Well, begrudgingly is better than a no. 🙂

Begrudgingly. I still have the client so that’s a good thing. 😉

I hope they agreed to that without question, Cathy. Wow. What a situation to be in! How did it end? Well, I hope?

I interviewed each SME. One was particularly challenging. Even with me sending very specific questions before the interview and prompting during the call, her responses were weak at best. I followed up with a quick outline of her “points” and she signed off on them. Then the company fired her.

I am not kidding. Her section of the ebook had to be redone after a total change in direction and interview with another SME. I explained the extra work was outside the scope and there would be an added change for the change in scope.
