Hmmmm....when I think of a family emergency, I don't think about child care. That's a family 'situation'. An emergency, to me, is when someone needs medical attention. Besides, if a provider can't find a sitter for their kid, just say "I can't find a sitter for my kid". Why sensationalize? Originally Posted by OrdAvgGuyAgreed. That's what I say anyways.

I don't have kids. But men flake/cancel on me 10x more than I do on them. It really is a two-way street. Originally Posted by bustybabygirlGentlemen Definitely Cancel Or NC/NS Way Way More Then Us Ladies.
Ladies and gents, I've been hobbying since Christ was a kid, and if I hear "I had a family emergency" one more time, I'm gonna scream. In years past, I just accepted the story and wished them well. But I'm gonna start calling bullshit on it moving forward.I Have A Disabled Mother That I Care For. When My Mother Calls And Says I Need You, I'm Going To Her No Matter What I Have Planned. I Am All She Has. Family Comes Before Any One Of You, Without Question Or Second Thought.
It's double edged sword too. Us hobbyists gotta take our medicine, cuz God forbid you should doubt their story. That would make YOU look like an insensitive jackass. Well guess what? I'm not buying it anymore. If you wanna play games and give us the runaround, come up with something fresh. And pet emergencies are getting old too, so don't even.
I figure 10% of these claims have merit, so once out of every ten times I get swept under the rug because of these 'emergencies', I'll actually give the provider the benefit of the doubt. Other than that, sorry but I'll take my business elsewhere. I'm slowly but surely learning that despite your great ass or your superior head giving skills, the best providers are the ones who communicate, and treat the provider with a level of respect.
Happy hobbying and providing. Originally Posted by OrdAvgGuy
