My story start with a red bubble over the apple mail client. A new mail from “the god damned woman“

the mail looks like this:

Hi Fat Mouse good morning,
please see attached 2 lay outs for business cards.
Could you please be so kind and convert me those lay outs to be jpgs.
Each business card to be 1 separate jpg.
The size of the business card should be 87mm x 49mm.
Thank you very much
best regards and have a great day !!

Great (i said to myself) this is too easy, nothing special just a black text on white background

I did my job and sent it.

A few minutes after, a new mail:

Hi Fat Mouse

Thank you for the business card

I will need for the backside also a jpg which is empty. Just a white jpg same size and resolution as before.
10xxxx
best regards

WTF!!! I asked her: Are you sure is this what you want?? A white Jpg??

she said:

yes, this is exactly what I need, the backside of the business card

This was the strangest request i have ever seen in my 25 years of life, well i did the white jpg and send it to her, everything was fine no changes required :)

P.S. this is a true story

Did you send it as CMYK or RGB?

haha well, I hope the printer charges her for it even though they probably won't print white on white. Because that's just stupid.
