Never in all my life

Have you ever had a client like this????GRRRRRRR
Never in all my life would I be such an issue to a nice lady in salon.....This one takes the cake like my crazy ebayer remember her ::::dreams of chunking bottles a her head::: anyway
This smartass comes in the morning and right away by her stance I know this new client is going to be a brand new pain! First off she gives me hard time filling out a client as if I was making sign away her life.......I give her a tour of the salon....then she starts with her grilling of questions as if she was the tanning nazi! What company do you order your bulbs from? The last place I tanned at got theirs from such and such...I go "its not the company its the type of bulbs that make the difference"....What is the wattage on each bed?....How many hours on each bed......I go "we change them 300 hours earlier then suppose to so you never have to worry if their hot or not!" Thats not the question I asked? she says in harsh tone....
Finally I get through this...and she asks about lotions......I put on my best face and start going over my favorites....She goes my other salon gave me them at an employee price as they way marked them up.... By this point I am annoyed.... I go were you an employee there?
She goes no....I go well they weren't smart at business..... She goes call the owner and ask if he can do it for me......So I decide to humor her as I realize I forgot to tell her that I was the owner....I pick up the salon phone and call my cell phone sitting on the desk....RING RING
she looks at the phone and goes "UH you called yourself!" I go I know but you said to call the owner::a second of silence:: now what package were you interested in?" She stares "your to young" so I grab out my license and point to my operating permit........
"My prices are set I run discounts occassionally, My beds are always hot and I have a very nice, extremely clean salon run by an amazing staff I don't know what else to tell you...." Ohh joy we must have passed she bought 2 months unlimited outta be fun.....

Last grip I put a diet coke in the freezer and it imploded.. exploded... whatever you call soda all over my ice creams and popsicles it did........Is it lunch time yet??

Re: Never in all my life

I love those people...We get them occasionally. I have in the past told one just to leave and if the other place was offering you what you claim they offered, have at it. Good Day miss.... LOL1

I'd rather suck up the $50 you were going to spend here and not have to deal with you for a full month....

Re: Never in all my life

Do you always use the term hot when you refer to your beds and lamps?

Re: Never in all my life

I had a lady tell one of my employees that she used to own a salon, that is how she knows that the lamps in the bed she was just in were old. Um, they had less than 100 hours on them. *******. I hate people like that.

Re: Never in all my life

One of my best clients is an ex salon owner and she always gives my kudos on how great the salon always looks.....One of my worst is an x employee of another salon she acts like a Miss Know it all.....I guess thats why shes an x employee...
So When you think about slapping them with a packet re-read this and I have a feeling you will step away from the packet! LOL I think I enjoy the opportunity to be wittier then she was
