Krfmaga sweetheart kisses to you ,it is becoming a norm of people booking for a certain slot and they dont pitch up ,no cancelling ,no communication just ghosting you .We as service providers would like to plea with u gentlemen to cancel your bookings if you cant make it so that we dont loose income and also for other gentlemen to occupy the slot and enjoy our services
It's really messed up, I had trouble getting a booking with you the first time and I know it's because you get a lot of bookings but when I saw you post about guys ghosting my blood was boiling... Indirectly there are people who are depriving us for no reason

This has happened 3/4x in a single day for me. It's why I'm hesitant to
book longer dates with new clients, lest they secure that time slot with a deposit.
Unfortunately we as providers can't possibly excuse ourselves from paying hotel booking fees by saying "my clients didn't show up". Completely inconsiderate if you ask me
Wow, I didn't know it happened THAT much. That's insane which actually explains why a lot of WGs just double book

Thank you for this post.
I have a thing about time. My regulars can tell you that I am pedantic when it comes to time. I do not like wasting it. Time is the most valuable asset of all, you can't buy or make more time. Every day you only get 24hrs.
If a first time client does not arrive for his appointment, and does not inform me in due time, i will never accommodate him again,not even if he offers to pay a deposit.
For me it is a red flag as to his upbringing as opposed to education and that is just an absolute no for me.
I don't mind communication when you are a little late or stuck in traffic but don't play games with the time that I allocated to you. I am dressed, manicured, pedicured, makeup is done and I am super excited. And then you ghost me, what the actual f?
Unfortunately some people play games, those are simply just not my people.
I can respect that a lot, time is money even in other industries and when people flake it just ruins things for everyone

Just a whataboutism to think about, clients who have booked and paid for a time AND show up...only to be rushed out because the WG has double booked.
This is very wrong, they should not double book BUT for perspective let's understand why that's happening sometimes. If a lot of people ghost and that expensive hotel needs to be paid for every day you'll end up very tempted

A while ago i put up a thread on where i had to cancel an hour before the booking due to unforeseen circumstances.
Many a WG and punter shitted on me.
I now understand why punters dont bother to cancel.
I don't know how the WGs see it but personally I can respect the fact that you communicated, even if it's at the last minute. At least you said something.

Be it as it may, last year at one instance I did not even have a booking with a particular WG, I merely asked her about her availability for the day, and then indicated that I would get back to her when I was ready to make a booking.
Later in the day I thought it good to be courteous and just let her know I am not going to be able to make a booking. I don't feel that it was even necessary, because once again as stated, I did not make or confirm a booking in the first place.
She nearly bit my head off, and went on a rant about no-shows and time wasters, etc.
And this from a WG that is well known and highly regarded on this site.
I did not want to worsen the situation so I just left it at that, but feel that I wasn't in the wrong, maybe she was having a bad day and I was the lucky recipient of her outburst? Who knows.
I'm sorry about that, and I completely feel like she was ranting about other stuff that was going on in her life. Being a WG is probably quite stressful, I'm not defending her at all here and I think it you had an honest convo she might even be able to openly admit that it was just a bad day.
