Wow, a request for corrections on the final draft!? … This has happened here before, hasn’t it? I really put a lot of burden on the designer for this correction. But it’s really cute… Nyaa. Well, work work, ka-ta ka-ta. I feel like this might be a bit too congested… Ah, I just got an email from the place I delivered to the other day. Are they stretching something? Narita-san! Nyaa. Hmm… Is it a redo after it was decided?

Thank you for your continuing support. Regarding the advertisement design for Instagram that was finalized the other day, there are three points I would like to request corrections on… I’m truly sorry for consulting you during this busy time. After submitting it as the final draft to the higher-ups, it came back with correction requests that just couldn’t be avoided. Here are the three points. I would appreciate it if you could review them.
Send back the attachment with the list of correction fees.

Mr. Kagawa, I will not ask you for work in the future, okay?
It’s okay until Monday!
What will happen next?
>>3
Drink Mohican and barrel-aged sparkling wine.
I often think about whether I can somehow cut ties with cases that are too bad.
Once it’s delivered, there’s nothing else to say other than send more money.
We can only calmly request for more money.
It’s a final draft, but I got scolded for bringing it up, so please handle the corrections on your end.
I wonder what purpose there is in existing like this.
>>9
If this happens, I might end up saying, “Can’t I talk directly to your boss?”
If it’s a client we regularly take care of, there are times when we can consider it mutual.
It doesn’t seem like that’s the kind of person they are…
If we impose a delay in the delivery and additional revision fees, they will probably adjust things on their end…
Uncontrolled internal situation on their side!
There’s probably no company that does this for free, right?
>>13
But there are many companies that will do it for free, right?
>>14
I guess they think it’s a win if they get through… Please, just die…
>>24
A life hack to try asking, “Please correct this!” without touching on the topic of fees.
What a finalized draft is…
Why did you deliver it when the boss’s review isn’t finished yet?
At the timing when things are about to settle.
There are many people who try to claim credit for something by jumping in at the last moment.
If the opponent is not a monster, it’s possible to go straight ahead.
Isn’t it exactly prohibited by the Subcontract Act to keep forcing corrections like that…?
Hmm…
If you do it too much, you’ll seriously get… dealt with.
Requesting subcontractors to redo designs 24,000 times for free – a nationwide first recommendation to a major printing company for violating the Subcontracting Law.

Is it going to be difficult to go back and request payment because it’s become too normalized, like 24,000 times…?
I have confirmed it!
Those who say they can win if they sue often have no risk because they aren’t likely to be sued themselves.
Humans are like that, aren’t they?
>>28
You only write in one go, don’t you?
Follow my intentions more closely.
Mohican really knows how to maintain a friendship with Kawakawa.
I heard that the client style is to gauge the other person’s situation while searching for the line of what can be pushed to the limit, as when you’re weak enough that you can’t complain or resist, you won’t have any dissatisfaction.
Completion work compensation reserve
A certain politician’s office takes on these projects with a tight deadline, causing everyone involved in the case to become mentally distressed and quit.
>>35
Damn it~
>>35
Isn’t it a necessary evil to survive and grow into a renowned designer?
>>51
It has nothing to do with whether you grow or not.
Rather, I feel like I might achieve greater success after getting sick and quitting.
>>60
Experiencing something like that at least once leads to growth.
>>69
What are you, garbage?
I seriously feel like all the politicians are just human trash.
On the contrary, when politicians are involved, it goes from request to cancellation.
I’ll pay the cancellation fee. I understand, and I’m moved by that spirit, so it seems there might be a way to do it as a volunteer.
There are guys who say it’s a retake but are secretly pocketing the rejected ones as differences.
I kindly request that you die as soon as possible.
Can I ignore that email?
If you think the other person is also caught in a dilemma, then be even stronger in your stance and push back.
>>40
There are definitely instances where people are sending emails just to say, “The contractor said it can’t be done for free!”
If we set a precedent, things could get pretty bad… I will firmly refuse…
At the last minute, when the boss says something, it’s a situation that would make the person in charge think, “What a mess…”
There are people who think that their job is to point things out and just come up with criticisms for the sake of it…
>>45
Sometimes you deliberately leave imperfections when submitting because you absolutely want to make changes to yourself.
I don’t care about the other person’s circumstances; I just don’t have the luxury to consider that.
Political cases tend to have a high risk, right?
>>47
I understand…
A long time ago, my dad, who was a city hall employee, accompanied a study trip for legislators.
Even if money is taken from your wallet, you can’t complain, so it was advised to divide the money into smaller amounts and keep it that way, as requested by all the companions.
>>58
Isn’t he just a thief?
>>58
I don’t really understand because it is too far removed from the image I have of a politician.
Is that how politicians usually are…?
>>63
There were politicians asking for gifts from the disaster-stricken area, right?
An image of a lot of them.
>>63
It’s so petty…
If you’re a politician, I want you to make a big profit through collusion like a politician should.
If you can refuse or charge extra fees, you should certainly do so, but it seems that in small businesses, if you upset someone and get cut off, it can be really tough.
I’ve seen someone who insists “the previous person did it, right?” (they didn’t) and pushes through with that.
>>49
There are people who try to push things that aren’t in the contract by saying things like, “Everyone is doing it, right?” or “Isn’t this normal?”
Well, if it’s a job worth millions, I’ll show it to my boss first, or hold onto someone who has decision-making power on this side.
It’s usually really hard to deal with.
Should I show it to my boss after delivering it?
What the heck is that?
>>53
I feel a nuance that it’s even above my direct supervisor since it’s the upper management.
I guess we have no choice but to ignore it since it’s the final draft.
First, the leaders and directors should handle the contracts properly.
In the early days of starting illustration work, there were times when, for cheap illustration jobs, they would say to do free corrections after the completion…
People with high rewards tend to be more courteous in their responses.
>>61
Well, if you’re not doing it properly, there’s no way you’re making a profit.
>>61
Can’t you push back against that?
I work in a job related to computers, but it’s common to be asked to change the data being referenced on the screen on-site.
We have come to an agreement by having the other party bill us slightly more than the estimated amount we provided for that work.
We are also frustrated with the number of revisions since receiving the final approval notification.
Since it’s the customer who is saying it, I can’t speak firmly, and the customer is aware of this. When I bring up additional charges or late-night fees, they immediately hint at switching to a competing company.
Of course, it’s not something that can be easily changed once an order is placed, but that’s why the responsibility of the person in charge is significant when it comes to changing an order, so there’s no choice but to accept it.
I wish they would at least collect the late-night fee that was agreed upon in the contract.
Huh? Did you say that responding at midnight is the site’s arbitrary decision?
There are countless places where the subcontracting law is not functioning.
Legislative matters often come with cases of harassment as well.
When scum becomes a politician or takes a position like a king in politics, everyone tends to become scum at a level that is generally impressive.
In cases like this, it’s almost guaranteed that it won’t be resolved in just one retake, which is incredibly frustrating.

Is that really all it takes to get to that point?
Everyone involved should be fired.
Politicians face huge bribes and temptations from outside, making it unbearable for even the most upright individuals.
Those who are originally rich and remain unfazed by money are the ones who are unshakeable.
I guess I’ll become a politician and bully the anonymous too…
It gives the impression that staff in government ministries or offices, especially those older than middle age, do not see contractors as human beings, although younger people may not feel the same way.
Have you ever had someone wave their hand like “shoo shoo” when they wanted to drive you away?
>>79
You might as well just shout at them.
>>79
It’s quite top-down, you know.
Just because my relative was an important person in the past, I’m treated with such high regard.
Design and illustrations can be tough because there’s no definitive right answer for deliverables.
And the person in charge of orders is usually someone within the company who has no decision-making authority.
Both the requester and the recipient should not become too bold; if things become too relaxed, it’s no good.
If a correction request comes in, I’ll make the changes, but I’ll quietly add the correction costs when applying for expenses.
Growth is something that is said by those who have faced insurmountable challenges, not by those who impose those challenges.
In the construction industry, civil servants really suck.
There were some politicians who kept asking me to show corrections for each page of a dozens-page pamphlet and send the revisions by this evening…
I wonder if there could be a law that allows you to punch a business partner who contacts you on time and asks to take care of things today without facing any consequences.
If it’s this fee, I’ll say that revisions are limited to ◯ times at the beginning.
If you pay for the corrections, it’s better.
If that’s the case and it has become the final draft, then issue the invoice at that point.
There are too many big companies that don’t understand the added time costs because there are people who accept unreasonable demands and work like slaves, which makes me want to kill them.
And the individual designers and small printing companies that push themselves to take on work because it’s for a job won’t disappear…
There are quite a few local politicians who call themselves “sensei,” and their egos are inflated to the extent that it’s like their noses have grown around the Earth.
I really don’t want to deal with work related to public servants because it’s a hassle.
Thank you for your continued support.
I think it would be good if the upper management could look up the meaning of the decision in a dictionary.
Thank you in advance.
