Grrrrrrr
OK, so I have a shop I supplied some corsets to. Last week they called me and said they wanted some small sizes. For Monday. So I knock myself out, specially recutting some of my patterns (I specialise in 16+) and almost blow up my sewing machine in my desperation to meet the deadline, which I do.
I then call them to be told that the buyer is not there. Mildly upset.
I am told that they will call me today, first thing in the morning. It's 11am. No phone call. Pretty mad.
Fuck it, I am ebaying them. I have put up one as I actually have the second one finished except for eyelets, which I have run out of. I have to go fetch some for other items, so I can finish it if I get a bid on it AND sell the original. I hate being messed about like this. This is the only place which doesn't pay me up front and this is the second time they have done this, the last time they landed me with a bunch of corsets in sizes 18 - 24 that they decided they didn't need. I sold all but one of them, which I kept for myself, on ebay, but still, it's not fair. I am having to delay orders because of this, and I am being kept hanging around, waiting for a call, when I could be getting on with other things. And they can pay me UP FRONT before I make any more corsets for them.
I'm going to ring them (AGAIN) and see what's going on. If I don't get the answer "Come in and drop them off and collect your cash, Ms McGowan" I am selling the whole clucking lot on ebay.
Size bloody 8 corsets FFS!
However, the cyber fleece is up, let's see how right you are
