I told a client I would be out of the town for several days on vacation, and mentioned it to him numerous times. Then, I received this text:

Client:  I need you to call me ASAP.

Figuring it was an emergency (and currently hurtling down the freeway), I pulled into the nearest town, scrambled to find a phone (mine had died), and finally got a hold of the client. 

Me: Hi, sorry it took so long to reply, I’m in Manitoba.  What’s up?

Client:  I need you to scan a picture for me when you get back.
