How not to make a booking?

[Rocker123]

That is exactly how I read your post and it was also the same as what was thinking.

I am sure Rocker it was what most people would have taken from your post.

Thanks for that. To be fair to Versace Targeryan, we exchanged a few pms and he didnt mean to imply anything about me in his post. His points are indeed valid.

My Heart goes out to a girl in a situation like that. Strange country .... Doesn't know the language and she cannot even take a booking for herself. If she is just starting off it must be a very frightening and daunting experience. She cannot even sus out a caller to see if he is an ok client. Hopefully she has people around her who will look out for her and teach her some english.

My exact thoughts.... Hopefully she'll gradually learn the basics which will hopefully get her by with regards to making her own appointments.

Personally, I feel ladies that come to Ireland for work purposes, with very little English are extremely brave. It must be very daunting to be working in an industry as such with little or no English.

I saw a new lady and decided to make a booking on my way home.

Hello are you free at 430?

No speak English

Where are you?

No Speak English.

Ok, hmmm. Bye

Bye


Guess I won't be seeing her then. LOL
That's the first time that's happened

She could have Called a friend

You're right Rocker123, I was thinking of going to Brazil and other countries to teach English to female students but do you think my talents are needed more here?

Bet her friend was "busy"

While this might not have been the reason for the negative end to the call, I'd have to agree with the person who said this was a bad choice of words. Just to avoid confusion, I'd never ask if they're "free", but would ask "can I see you at..." or "are you available at...".

Well, regarding the initial post it goes for the guys who make bookings as well and don't speak english...as for the girl i feel really sorry for her...it can be really rough to work in a country where you don't understand the language...i think even for those who speak english very good can be hard at times (when it comes to different accents, etc)

Then she could have asked the audience
Or at least gone 50/50

Agree with you Leigha

It must take great courage, bravery, determination and guts to go to a foreign country where the language is different amongst probably everything else. Hopefully a person in this situation would be helped by kind hearted people. The worst situation would be that they are taken advantage of. This probably happens though
