A lot of subcontractors think, I sign a standard contract, right? So, fine, just a standard contract. But the reality is these standard contracts, they have been edited and updated so many times, they just look like a standard contract. But the reality is they're not. They've changed the terms, they've gone to lawyers, the lawyers have updated the terms to reflect them. They just look like your standard contracts in whatever country you're in.
