My new client keeps adding small, "quick" tasks to the project. We're getting close to a major deadline, and if I don't push back, we're going to miss it. I don't want to damage the relationship, but I can't keep absorbing all this extra work. How do you deal with scope creep without making the client feel like you're being difficult?

Why are you dealing with this and not someone more senior?

Is he going to you straight for these changes or is it going through your lead?

“If you’re keen to add (new scope), we need to remove (agreed scope)”

Tell them their jobs are on the line if they keep delaying the project.
