Someone's just sent an email saying that some pieces I cut for them for a job three weeks ago are flawed — a material problem rather than my own incompetence. For once.
This happened on a previous, exact-same job, to which my culpability in not noticing the material problem was evident, so I took the hit and re-made the affected pieces.
With this second job, the material was good, and I checked each and every piece before I sent them out. I then contacted him, twice, to enquire as to the quality, to which he said "all the ones I've used so far are fine!".
And yet here we are, and frankly I'm fucked if I'm doing more for free for him. How do I know he's not mixed up the duds from the first batch, either intentionally or unintentionally? He's a pro guy. but.. wtf didn't he go through them three weeks ago?
I fucking hate my job sometimes. Often.
.
I'll end up re-doing them for free, just to keep the peace.

- Cool story br..zzzzzzdetritus
- Take photos of them before they're sent, also once wrapped, and also once boxed maybe?kona
- Perhaps. I shouldn't have to — this is the first time in many years of doing this I've had this problem. Also, there are many pieces — photoing would take ages!detritus
