Coordinating multiple vendors towards one common goal is problematic at best. Its something I used to be quite good at, however, when you have multiple vendors that are waiting on one piece of paper from another vendor, and that lady says that she doesn't know how the paperwork ended up back on her desk, you call the VP. The 31st is a bad day, end of month and all. The first must have been a holiday, but, he did call me and say he would call back at noon today.

The answer was sort of: while we cannot fix what went wrong, we can absitively, posilutely guarantee that we will not miss the deadline I have just set....... and how about the fact that your call was 5 hours late? haha. sorry, getting a bit punchy dealing with stuff.

Once this process is over, I might take an hour off to gather my thoughts before getting back to the grind.
