My Frustration
People are really starting to piss me off. Nothing ever seems to go the way it's supposed to or is planned. So what set me off today?
I have been coordinating a visit with my Devon Rex kitten's breeder for over a month now, and had repeatedly told her that I would most likely be coming May12/13 weekend as that was the only time that I would be able to come out and choose my kitten. So I sent her off a confirmation e-mail this past weekend stating we would be coming out May 13, and the time frame we would arrive. Well this morning I receive an e-mail stating she will not be home all weekend as she has family plans. Not to say that I'm not an understanding person, but WTF! She's been telling me since the kittens were born that WHENEVER I want to come she'll make sure she's there. So I go to all the fucking trouble of getting Alex to get the day off when he was already scheduled to work that day, it was a huge hassle for him and an inconvenience for his workplace. Now his shift is completely covered and it was a big pain so it's not like he can say..."oops, I can work that day now" so there's a day of missed wages as well. Then she says she'll make it up to me when I come to pick up my kitten. Well I'm sorry lady but I want to come and SEE my kitten before I come down there to fork over another $750 to you at the time I bring my kitten home. I want to know which one is mine not just show up and grab whichever one is available. It's really poor business in my mind and I don't even want to purchase a kitten from her anymore.
I ran my own business for almost 4 years breeding parrots AND I had a full time job...I still found time to wander onto my e-mails once a day and reply to my customers. I sent updated pictures at LEAST once a week if not more. She has a full time job and children so I understand that she's busy, but it takes about 15 minutes to take a few pictures, put them on your computer, and send them off to me! Am I right? I think that I am. All I ask is once a week I get some updated pictures.... It's all just very frustrating and there isn't another time that I can come out to see the kittens because Alex always works weekends, we hardly ever have days off together and I'm not about to drive 12 hours all by myself, besides, Alex refuses to let me do that! GRRR. I'm so damn tired of looking forward to things and them not happening. I'm sick and fucking tired of it. Everything exciting for me that I look forward to doesn't happen for one reason or another. So maybe I shouldn't look forward to moving in August, maybe that isn't going to happen either...maybe they won't be done building our house! Maybe suddenly I won't be able to have that time off, or Alex won't be allowed or some bullshit like that.
That is my rant for the day..........
