Cheat day

Large corporation

After finishing the baekban discussion, I went to the duck restaurant I’ve been frequenting lately.

Duck meat is so delicious that it can’t even be compared to chicken, specifically chicken breast, and is cherished as a valuable source of protein.

Baek Woo-jin looked at the raw duck breast starting to sizzle on the grill, smiling brightly.

It seems you’re really happy to have won your first victory in the debate.

At times like this, you need to give them a little boost.

“Oh, you’re stopping me there.”

“Were you deceived?”

“What?”

“Ureki.” Did you think I wouldn’t know?

Now that I think about it, it seems they deliberately didn’t mention the Uregi.

I anticipated that I would call the flounder “trash” and prepared a counterattack.

I definitely didn’t think they would go so far as to prepare such a trap.

“I totally got fooled.”

I flipped the meat with a slight smile.

“I’m going to eat a lot today.” Brace yourself.

“Okay.” Eat a lot.

Baek Woo-jin pushed the perfectly roasted duck meat towards his direction.

He wrapped the lettuce while shaking his upper body left and right.

“My eyes after eating duck are wide open.” My brother bought me a duck, honeyDUCK.

I was thrilled. I’m so excited.

Baek Woo-jin wrapped lettuce while rapping poorly.

“Hmm~”

You eat well.

“Come here and look at my knee, it’s all hairy DUCK.” Go over there and pay, Chan-young, you duck.

As expected, chives and garlic are the perfect match for roasted duck.

“Chan-yong, who was slandering and plotting, is an evil DUCK.” I eat naturally like a duck because I uphold justice. Okay. Notification settings. “Mandatory for Nine DUCK.”

Listening to it, the rhythm is quite Dunki DUCK Bang, thud, bang. DUCK Bang, thud, bang.

The ivory-colored duck skin is high in calories, but I can’t give it up.

“It sounds messy. Woojin.

“Yes. Don’t stop me. Today, I’m going to wipe this place out.”

Baek Woo-jin replied while diligently wrapping the ssam. It’s nice to see you eating well.

“Whatever.” No, did you set up the corporation with executives when you created it?

“Yeah.”

Baek Woo-jin nodded.

“Why? “Should I create a corporation?”

“There are also tax issues.” It seems like running things alone is gradually becoming tough. Next month, we have to start filming for our show, right?

As the side dish store grew, it became overwhelming to handle everything alone.

I finished all the editing work I was doing on the side, but I’m so busy editing my own broadcasts and preparing broadcast content that I can’t even rest easy for a day.

Reading and responding to work-related messages like advertisements, collaborations, and lectures, I really don’t even know how the days are passing by these days.

In the meantime, starting next month, I’ll be filming “Baekban Ttara” with PD Park Sang-cheol, so this is my limit.

You need to establish a company and hire employees.

Whether it’s editing, content planning, or miscellaneous tasks, I need someone to handle them for me.

Right. It’s hard to handle it all by yourself.

Baek Woo-jin nodded.

Since I’ve already experienced this situation, I can give you various pieces of advice.

“Is it better to have an executive?” You can even establish a corporation by yourself.

“I can make it, but I need an investigator.” You should entrust it to an executive or a notary lawyer instead of a shareholder, but hiring a lawyer costs a lot of money.

“How much?”

“When I looked into it, it was around 800,000 to 1,000,000 won.”

“Mm.”

“Is it because there isn’t anyone trustworthy?”

“Right.” It’s not like I have anyone to work with.

“It’s best to ask your mother.” I also made it with my parents at first.

Indeed, it is.

You can’t just appoint a complete stranger to an executive position.

It’s more reassuring to appoint family members as executives.

“But, bro, don’t you think it would be a bit easier if we set up a corporation?” No.

“Why?”

“The hardest thing in the world is dealing with people.” Honestly, how can you tell if someone will do a good job just by looking at their resume, cover letter, and interview?

That’s true.

A person’s abilities are hard to know unless you experience them firsthand.

“Besides, there are people who do their job well but just don’t click with you.”

“Right.”

Also, if you like someone, you have to give them a good salary. Honestly, even if I can pay the minimum wage, I don’t want to work with someone who doesn’t do their job properly.

“Right.”

“I’m also increasing the annual salary every year to keep the people we have now.” They also give a lot of vacation time.

I think I understand now why Baek Woo-jin tried so hard to stop me when I said I was quitting the editing freelance job.

Now that I’m in that position, working with new people isn’t as easy as it sounds.

“What should I do?”

“First impressions are important during the interview.” We need to check if they have practical experience. Since it’s just the beginning, I think it’s better to team up with someone who has some experience.

There can’t possibly be someone like that around.

“How about you?”

I’m Ji-hye. We’re college peers, after all. Ji-hye brought along a close junior with her. But it drove me crazy because they started teaching from the beginning. I hired someone because I was busy, but now I’m even busier because of the training.

I don’t have time for that right now.

“It might be different for everyone, but how long do you think it will take?”

“Usually, it takes about a year to settle in, right?” But you go there for a year, right? Even someone who wasn’t like that gradually started to do things half-heartedly. Since I know almost everything, there are also times when I get into trouble. 어휴. “Seriously, just thinking about that guy still makes me furious.”

Baek Woo-jin chewed the ssam noisily.

“Ha. It’s not easy.

Baek Woo-jin, his mouth full of food, just nodded.

“I’d rather look for a place like a carrot.”

“Hmm?” Ugh.

“Okay.” I don’t think I’ll do it with Hongdangmu, but I was wondering if there’s a place that does similar work. When I asked Jiseung-hyung, he said it wasn’t a tomato. They say they are completely focused on content creation there.

“Hmm.” Ahem.”

The role I desperately need right now is management.

I need a company that can take care of incoming calls, coordinate schedules, research materials for the broadcast, and manage the channel so that I can fully focus on the broadcast.

Trying to make it myself is daunting since I’ve never done it before.

When I looked for companies providing similar services, only Hongdangmu was on a large scale.

There are no options.

If Mukji had continued at Hongdangmu Entertainment, I wouldn’t have to be worried about this, and it’s really a shame.

“……mature kimchi.”

As expected, a true food connoisseur. Boss, do you have any aged kimchi?

“Yes. Shall I bring it to you?

“Yes. Thank you.

I don’t know many people who do this kind of work, no, I only know one person who does, but I’m sure.

If it’s that person, they will manage the side dish store excellently.

When I took out my smartphone, it was already 8 PM. It’s a bit late to contact, but I’m in a hurry.

It’s already been a month since Mukji left Hongdangmu Entertainment, and there’s no way other companies would turn down such talent.

“Tsk.”

They’ve probably already gotten a job at another company.

Thinking about it, I wonder if I could match the salary of someone who worked at a large corporation.

“No.” If you work at another company, you might be able to do management tasks there.

There’s no harm in contacting them.

“Ugh.”

Baek Woo-jin shouted, and when he looked up, he was staring at the floor with a bewildered expression.

Following the gaze, I turned my head and saw a piece of duck meat on the floor.

It looks like I spilled it while wrapping the ssam.

He was nibbling away and ended up dropping a precious piece of meat.

I opened my mouth to commemorate the poor duck meat that fled from the wicked rice cake that devoured three portions of its own kind.

“DUCK.”

“Oh?”

Please provide the text you would like to have translated.

So, I thought of you, sir. I thought you were someone I could trust, even if just for a moment. The conditions are as favorable as possible.

“It won’t work.”

“Match it.” Yes?”

The aged kimchi I met after a month, fortunately, had not found a job yet.

I explained my situation with a happy heart, but I was rejected before I could even make a proposal.

It’s bewildering to be turned down with nothing but a “no.”

I understand what Mr. Banchan-young said. But I can’t handle that task on my own.

“If you could tell me the reason.”

“The reason I was able to handle such tasks was because I was affiliated with a company called Hongdangmu.”

Ah.

Mr. Banchanyong is currently overestimating me. Even though I knew someone in the industry and knew how to handle related tasks, most of it was possible because it was Deputy Manager Hongdangmu from the Planning Support Team.

This person is really honest.

And thoroughly objectifies oneself.

Knowing what he could do and what he couldn’t, he wasn’t so arrogant even though he was part of a large corporation.

I am aware of the environmental differences. I plan to start from the beginning with you, no, with Eunji. I don’t expect you to say what you said when you were at Hongdangmu.

“……Is that so?”

The aged kimchi stared at me intently.

Whether it’s observation or suspicion, I feel like I shouldn’t avoid it, so I forcefully meet their gaze, and they frown.

I wonder what went wrong.

“Why are you looking at me like that?”

“They say if you want to earn trust, you should look someone straight in the eye.”

“It’s burdensome.”

He is really a difficult person to deal with.

Feeling awkward, I drank a decaf Americano, and the aged kimchi revealed its true nature.

“Mr. Banchan’s perspective and the idea of starting a company from the beginning are both burdensome.”

It can’t be helped.

In fact, aside from meeting a few times and staying in touch, she and I have almost no connection.

If someone suddenly appears after a month of no contact and asks you to trust them, it would be awkward even for me.

Still, since it’s a pity, let’s just present the prepared conditions and not insist any further.

It’s rude to try to persuade me any further after saying this much.

“Please, just one more time.”

I took out the prepared salary contract.

“Since you used to work at a big company like Hongdangmu, I don’t know how much your salary was.” It may be woefully inadequate, but for me, it’s the best I can do. I wanted to show you how desperate I am.

Mugunji checked the contract without even lowering her head, only moving her eyes.

I knew from the beginning that he was such a resolute person.

I came to you because I thought you were the only one I could trust and delegate the work to, but it seems my best efforts were woefully inadequate.

As expected, someone who used to work at a large corporation is different.

“Sure.” Excuse me.

“I will do it.”

The moment I was about to get up, the aged kimchi lifted its head.

“Yes?”

I will do it. Boss.

“Yes?”

Mugunji was silent for a moment, then slightly turned her head and asked.

“……CEO?”
