subject to unreasonable demands
5) Anything that ends up being built will be demolished as soon as tRump is dead

The list goes on....
