Too Good To Last
So here I was enjoying having worked out by myself how to get articles from the British Library. I was ignoring the slight anxiety that came with thinking it was too good to be true. Madame hadn't interfered and everything seemed to be going smoothly.
This morning I gave the credit card information back to her for safe keeping. After a few minutes there was this exclamation from behind me and she say 'I spelled the name wrong!' Oh well. I shot off an email to the British Library to ask what I should do about this. She also asked me where the copy of the fax order was. No, it was online. I had told her every step I'd taken but she has a selective memory mostly because she doesn't think I'm important enough to take notice of when I'm talking. "I thought there was a problem with the online ordering?" No there was a problem with one of the forms but there was a 2nd copy of the order form on a different page and it worked fine. Now she's grumbling because she doesn't trust online ordering. Never mind that faxing the credit card info could have the order form sitting on a fax tray for anyone to see. Never mind. Try to get past the annoyances of the whole thing.
