The rush assignment this morning has reminded my client of my existence, it seems. This afternoon, he placed a mega-job with me which is welcome news as work has been conspicuous by its absence of late. I started the job - which is not difficult - just acres and acres of it in a relatively short timespan - and then broke off to start cooking my dinner.
A few moments ago, the phone rang again. Same client with a request for some more translation of the doner kebab job I did this morning. Would I be able to do it by tomorrow first thing? "It doesn't matter when you do it this evening, but they need it early tomorrow morning because they're going to print". [It's at times like these that my faith in the proverbial German organisation and efficiency takes a bit of a knock...]
In my previous post I wondered if I should have an early night to make up for last night's lack of sleep. I think that question has been answered now; I'd better go and find some matchsticks.
