Drafts Back in Time

["Amber Young" <ayoung -at- pridemobility -dot- com>]

Do you all have any tips/tricks for getting your drafts back on time from
the (way too) many people who have to edit them?  This is a real problem in
this company.  It takes me maybe a week to write a manual and a month to get
it back from all the departments who need to sign off on it.  SOP requires
that they have it no more than a week, but no matter how much I nag, beg,
threaten, offer to drive to their building to pick up the edits, or hold
their hands through the process, I almost never meet deadlines because of
them.  I seriously think that these people (engineers, legal department,
project managers, and technical service personnel) think that reviewing
documents is nothing but a big pain in the a$$.  My boss hasn't been very
successful in getting my documents back for me either.  What do I have to
do?  Show my boobs?  HeeHee
