I just growled at my computer. Didn't actually realize I was doing it until I was already growling. Stupid client and his stupid typos and stupid stupid stupid! Gah! How am I supposed to analyze numerical data when it's riddled with typos?
Observation: Clients who send malformed data tend to send it in annoying proprietary formats, most likely Excel.
There has to be a "client voodoo doll" out there for sale somewhere. Just don't get angry at the computer. It didn't do anything wrong...this time.
Resigned comment: Back to being satanic and figuring out whether a client can fire a guy for inappropriate behavior resulting from depression brought on by dealing with ALS.
