    Should I call... Should I wait?

    Okay so I desperately need to build my enrollment. I have two interviews scheduled for today and both of them are late. One parent called and asked to push back the time to 4pm, its currently 4:19pm. Should I even try and contact her or leave for the day. I have no kiddies and this is my time to get other things done. :confused:

    It would have been nice to get a call if they were running late any further! I'd assume if they pushed it back to 4 pm, they are likely running late from something else....so maybe a bit later then they thought!?

    I guess you have to consider if this is something they will do at pick-up times? Drop off? I always base their timing, personalities etc. on that first visit, so I'd be a bit concerned that this would continue. Having said that, I'd want a reason of course and maybe it's ligit???

    I guess it's a matter of how badly you need them?!

        Leave a message stating that you will be leaving at _:__ and that you are open to rescheduling if this is not the best time for their family. That way there are no surprises AND you're not stuck waiting forever!

          Everyone is being so much nicer than I would be. I'd leave. If they have already rescheduled and still can't show on time, that does not send me good vibes that they'll have their act together when they enroll. I'd be running as fast as I can from this family!!
