Banking is Not for Environmentalists

Just finished up a PIB (Public Information Book) for a client we are currently working with. It contains 10-k's, 10-q's, Investor Reports, Equity Research Reports, etc. The whole document is probably 150 pages total. I print it out and bring it to my MD, but he complains that the footer needs to contain page number and date. I fix the footer and then reprint. But, he also wants the footer font downsized. Reprint the full 150 pages again.

Went through 450 color pages in about 10 minutes. Probably a real $40 in printing costs right there, haha. Anyone else ever have an experience like this?

I've printed out hundreds of pages for multiple people who have gone on to never read the shit, often going in to calls w/out having read shit. Good times.
