You've taken the moral high ground, okay, because you thought
you had been wronged, Yes, And I really did over
the holidays because I organized. I was trying to be proactive.
I've got a lot of stuff done around the house
and we've lived there, We've had the house built now
for six years and never had the air cons serviced.
What Yeah, And so I was like, right, I'm booking
(00:53):
that in that's going to happen. Well, I'm going to
get I'm going to get air conditioned. I'm going to
get the air cos. I've cleaned the filters myself. But
I've never had a proper service. So I booked in
a service and then and it was for Friday, not
last Friday, the friday before, which was turned out to
be the last day of school holiday. So I had Rafael,
my little boy, with me, but I said, it's all right,
they're coming between nine and twelve and then you and
(01:15):
me we're going on our bikes. We're going to go
for a ride. We're going to go down to winter.
We'll get some fish and chips. It's going to be
a great day. Last day school, highdays. That's good. Yeah.
And so at nine o'clock he's sort of is it
time to go?
Speaker 2 (01:26):

Speaker 1 (01:27):

And I'm checking. Yeah, I've got a confirmation email. It's
definitely today.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
Eleven o'clock is still not here. Twelve o'clock not here,
not that one o'clock. They get two one o'clock, and
I said, I don't know what's happening about. I don't
think they're coming. Look, let's just we'll just go. We'll
just go. Then I get a phone call from daycare
to say Cianna's got gastro you've got to come pick
her up. So then I go the day it's gone.
(01:54):
I'm set up. Sorry, but muddy buddy, our day's over.
Like we're not going anywhere. We can't ride, and so
now and then so he's crying, he's in tears, and
so I said, right, that's it, that's it. And I
get it, I get my keyboard, open up my laptop.
You wait, you wait their conditioning, you are going to
cop it?

Speaker 1 (02:20):
Then I write, Hi, Sophia. I noticed I got a
reminder email to tell me that the job was booked,
and that threatened one hundred dollar cancelation fee if I
wasted waiting for someone. Sorry, cancelation fee. I wasted the
time I wasted waiting for someone to arrive who never
showed up. I wonder will I be getting the one
hundred dollars. Oh, it was my son's last day of
(02:43):
school holidays. We waited together all day. I told him
we'd go for a ride once the job was done.
We waited until one pm, at which time I had
to pick up his sister from daycare, as she had
ended the day early was sick. He ended up in tears. Anything,
any type of communication from you guys, to say you're
running late, would have greatly changed the shape of my day.
What is interesting about that complaint email is you've got emotional.
