    sadly it is not just in this industry that manners have gone out the window, but in general, it appears , sadly having made a mistake the man takes it upon himself to blame this lady for his mistake
    this type of behaviour seems common place now in our country,
    in the celtic tiger period,it was called playing hard ball in business, which in reality was another name for walking over people,
    well, the tigers gone, but the behaviour is not .
    sorry that you are going through this messing, but till we relearn manners i fear it will remain

    they also ring and say oh i seen you last week and you were fantastic can i book apaointment , and then they dont show up

    i just learnt to let them book and dont bother getting ready

    really do think a few men have it out for me, or maybe there pimps of escorts
    quick question Kelly, would it not be better to save their numbers as "Do Not Answer 1, Do Not Answer 2, etc." that way you don't even have to pick up the phone when it rings?

    Either that, or pretend to be Detective [Insertname] from nearest Garda station. Tell the person they have just called the phone of a murder victim and you need to take them in for questioning. Make up a mental story, claim that their phone is being traced etc. etc. Sure if you're not going to get any money out of them at least get a bit of enjoyment at their expense

    IMHO Aoife I think you should take his next booking and when he arrives (late no doubt) have on you best Basque, Stockings, Killer Heals and beautifully made up face. Open the door with your best Irish smile ..........

    and Kick him straight in the nuts!

    There are lots of idiots around - sad to think that a guy gets a thrill out of making a booking he has no intention of keeping. I was once delayed for an appointment with a girl - stuck in traffic - I called and she couldn't have been nicer, saw her later that evening - manners cost so little yet make a huge impact.

    I think many guys like to kid themselves that they are the only one we are going to see that day, so it doesnt matter if they stroll in an hour late.
    If I havent had a call or text to let me know a client is running late, I give him ten mins leeway then give his appointment to someone else.
    I agree with Kelly giving the known timewasters and no-shows a booking. I also just take their booking to humour them then forget about it.
