I should be happy...I had my first client yesterday BUT OMG did I want to run!
She asked for gel overlays when she booked...I was prepared for gel overlays.
Firstly...she gave me attitude on the phone...I was close to telling her to get stuffed - I called to confirm her appointment, which she text me asking for 8pm... and I got "er no, i put my kids to bed at 8pm...you can come at 9pm" - I thought, gel overlays, will be out there by 10pm!
Then....Not only did I have to carry a table, my chair, my tool box (i got a JCB tool box and put all my kit in there - just as well!!!) ALL THE WAY to the 4th floor of block appartments because there was no lift! And then carry it all through narrow corridor to her flat.
Got there...whilst she was filling out a record card, i was setting up...she then tells me she wants tips too! Ok, no problem...at 9pm.
I allowed myself hour and a half...this girl had a runny nose...I wanted to walk out. Every 5 minutes with a tissue, up and down, ripping tissue, blowing her nose...i had to constantly wipe her nails, and start again (tissue was getting onto the sticky residue)...didnt finish till 11.50pm!!!!!...And then to my surprise, her partner didnt even help me to take all my stuff to my car...
:cry:
What do you when you get to your client, and she changes her mind about what she wants done, and has a full blown runny nose which she cant control and a partner with no manners?
May be am too much of a princess, but when she said to me she was very happy with the service and will defo call me, I wanted to tell her "no, please dont...this wasnt worth it" - obviously i didnt!
I have another lady tonight, and she sounded lovely on the phone...so fingers crossed it will be a better experience!
