Worst Nightmare
August 21, 2008
We almost got killed on a deadline. Everyone - including me - always says, "Before you do anything with the case file, check the relevant deadlines." Somehow no one - including me - did that. Luckily I decided to review the file once more before bed. "Oh, sheet, no one checked the deadline."
Scary stuff, since this was a jurisdictional deadline.
It really is impossible to nag on someone to always check the deadlines. It seems basic, because it is basic. Often, it's the basic stuff that kills you.
