I don't get it

See her if you want...its your decision and I wish you the best of luck. But I'm tired of the unprofessional behavior exhibited by too many of these young ladies.

Sir, personal issues do in fact come up with everyone, young and old. Providers are human after all. I have had issues arise myself, so you know what I do? I explain the situation to said client and I either cancel, postpone or reschedule. It's never acceptable to string someone along. If you can't give your all, CANCEL THE DATE -DON'T BE GREEDY. A NC/NS is just rude.

I think everyone understands personal issues. What is harder to understand is the NC/NS issue. I sometimes have personal issues that cause me to cancel appointments in my occupation, and when I do, I call and reschedule without leaving my customer hanging. That's just what you do.

Like other posters, I've been on the receiving end of the NCNS stuff; I just don't have the patience to wait for an hour.

Like I said - sometimes it's the little things that separate the providers that earn well from those that don't.

I'm guessing that is probably the case (just bailed on me), but I'm willing to give someone the benefit of the doubt the first time around. I've had crazy sh*t happen to me too, but then again I do try to minimize the impact on everyone else.

What's done is done, I disclosed the incident for others to use as a judgment tool (both providers and customers), not sure what else anyone would expect.

I guess a good lesson to be learned from this is to just stick to the awesome providers you know like Allie Kat (wink).
