So about four years ago The Mister bought an industrial sewing machine for a project we were going to be working on. When I say we, I mean, I was going to be doing the sewing and he was helping with the prep.
Anyway, project finished ….for now, and we realised that an ordinary sewing machine would do the trick. So, we are trying to sell the industrial one.
A family ….a kid you not ! ….came to look at it a couple of weeks ago ….the lady hadn’t a clue how to use it and I think was put off with the size and strength ( !!! )
Anyway, she decided she didn’t want it and off they all tootled.
Last Sunday a lady messaged just as we were going out asking to come and view it and see it working. I asked if she could come the following weekend …on Sunday, as we had the Grandkids on Friday / Saturday. She agreed to this.
Today is the day ….
I messaged her this morning asking if she is still coming and it is now 7 hours later and she hasn’t even replied.
Of course I know she is not coming now but I wish she had said or not agreed to come. I know plans change but a text takes less than a minute !
Anyway, that means it’s still for sale !

I am annoyed when people make you wait without any text or call. It's a simple courtsey to do. But these days, many don't care about it.

@Traceyjayne It is. And I have been in such situation a couple of times recently. Now, everyone carries a phone in hand. I wonder how much of time and effort one has to put to keep the other person informed

@arunima25 exactly….it only takes a few seconds to send a text. If she wants to come she will have to wait a couple of weeks as we are busy next weekend.

I hate when people don't show up or respond. It's so rude.
