Now how in the world did this one particular parent get a note saying I was closed all last week, but everyone else showed up?????

I'm sorry NO PAY NO STAY....I told her if she can bring me the note she wouldn't have to pay being that I don't charge if I choose to close and he could come back. well guess what, she gets home and can't find the note!!!

I know she couldn't because there was no note!!! Good try though dcm!!!

I'm confused ? You were closed or she just said you were because she didn't come all week?

allsmiles 09:27 AM 03-19-2013

are you SERIOUS???
is she really that slow or really that manipulative?? WOW!!!

I wasn't closed. She said that she got a note out of the dcks bag saying that I would be closed last week.

Um seriously? How could a parent be so stupid to think YOU would be so stupid and fall for such a thing??? I'd be making sure I got paid for last week and then terminate. Also, I recommend getting paid in advance to avoid these types of situations.

Yes I am so serious!! She told me the note was on her dresser and she would bring it right back. Well she didn't come back, she called to let me know that she must have thrown the note away!

I've made up my mind that after I get paid for last week, this week, plus all late charges she will get termed! The nerve of her and to top it off she went and got a $150 hair extensions

who does that??????/

LOL!!! Parents never cease to amaze me. Did she think you wouldn't remember whether you sent a note home or not?

"Oh sorry DCM I just forgot about the week of vacation I just said. All of the relaxation must have clouded my memory. Of course you don't have to pay, how silly of me!"

You must have sat there completely baffled.

CedarCreek 10:58 AM 03-19-2013

I'm speechless.

I'm sure she was hoping I didn't!

Luna 11:05 AM 03-19-2013

So not only did all those other families show up after you told them you were closed, but you forgot you were closed? I think you do need a vacation

Unbelievable!

This made me giggle. I think I have heard just about everything. So did she pay and come back?

I would have had a hard time being professional and not using the word "um" due to being so stunned.

You should send out an e-mail thanking her for giving you proper notice for her family's vacation next week and still remembering to pay for her child's spot. LOL. I am kidding.

No she hasn't came back, she called and asked if she could pay it Friday. I'm sure she's not going to pay, but I have someone lined up to fill his spot anyway.

I'm assuming since she is a parent, she must be an adult. Grow up! Amazing. I would term for sure.

She does with last weeks tuition. Have her pay a week ahead and tell her no pay no stay. Nicely of course

I don't know which smiley to pick for this occasion. What did you say to her?

This is for you

Give her a dead line to pay you and be up to date and tell her she can either pay a week ahead or find other care, your all done chasing your money-

Thank you!! I gave her until this Friday to pay last week, this week and all late fees. I don't think I want to continue dealing with her to be honest. As you stated I'm done chasing my money around!
