I had an M.D. client who was still faxing me information at 5:30PM on the 15th. Last mail pickup in town is 7PM. Client had a $140K liability, and was risking late filing penalty of $7000 in order to try to squeeze out a few hundred more $ in travel expenses and office supplies. They picked up their return at the curb of my office building at about 6:55. I still don’t know (and don’t particularly care) if they got it postmarked in time. I doubled my hourly rate on that one.
People are just plain CRAZY!!!!!!

This is a rant.
People who wait until the last minute.
Rant, rant, rant, rant, rant.
I guess that's all for now.
