I've been working flat out for about a fortnight to get two projects finished for today - late nights, weekends, the works. Today the key client staff are off ill. I hate the world and my eyes about to climb out of my head and run off under the couch.

This is normal for high pressure projects. Not that people necessarily get ill - they're just as likely to go off on holiday, or be eaten by giant lizards from Saturn, or such. (Or both.)

But that's how Saturn does it. Astro-scoffers, beware.

After chasing you to the point of harassment to make sure you are working on the project and there is no slippage, and then taking forever to respond when you have requested information or feedback.

Hope they're back in time to write the check.
