I don't give guys a 2nd chance to steal from me. In effect thats what a no-show does. I am robbed of another client's income.
That is so true..it is thievery on a totally different scale..
In previous week I had said no to two potential clients that wanted a specific time slot. Because I was waiting for a client that made appointment day before for that time slot and confirmed early the morning that he is still coming. Only for him to not show or even send a text or call to cancel.. ( I always wonder did they end up in a accident maybe or get sick... Foolishly trying to excuse their bad manners) only to be called again by same guy the day after with a * can I see you now I couldn't make it yesterday but have time now."
Kindly told him that I work on appointments and can't accommodate him as I was in fact waiting for a client. He then proceeded to tell me "you don't have to be like that, I will be in and out in 15 minutes. Can't you move other client for 20 minutes later"
Told him no. And that I have to go my phone is ringing ( which was a lie).. As I was about to totally loose my cool.. I have never come across such a selfish arrogant guy ever before. Since then I have blocked his number. I really don't want him to ever contact me again.
To those guys that make the effort and call to cancel thank you. Because of one such gentleman yesterday that cancelled because his wife finished at doctors long before he hoped she would, I have managed to accommodate another client and to fill the time slot that was allocated to him.
I will never charge cancelation fees even when you at my door already and want to leave. I have never been comfortable with that idea. But am most certainly not gonna be putting up with selfish arrogance like the guy mentioned above.
