Houstonsmartgal...you crack me up! (lol) And, Charles...I'm sorry you had to experience the "lack of experience" with the two providers.

As a provider...that type of behavior is completely unacceptable...and you should have been compensated somehow...imho. Those types of providers make the rest of us look bad...and I think most of the ladies here do not run their business that way.

I always offer some sort of compensation (more time or discount) if I make a mistake or have to cancel an appointment. There have been instances where this is not the case...but those instances are very, very rare...and only if the client is a real jerk...not just because the bell rang early...that's ridiculous.

All you can do is learn from your mistakes. I think most of the ladies, once you are screened, are fine with discussing your particular situation beforehand, and willing to work with you. Good-luck!
