A First.

A client's invoice recently arrived eight days before it was due. These people have never been a more than a day early before—and they were once 30 days late.

Two possible explanations: (1) the person for whom I actually did the work leaned on accounts payable, hard—in recognition for the fact that I worked my ass off for him last month—or (2) the accountant was having an acid flashback when he wrote the check.

I should send flowers to both these guys; really, I should.

1 You're lucky that they will never read this post. How could they? Send them flowers by email--the pixelated variety. And the words "Thanks for your prompt payment!" "It keeps future costs down for everybody!" Avoid saying-- It's getting a lot harder(hence more costly) to put a contract out on someone with Homeland security these days... or If this is the first time you're seeing this message, it should tell you something.
