Boiling point

So the client wanted to change the layout for one of the many rooms on a certain level ab he told me his comments over the phone. I confirmed that it was the biggest room which seats 30 and has a fireplace. My colleague sketched 3 options for him and wasted 2 hours of his time only to realize that the client actually wanted to revise the room next to it which sits 100 people and doesn't even have a fireplace!!! Argh. I wonder if it's because my mandarin was so poor that I heard wrong, or was it that he wasn't looking at the plan and simply agreeing to which ever room I guessed it to be? Sigh... Such a silly mistake. I spent 2 hours installing that kickass cad viewer program only to feel worse and unsettled in this hour of the day! I should never have checked this darn email at bedtime, should have just ignored it and gone to bed. I really have someone to blame for writing me emails late at bight or early in the morning. Now after 2 months of that, I have developed a habit of holding on to my phone to sleep. Sigh... Horrible. Feel so bad for my colleague who has to do the work! But I can't really help or cross the line since it isn't my field of work. Sigh... Silly mistake
