so, I just got home from a show. It was one of the ODDEST...
The hostess is very softspoken and I had to drag a decision out of her regarding recipes. That was the beginning. So I get there today and she says that 6 or 7 are expected. Ok...average. Anyway, these ladies get there and are talking about church and such. One of them had their daughter there who was MAYBE 20. The were talking about her recent wedding in the living room while I was fininshing final preps. They all came into the kitchen and low and behold, the 20 year old is pregnant. Ok, obviously that was the reason for the marriage from the way the conversation was going. No problem. So one of the other ladies asks her how she's coming along with submission. I was thinking HUH? Conversation continues. Obviously it means submission to her new husband. Kept my mouth closed.
I do my demo and all is well. I start to tally orders and 4 of them ask to take a catalog because they have to get their husband's PERMISSION! I really had to bite my toungue... Plus, I'm getting very protective of my F/W catalogs b/c i'm running low and still have 4 shows left this month
anyone else have an experience like this???
