How long would be reasonable expectation for something simple asked to be done such as pasting in a meta tag list to add on to the current list?

Reason I ask is because I sent a list to our "media" people and almost a week later this seemingly simple task is not completed...so should I send a mildly upset email to them or wait further? Seems to me to be a 10 minute job at the very least or am I wrong in this assumption?

 

they are either overswamped or lazy or forgot
this is me coming from governemnt workers but i would inquire a status update (not upset) and ask how long it will take

 

Better get the brick ready.

 

Yeah I am not impressed with this company so far.

 

heh, that's pretty normal

send them a friendly reminder.

 

is this in house techs or outsourced?

 

should have been done by now. i would send a email asking for a eta

 

Outsource

so far deliverables are a few months behind and their "one stop media solutions" end with anything outside of web based advertising and programming. So any print media is out of the question and it has caused some hassle.

I keep saying get deliverables and can em but we still wait on deliveables and can't access backside until then for some reason.

 

agreed

somethign to the effect of

"I'm looking for an ETA on XXX task that I emailed about on XXX day blah blah"

make sure you mention waht day you sent it on so they know how long its been

 

and cc your supervisor?
