Usually Mar 9

Almost always a client portal, occasionally e-mail. Years ago it was mostly e-mail and sometimes a client portal, but I can't recall ever receiving them in any other way.

Email Mar 9

Almost all is received via email, except for two clients where I have to download the files from their portals after being notified by email. Delivering is another matter as sworn translations are sent by snail mail or delivered in person.

It's frustrating Mar 9

Some of them are frequently dumping everything inside emails. Also, PO numbers and project numbers are always confusing or too long. This translation business is starting to suck big time.
