Just as I was ready to send a draft file to my client, I notice an e-mail from them that arrived just 2 hours earlier. I took a look and it's basically a "Where's our stuff?" note. They told me they needed this by the 15th. Today is what? The 4th? I don't know what they're thinking, but according to my math, I have 11 more days. *dumbstruck* Come on people, be reasonable...
I know what it is though. They just like to get it all done waaaaay earlier than needed and just sit on the stuff and stare at them until they're actually needed. These particular people are "hurry up and wait" type. They still like to delude themselves with the idea that you can be ready for absolutely everything and anything if you get started early enough. I guess they like things predictable.
Or... it could be their printer guy. He was a mess last time... always asking for way more time than he ever actually needed... a worrywart. XD
It's a good thing the pay is good on this project. ^_^; Oh, well.
