Reflections of a stormy petrel

Ever had to translate and type more than 10,000 words in a few hours?

Well, how about: ever had to translate and type more than 10,000 words in a few hours when your employer is going mad (and letting you know it) because her ultimate employer is an Italian government minister who needs it NOW for something international?

It my own stupid fault I was late, too. Which did not make my nevers and exhaustion any better. I hope to God they don't examine closely what I typed, because I was producing a typo every ten seconds.
