Work Madness.

I'm finishing up a contract here in Houston. It's a great team of people that I'm going to miss.

What I don't think I'm going to miss is one Client we have and the Underwriter that seems lost in their own reality. Granted, as an Insurance Brokerage, we're trying to accommodate the Client and the Underwriter that’s providing the Insurance for our Client.

However, this people at the Underwriters office .. the color of the sky in their world must be very nice.

Here’s the Deal. The Underwriters want some specific legaliese to appear in a specific field of Proof of Insurance Certificates. That’s all fine and well and good. However, this was brought up in Feb. They signed a contract agreeing to procedures back in December. And they’re only really now making an issue of it now.

Additionally, there has been so much back and forth on the wording ... I swear if it changes one more time, I’m going to scream! And the copy 2 versions ago couldn’t have been good English. It had a semicolon followed by an "or", followed by a comma. That couldn’t have been right.

Also, 3 iterations ago we had two choices of text. We cut it to just one. Shoved it into production. We just got word that they want an additional option of text. *sigh*

... ‘nuff work whining.
