Been reading the comments on
how to be a bad client, and I ask myself the question: How are we a bad client? And to who’s standards.
We are all humans, and we all have bad habits just because everyone is doing it, does that mean we have to do it too ?
It’s like driving a car: not putting your flasher to turn, or leaving your flasher on for 10km, or doing rolling stops instead of full stops or cutting people off, or at a green light and not moving because you want to turn and you forgot to put your flasher till some’s honks you and you either give him the finger or put on your flasher or even worst, driving 175km on HWY 20 and not getting caught, okay that was me, late for lunch, sorry.
We all have inherited bad habits over the years, that being said, we as clients get confronted by
- fake pictures
- fake age or outdated 20 year old pictures
- Last year she was 59, all of a sudden she is 52 years old
- services that are promised, but never happen!
- Arriving on time even at rush hour, and making you wait 20 minutes in your car like an idiot.
- Paying for an hour, and all finished in 22 minutes, including a shower
- Forgot to tell you, she has 6 cats or that her boyfriend is their watching TV or something else.
- She promises a high end condo, when its actually a dump apartment with a filthy bathroom.
- And the list goes ON and ON.
So maybe some of us are so tired of receiving bad services or disappointing services, that without noticing we become bad customers, to bad service received in the past.
I am only generalizing, and there are some good providers that it be Indy’s or agencies. But there is a lot more bad providers than good providers out there, in my opinion.
We can all micros argue every point, and I agree there are some real bad customers out there as well:
- No respects for SP’s
- Bad hygiene, including bad breath.
- Cancel last minute or never show up and advising.
- Asking for more than a SP is willing to provide
- And total morons!
- And more
So, the question was how to be a bad customer, it’s a two-way street, if we got good service to start or were a good customer, the question would not be out there.
My 2 cents!
