How can someone submit a review after not showing up for an appointment, late???
He did not call to say he'd be late. I informed him that I would cancel my personal engagement (for 6:00) to see him at 5:30 instead of the appointment time of 4:30??!
OK, I'm done whining....time to move forward to more positive ventures...more considerate people.
I'm over it.
Thank you, guys for your listening ears. 
I'm wondering if this will help me feel better, considering that support is what I need, not the unhealthy alternative of a good, stiff drink.
A client who I've seen in the past (it's been a couple of years, I recognized his name) booked an appointment one day in advance for today after work. He said he'd be here at 4:30, and I agreed.
Well, at 4:10 today, I got an email from him asking for directions (I didn't see the email until 4:35, when checking to see if he left a contact number, so I could ask where he was).
I just assumed that he knew where I was located, since he didn't ask (we emailed back and forth about 4 times about things).
He left me his cell number in the email asking for directions, so I called it at 4:36, to no avail. Then, I tried again a couple minutes later, and finally texted him on the number.
He did call me, saying that we must have had phone tag issues.
I asked him if he was on his way, and told him that he should have asked directions yesterday, that I assumed he knew where my place was. Well, he knew the general location, cuz he's been here before, so I told him.
But, it was late already, and he was sill at least 30 min. away!!
I had to cancel a personal engagement that was at 6:00 in order to see this client, plus, I turned away two other prospective clients that were interested in seeing me today.
Then, the guy NCNS!!!
I guess he missed out, and I did, too (in more than one way....)
I guess I'm lucky, this doesn't happen very often, but some people have no integrity.
That character quality is one that I uphold. To the end, and wish others did, as well.
Enjoy your weekend, people. Watch out for all those yummy sweets!!
