Title: Bizarre Client Document Submissions: Share Your Stories!
In the world of freelance and client-based work, communication is key, especially when it comes to document submissions. However, sometimes, clients can turn an ordinary task into a head-scratching experience. I’d like to share an amusing example I encountered while working with a client.
One day, I received a document that was, wait for it, a photo of a PDF displayed on their iPad, snapped with a Samsung phone, and sent via email. As you can imagine, extracting the necessary information from that image resulted in a manual processing nightmare for us!
Now, I’m curious to hear from others in the community. What’s the most unusual or outlandish way you’ve received a document from a client? Perhaps it was a handwritten note, an upside-down scan, or a file with a generic name like “Image(345).jpg.”
I’m gathering these stories to shed light on the chaotic landscape of document submissions, hoping to find a solution to bring more organization to this process. Please share your experiences; I can’t be the only one facing these amusing challenges!
