Hi Peeps,
I know I haven't been on here in ages, too much to go into at the moment, it's been a bit tough, business is still going well though so I'm at least happy about that.
I have a nutter for a client, not trying to be mean or anything but I have been warned on a number of occassions about his woman. She's had 3 nervous break downs and her cheques bounce. I was introduced to her as a beauty therapist and I corrected my client in saying that I am a nail technician. This nutter then asked me at the same time to fit her in for a facial, she said I know you don't do them but can you make a plan, I told her I used to offer them back in South Africa but dont anymore, she begged me and being stupid I agreed :grr:
Last week sunday morning I get a call from her to say she is feeling very anxious and can I come over to do her a massage and I said to her that I do not offer massage and I do not work on sundays, then she said to me, can I come over a little later on to do her facial instead of wednesday, so I repeated that I do not work on a sunday. She said okay can she change her appt. to monday and I agreed. On monday I had a delivery problem so I had to postpone her appointment till friday as wedneday was booked up.
So here I am, I don't want to go to this client today because her last cheque(for her manicure of £10.00) bounced but she doesn't know as I took her card details down and the bank went with those. I am very uneasy around her and I don't want to have to sound like a liar and say I agreed to a facial when in fact I don't do them. So this morning I phoned her up and came up with something .... told her I would need cash from her today as it is december and I've asked all my cheque ladies to pay me in cash as it is christmas. She said she wouldn't be able to pay me in cash which is only £15.00 so I ended the call. I was really hoping she'd cancel with me but she didn't!!!
WHAT DO I DO NOW, I'VE DUG MYSELF A REALLY BIG HOLE!!!!
