Humor

Poor communication skills

I used to run a small web design business, and you wouldn't believe some of the barely-readable emails I got from clients and potential clients. Here's a sampling.


I'd spoken with potential client a couple of times previously by telephone.

mike email a couple time with  my ideal about website it till good, but going into different direction with women designer handbags just need ideal how website well go I know you down  for 250 product  for bakery is ok switch that to handbags but I didn't think I need 250 product but can we make adjustment to price in beginning or later down the line just need ideal for website design right now  michael work 12hr day and think have been slow sorry about that. try to call you this friday after I get up on eastern standard times

My friend Amanda offered to translate it back into English:

He has emailed you about an idea for a website. He still wants a website but he wants to sell women's handbags with it now. He wants to get an idea of how the website will be done. He knows you can do 250 products for a bakery website (maybe this was his last idea?), which is okay, but he wants to switch to selling handbags, in which case it might be too many. But he assumes you can change his plan down the line to accomodate more or less products, and adjust the price accordingly. Right now he wants to work on the design, then figure out how many products he needs later. He apologizes for being slow to contact you, as he works a 12 hour day. He will try to call you Friday, after he wakes up. He is in the Eastern standard time zone.


Another potential client. Oh, the irony.
