The Most Bizarre Ways Clients Have Submitted Documents: Share Your Stories!

In the world of client communications, receiving documents can often feel like an adventure—and not always the good kind. I’d like to invite you to reminisce about your most unusual document submissions. Here’s my personal experience to kick things off.

Imagine this: a client emails me a photo of a PDF displayed on their iPad. But here’s the twist—it was taken with a Samsung phone! The result? We had to resort to the old-fashioned method of processing that invoice manually. It’s moments like these that can leave you shaking your head.

Now, I’m curious to hear from you. Have you encountered any strange or funny document submissions? Perhaps you’ve received handwritten notes, upside-down scans, or files renamed to something like “Image(345).jpg.” Whatever the case may be, we want to hear your tales!

I’m currently gathering stories for a project aimed at streamlining this kind of chaos. Rest assured, I’m not selling anything; I’m simply looking to connect with others who have experienced the same frustrations in this chaotic realm of document submissions. Join in, and let’s share the laughter and commiseration together!
