Got The Wrong (Hair) Extension
(My salon has had the weeks before Christmas booked out since way back in March. In mid-November, I take a phone call.)
Caller: “I need a booking to get extensions, a full head of foils, and a cut, for Saturday, the 21st of December.”
Me: “I’m sorry. We don’t have anything for the entire month of December.”
Caller: “Great. So how’s ten in the morning?”
Me: “I’m really sorry. We just don’t have any appointments in December. The next appointment for what you need is on January 30th.”
Caller: “Listen, you stupid little cow. I SAID, the 21st of December, at ten. Grab your little appointment book and book me in with [My Name]. I swear, she’s the only competent one of the lot of you!”
Me: “You do realise I’m [My Name], right?”
