I used to do about 300 half page 600 or so for full... Tell them to use word count in Microsoft word. People are stupid.

Have any fuckers in the Marketing industry EVER FUCKING HEARD OF IT?
It’s bad enough that I have to do these shitty corporate newsletters month after agonising month, couldn’t they at least have a cursory glance at how much copy was supplied last time? No! Instead I have to ring them and say “pretty please can you please cut four fifths of this shit out so I can place one of your low-res happy-fucking-snaps?”
Is it just me?
