the good and the bad of it

[lagilman]

Good: an editorial assistant (the ever-affable Adam) who lets me know when things (in this case, proofs) are incoming well ahead of time.

Bad: a production department that lies to Adam.

Good: Adam knows that they lie to him, and can take appropriate proactive (evasive?) measures.

Bad: I still have proofs for Burning Bridges that are currently due back two weeks before expected.

Good: Adam is hunting down the drop-dead date, so we can kill it.

I need to buy Adam a drink. Or three. (ETA: or the entire damned bottle)
