Urgent? What does it mean? In practice, I find that sometimes it means "in the next couple of weeks will be OK", sometimes it means "within the next half hour".
In the days before I became freelance I once was pulled out of a meeting for an urgent subtitle translation which I then spent day and night to handle. 5 years [sic!] later it came back for a final quality check and revision before being published.
Dear Spammers, your comments will be deleted and marked as spam. Dear colleagues, I will not be able to reply to your questions. It was too much time consuming.

ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the credit, Alejandro. I am sure this situation is quite familiar to ANY translator / project manager. ;-)
