Irritating

One can be very irritating sometimes.. like situation below:-

Ms. V : Shannen, I have a joint promotion coming up, kicks off on 1st July. I need header board and entry form. I know you will tell me you don't have enough time for printing and stuff... it's okay if the POS materials reach us few days late...

Ms. S : I'm afraid I could not meet your deadline. You know, from designing, seeking buyer's approval, amendment (if any) and finally printing, I need at least 2 weeks or more and now I left about 10 days to complete everything!

Ms. V : I will let you know the details asap.

Ms. S : Can you request logo from buyer so that I can feature it on the header board.

Ms. V : What kind of logo?

Ms. S : Logo like we asked from Giant for joint promotion.

Ms. V : How and where do I get the logo?

Ms. S feels this is the "stupidest" question that she ever heard. Why ? Ms. V is the channel manager and handling this account, and funniest part is, she doesn't know how to get it and ask me??

Ms. S : Of course you can ask from SS buyer or whom may concerns...

(After a while.... Ms. S received e-mail from Ms. V c/w logos attachment)

Ms. S : So many logos, which should I feature?

Ms. V : You think which 1 suitable, then you use that 1...

Ms. S shakes head... again, speechless..

Ms. S : Can you please confirm which logo to use to prevent any mistake and wasting time to do the amendment...

Ms. V : Nvm wat, anyhow.. you have to send the artwork to buyer for approval..

Ms. S : Yes, but then.. I don't want to waste time to change the logo, can you please confirm me ?

Ms. V : Okay... choose the 1 they used regularly, the logo with retailer's name at bottom..

Ms. S : Thanks..
