One of my clients wants a small graphic image, reminiscent of events in the story, inserted before each chapter head/title. We were going to use Word ClipArt, but after some research, discovered we did not have a license for commercial use.
So I hunted around on the web and found some royalty-free graphic art and just what my client is looking for.
One of my boss' is doing the InDesign layout. So last night I emailed it to her with an explanation and told her that I just needed the client's approval before she could move forward.
This morning she wrote back, "great, etc., 'e-mail me the graphic.'"
*crickets*
Uh, it was attached to the original email.
Honest to dog, it's hard to respect this kind of idiocy.
I realize that people aren't perfect, I'm certainly not, but when it happens with every. single. interaction? There's a problem. I'm seriously wondering about dementia or Alzheimer's -- this person is in their 60s so it wouldn't be out of the range of consideration. I've heard of it starting in people as early as the mid 40s.
But just...wow.
