vickiespencer Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Are you saying you did the job, but your client did not like it? Or are you saying you failed to get a job that you had an offer on? :thinking: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uk1000 Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 The first one. It was my first job ever and I screw up 😫Just deliver the best work you can next time. Learn from the experience. If you need to train/practice anything you could also do that. You could also ensure the gigs you have active are the ones you are the best at and the offers you send to buyer requests are ones you are the most sure you can do as well as possible (assuming you can still send offers to buyer requests and that the cancellation hasn’t affected that).You could also let future buyers know that you can do revisions if necessary. Try not to get future cancellations so it doesn’t affect your stats and ensure the the buyer isn’t trying to get free work or anything like that.

magicjokerhate Posted August 30, 2018 Author Share Posted August 30, 2018 Ok here’s the update…he was thinking of a cancellation but then he gave me a revision so I can change things nowBut the reason why I was upset/panicking was because I didn’t want a bad review on my first job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magicjokerhate Posted August 30, 2018 Author Share Posted August 30, 2018 Does it affect my on time rate if the order period is over but the revision starts right after? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maitasun Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Does it affect my on time rate if the order period is over but the revision starts right after?If you delivered on time, you are OK. Problems arise when your delivery is late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Google sheets keep crashing and I didn’t have the patienceAnd he was right. Google sheets keep crashing and I didn’t have the patienceOk.So, first of all, I think you should reconsider your delivery time. Set it in such a way that it would take into account possible problems that could arise (such as the one you have described).Second, practice cultivating patience. Without it, you’ll get into a lot of trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excel). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
