Well for those of you that remember, I hosted a PL show for one of my first PC hosts (I will refer to her as PLG). What a nightmare! I have her set up the show online so I can send e-invites (which I do like a good host does) and I send out my e-invites.
First, one of our fellow PC'rs wanted to place an order to help me out (thank you Liz). When going to PLG's website, there is no place to "place an order" so Liz sends a contact message saying that she wants to place an order. Then PLG emails Liz back telling her that because she lives in TX that she will try to find her a consultant in TX. HELLO! sending my guest to another consultant. GRRR. Fortunately Liz told her that she was placing the order so I would get credit. Then the trials of trying to figure out how Liz could get her order shipped to her and get the guest special. Do you know that she said because Liz was not going to physically be at my show that she would not be eligible to get the guest special unless Liz or I paid the difference between the normal price and the special price (which I did because a) Liz's generosity and b) I felt it was owed to her. Like Liz was going to hop on a plane and fly here just for a PL show. Then, as if that weren't enough, the whole ordering process was a fiasco. In order for Liz to be able to order and have it shipped directly to HER, A gift certificate had to be ordered and redeemed (don't ask, I am still scratching my head over that one). When I asked PLG about online ordering, since most of my e-invites were from out of state, she yells at me I TOLD YOU THAT YOU CAN ONLY VIEW THE PRODUCTS ONLINE...PEOPLE CAN'T ORDER FROM THEM!
And this was before I had my actual show. I was soooo ready to tell her where to stick her candles and light them...but I took the high road. She made no contact with me before the show date...My DD is on the same basketball team as her DD AND her hubby is their coach. I saw her at the game Sat. (my show was last Sunday) and she made no effort to even talk to me to see if we were still on or not. NOTHING!! IF she succeeds with PL it will only be but for the grace of God and not her warm and fuzzy, personable skills. I feel good knowing that I fulfilled my commitment to her but feel even better knowing that I will sit in a stinky, dark house before I buy another candle from her. Sorry for the long vent but I had to share. Valky
