I've been out of the hobby for a while so I thought I'd ease back in with a trusted favourite, Marie/Vera, since I saw that she was advertising again. I called her yesterday from the car and she answered right way so I thought it was going to be my lucky day!
I told her my name and that I was sorry that I hadn't seen her in way too long and asked her if she had any time that afternoon. She told me she was free right then so I said I'd head her way. She then told me that she was now in a different location and I laughed as I was heading to her old place as it had never occurred to me to ask if she'd moved. I then asked her for the address and then her attitude changed. She told me that she wasn't taking any new customers and that she was sorry but "I don't remember you Steve" and then hung up on me before I could say "Actually it's Dave..."
I was pretty disappointed but I thought I'd pass it on to you guys that she seems skittish these days so if you're new and you call her, for God's sake don't tell her your name is Steve!
