Had a gut churning call from Printer today......
"Calendar has problems and you need to come in before we can proceed to Proof stage." was the message I got. So calling back I finally get to speak with Printer dude and though I asked in a few different ways apparently the problem was so complex that I just had to go in.
Well, it's pissing down with rain and thunder storms forecast, but of course I didn;t check weather this morning and it looked okay as I jumped on the bike to ride to work. So after talking to Printer I go look out window at my bike and really, REALLY don;t want to ride there as I don;t have wet weathers and I will have to sit in my office for the rest of the day dripping wet.
f*** f*** f***!!!!!!!
Thankfully the lovely better half calls and is bringing in some lunch and will drive me to printers, PHEW.
Poor guy came down to see me with half a ream of A3 paper and is trying to tell me that the layout is all wrong. I look at what he has printed and calmly ask if he read the email I sent him. "of course I did but as you have no experience doing this obviously the layout is wrong!" is the reply...
"HHmmmm.... well mate in my email I did say the print layout is for a double sided print, not single sided as you did it here. If you print it out as I sent it but double sided you will find it works perfectly cause I tested it 2 times"
We then spend next 10 minutes flipping and rotating the single side printed pages and hey presto.. it worked just like I said it would LOL
I should have proof in next day and still got pick-up for this Friday.
f*&^ing hell though, I had a few hours of wondering what the f*** I did wrong and how many hours is it going to take for me to fix it...
Still on schedule Peeps
