I'm so hurt....just need to get this off my chest. I met with a Mum the other evening - I'm trying to fill a space in my daycare. The meeting went well, and I was hopeful that she would place her son in my care. This A.M. I got a nasty e-mail from her. My crime ? She noticed that my ad was still running on Kijiji. She will certainly NOT be placing her son in my care. (insert indignant cyber sniff here) When I tried phoning her to explain my position, it went straight to voice mail. I left a message explaining that until a parent signs a contract with me committing to placing their child in my care, I have to keep my ads up. It's a business decision and in no way indicates that I did not like them or their child. She also expressed (in her e-mail) a great deal of anger over the fact that I had a different headline for my ad. Again, I use two or three different ads since I find if you have the same ad, word for word month after month it gets stale. I told her that given that my name and contact information are all the same, clearly I am not trying to misrepresent myself. I am so frustrated that this would get under my skin so badly - the meeting went well and her son would have been a great fit. For her to accuse me of duplicity hurts so much.....
