Thank you for curing me of that brief moment of insanity I had there much like Anita.

I am so lucky to have the job I have – MY JOB ROCKS!

I keep asking one site how they are going to rank for anything at all, when, after 16 months they still haven’t written any content.

I ask less frequently these days. Last time was about 3 months ago. Probably won’t ask again.

Wow – that soo brings home why I don’t have clients… and how insane was the brief thought/inclination I had a few months ago on starting a consultancy…

I have total admiration and respect for those of you who have to deal with clients though – it’s a thankless job.

Much appreciated insight, Julie.

Yes, those are classic issues.

I don’t know whether you allow links in comments, but here is a great illustration of how client needs and actual product delivery don’t always match:
