Today was meant to be a half day as I had a mountain of paperwork stocktake orders to do but one of my clients who has 5kids and I always feel sorry for the women who have little time to do anything for themselves so I say yes sure come in even though I am off I’ll make a plan.
Firstly she comes 15min late - no apology’s
Secondly arrived with her 1 year old toddler who in the space of 10minutes has pulled off the lid on one of the retail cleaning items I have stocked . Plus re arranged my magazine stand all over the floor which is fine I understand kids are kids . - but the mom doing nothing is what chipped me off!
Pouring the contents and the mother does nothing ! She tells ME to “just pick him up and bring him to me and you want to mop that up so he doesn’t slip”
What the F”@& I want to scream.
Firstly it’s FOAMING industrial household cleanser so adding water will make my salon floor turn into a nightclub foam party!!!
So she says well then use towels , I’m sure I’ll use my newly laundered towels to mop up half my salon while you sit there !
And don’t help at all. Then proceed to undress your child and expect me to finish your waxing (that is full body waxing ppl not exactly a quick or easy job). So now she can’t turn over cos she has to hold her baby making my job even more difficult as he is wriggling out of her grasp every few mins.
And sticking his foot or hand into the wax and she complains she has wax on her body “but didn’t you already finish the arm isn’t ?”
Yes I did but your kid decided to start job shadowing early and helped !!
So now I have to wipe down this kids feet and hands and mother saying hope that won’t burn , no it’s baby oil it won’t burn!
So I charged her for the item he emptied over my floor and the mother didn’t even apologize she laughed and said oh well it’s a free gym workout for you.
I hate my job sometimes like today ! What I would not do to scream or stab her with a plastic fork I can’t tell you.
But no we have to smile and pretend it’s ok.
So the rest of my half day was spent wringing it towels (I have wrist issues so this is very painful for me to do, and I don’t have a cleaner or staff to clean for me ) and now to get the salon ready for my busy afternoon filled client schedule !
So now my good deed is no longer a thing it’s gone!
I didn’t finish salon orders and thus I had to work another hour after usual salon times to finish stock take and I didnt go to gym .
All because I felt sorry for her and shame it only an hour app. That’s the last blinking time I’m ever going out my way for these ppl!
I’m was really angry I ate 3 creams eggs when I got home and 2 coffees which didn’t help much.
