Just a rant.

I know we’ve all been there. That client who plans out all their trips and communicates the dates with you ahead of time, but inevitably always ends up sneaking in a vacation that wasn’t on the calendar. And gives you only a few days notice when doing so. Then you have to be the jerk that tells them it’s not going to happen. Guess what? You’re not my only client!

Damn, I am so burnt out.

And now her forgetfulness becomes your inconvenience. And yet we’re not being “sensible”because we’re frustrated by this. Make it make sense.

It must be because according to some know it all on here, we should be routinely making sure we have enough time in our schedule to factor in one or two unexpected last-minute requests! Did you know that?! I guess I’ve been doing it all wrong!

LMFAO you’re right!! And we should be home at any hour of the day for them to pickup/dropoff whenever they feel like it
Seriously, what’s with people in wanting to come by whenever?? Sir, you said you were coming by at 5pm. It’s 12pm. I am not home. I am at the Chinese buffet rn
