Oy, what a day! I hurt almost everywhere..but mostly my back and feet. I'm exhausted, to the point of barely remembering the drive home. But mostly, I'm confused and saddened at what I think is losing a good client. This lady had been with me, off and on, for about 7 years. Today, I did an amazing job on color, highlights and a cut. She was almost asleep through all of it.....she's dealing with a progressively disabled husband, so that's not unusual. (Have I mentioned that the majority of the clients at my salon are from Sun City, a retirement community?) So, after an hour and a half of being with her, she's checking out, and she says, "I have something I need to talk to you about." She then pulls out a credit card statement from last month, shows me a *highlighted* line for a charge with me on Oct. 22. I use a credit card processing service that runs from my phone, and is ultra-secure. So, I check my online scheduling service, and sure enough, find that she was in on Oct. 20. I ask what the problem is, and she tells me that she hasn't been in since the end of September. "I keep a calendar, and the appointment wasn't on it, so this wasn't me." I explain that I don't have access to her card number unless I have it physically, and it's in her sight at all times. She insists that even though I had her appointment and her charge on record, that she hasn't been in since September. I explain again that I can't have charged her card without her physical presence, and she insists that it wasn't her. Dementia? Short-term memory loss? Evil intent? I don't know, but she wrote a check for today's service, (no tip) in spite of the fact that she was elated with the results, and leaves. I suspect that she will (or has) put a stop payment on the check. And that she won't be back. She accused me of STEALING , y'all! This is a very upsetting turn of events, and after the tiring day, not what I need. I'm very glad I'm not a stress eater. To the contrary, I'm a stress faster. Appetite is nil, wanting food is nil. All I want to do is drink myself into oblivion, and curl up in a little ball. Some days, I just hate people. Neighbors' dogs are fed and in for the night, cats are fed and cuddled, and first rum-n-coke is in the belly. The night is shaping up. Thanks for letting me vent. Wishing you all a better tomorrow. ~Kes
