New mantra
I think I am going to adopt Bad Lady's universal catch phrase for everything work-related:
"It's not my problem."
This seems to get her off the hook for doing everything from a last minute ad (which I do all the time, thank you very much, it's what I am employed to do, as is she) to doing anything she deems as too much work, or that would require her to actually do some independent thinking (e.g. writing her own copy, which she never does).

Sorry to vent, but I hear her on the phone with clients saying her mantra to them, and I think to myself, "Why am I not using that line? It seems to be working well for her."
