    That reminds me of a friend whose co-workr complained that all she could see on her computer screen were, I think, “L’s” He walked over and moved a book that was touching her keyboard.

    This week I mouthed the words “I charge a reader’s fee” and then tried it out on a client who didn’t blink…

    wow, I felt so adult, with actual worth in the world…

    Client: Okay I’ve booked space in this paper, this magazine and this mail-out.

    Me: Cool. What are the sizes?

    Client (snappish): Well whatever the size is! Paper, magazine and envelope!

    Me (making a note to add service fees to the final invoice): How about you email me the names of the people you spoke to and I’ll get the information. It needs to be a wee bit more specific.

    I swear I should be allowed to gut one client a year with a rusty can opener flinging their organs about the street screaming “Stop making my job harder!” as a warning to others.
