Hello, everyone.

This is Enta.

I've been incredibly busy.

I'm just so tired I could fall asleep right now, lol, but I'm still working my butt off on paperwork, cost estimates, and site work.

However, there are times when things don't go as planned here.

 

That also means that, since everyone is busy, there will be delays in getting the materials.

Until just the other day, I was told it would take a week, but when I asked today, they suddenly said, “Oh, it’s two weeks, isn’t it…”

If we focus too much all at once, the manufacturing company won't be able to keep up, right?

Come to think of it, what ever happened to the annual leveling plan that the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism announced a while back??

So, I took a look at the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's website.

Appendix 1 ((Overview) Status of Equalization in Local Governments)

Appendix 2 ((Main Text) Status of Equalization in Local Governments)

 

Seriously, I have absolutely no clue about this "leveling rate" or whatever, lol.

Is it correct to interpret this as meaning that 10% to 20% of the total construction work is being smoothed out?? lol

It sounds like a bureaucratic interpretation, but what’s the reality on the ground??

It's that "all-in-one" plan for the end of the fiscal year, isn't it?

 

Thanks to all this, the materials are running late, and the construction is delayed because of the new coronavirus... Should we just go ahead with it??

Well, in a way, it’s business as usual, but when material delays cause construction delays, there’s really nothing we can do about it, so I hope the material supplier will do their best.

 

How is it, really?

As someone who works, is it better to have a steady pace the whole time, or is it better to have a clear distinction between when you start and when you stop?

I find it easier to stick to a routine, but if I take it easy, I feel like I'll just end up slacking off even more lol

Well, I guess moderation is best.

It’s probably best to keep things balanced while still getting a little busy toward the end of the fiscal year.

 

It’s Saturday today, so I’m leaving the construction site entirely to the Vietnamese workers while I handle cost estimates, redesigns, and internal paperwork...

I'm so grateful to have a job. I'll keep working while crying, but I'm thankful anyway lol.

It is we in the construction industry who can lead Japan—which has been weakened by the new coronavirus—to a strong recovery!

Let’s keep the money flowing, contribute to society, and help Japan get back on its feet!

Let's keep up the good work and not let our busy schedules get the best of us!

 

See you later
