Why I hate web maintenance....

So -- I spend the afternoon sifting stuff from a half a dozen sources, trying to build a couple of pages for one of my big clients, who are entering into a tussle with the legislative bills being proposed. I launch the pages, they look great, I check every link -- and I tell the president that she can check the site. I get home from class, she likes everything, all is well. Then I decide to double-check the .pdfs I posted, because you never know if you've blinked and forgot to make the target "_blank" or something....

And lo and behold, the ONE link that isn't a pdf I made, to the NCES/government site -- the link is ALREADY A COBWEB!

Some days I hate this job. I was suspicious of this industry from the first, and so far nothing has happened to change my mind.

I'm dreaming of Macs....
