The reality is that there are many options

Clients and I put myself in this call and browse until we find what we want.

And right now I think economics play a huge part

How about this:
You crack your head to choose between 2 stunners on here. Decide on the one to visit, call to cancel the other so you don't deprive her of business from elsewhere. Manners.

Call again to confirm with your choice. Great!
Drive all the way, arrive outside complex. As you sign entrance, lady seems to have switched off her fone (calls go straight to voicemail)? I didn't give description of car so she wouldn't even know me if we met at gate.

So turned around at the gate, drove back to the office. Shit happens unfortunately

I must admit that it's frustrating to get someone booking you and they never show face on the other hand you have turned down a potential booking.
A guy booked me and promised to bring lunch,he sounded so sure that he's coming and I should keep space open for him,so just to stay positive and not think that anything is wrong with me,in my little confucked mind I believe that the guy is still stuck in a long que at nandos since last month, I have hope that he will make it to the front of the que and finally pay for that promised lunch at nandos then drive to come see me, lol

Like the guys who said they had gone away for business on flight MH370! They shall pop!

My problem with the whole dynamics of no shows is that it drops all the respect one had for a lady or punter in question.

Rather have the lady totally pissed off (by a cancellation call) than not pitch up completely.

@john_Benz pity not everyone is as descent and thoughtful,some people's bad manners are on steroids and their decency is 6 feet under, not everyone is wearing their thinking caps on and some are walking on their brains,nothing can be done*sadface*

[QUOTE;1157047;martinm] I am fastidious about arriving and being on time too at bookings I have made. If something does crop up that means I can't make it,which is very infrequent
,then I will always call or message - it is simply good manners!!

I totally agree mr A! Its just good manners!! Something that alot of people out there dont have!!!!

What the problem is...if they do cancel some cancel 10 minutes before the booking. Or when you phone them and ask are you lost or on your way the clients don't answer.
Or give a excuse that not even his mom would believe.

Please be straight forward like a lot of my clients.
I say I Dont offer FH, or GFE; then have the guts to tell me sorry my girl but I'll rather look and book someone that could offer that today and come and visit you the next time.
Dont let us wait and not taking other calls because you tell us you around the corner or something like Nandos whaha!
