I don't know if this belongs in this particular forum, but it was the closest match I could find to my "issue." This could be long...
There is a girl that had a friend who wanted to host a show (let's call this friend Sarah). I made an appointment with Sarah and told her to meet me at 3 pm at a cafe on a Thursday. I drove the 35 minutes and waited an hour, and she never showed up. I called our mutual friend and she gave me Sarah's cell phone number (I only had her home number). I called her cell and she was "almost there" and asked me to wait a little longer. I waited until 4:30 and she finally showed up.
So we scheduled the show for a Saturday, and I coached her and gave her her packet. She could not decide on what recipe she wanted me to make at her show, and told me she would tell me later. She called me the Monday before her show and asked if we could change it to Friday. I agreed, and she said she wanted to do the mini cheeseburgers.
On Tuesday morning, she called me and asked if we could change it to Thursday. I agreed, she then said that she no longer wanted to do mini cheeseburgers and she would get back to me.
Tuesday evening she called and asked if we could do the show on Friday. Ok...sure.... still no recipe chosen.
Wednesday- I got another call- could we change it back to Thursday. I was about ready to pull my hair out at this point- and agreed to do it Thursday but told her that we only had ONE day and she HAD to tell me what recipe she wanted to do. She finally decided on the Satay Pasta Salad and the mini apple tartlets. I gave her an ingredient list and I told her I would be at her house one hour early.
She lives over an hour away from me, so I drove to her house an hour early only to find that she was missing several ingredients (which I had a feeling she would, so I packed the most important ingredients from my own pantry just in case).
The show was pretty successful- we had 7 guests and $500 in sales. I cleaned up and left her house and told her that I would call her on Saturday morning to get her order (so she could decide on what free stuff she wanted). I didn't stay around b/c it was almost midnight and I live an hour away. I told her it was VERY important to have it ready by Saturday morning b/c I needed to submit the show before my 30 day mark (which is Monday).
I have been calling her ALLLLLL day and cannot get a hold of her. I've sent several emails and left several messages. I dont' know why she can't tell me what FREE stuff she wants (she earned $90 of free products and 2 half price products).
I NEED to submit the show by midnight, b/c for religious reasons I don't do any work on Sundays, and Monday will be too late to submit it before my 30 day mark (and I will lose the $200 PC I worked REALLY hard for).
So what would you do!?! What should I do!?! We share the same religion- so I know she understands that I HAVE to send it in tonight!

I HATE doing that to people. I really hope she calls soon. I would feel just horrible if she didn't get back to me b/c she was in an accident or someone in her family was in the hospital or something.... Ugh... hate this....
