why is she closing because she seems to have a large clientel

She is a pay as you go and isn't making money. She tried to stay open by hiring someone to babysit in her place while she got another job but the girl isn't showing on time and she isn't able to go into work so she is closing. She only had three children besides her own two. But I am not only interviewing with her families. I already have my own interviews.
I just spoke with her. She is closing today! She has had enough of the worker. The kids are starting on Monday now. She is under the impression all the families have places to go and doesn't' seem to know about yesterdays call.Comment

I wouldn't take her; if I desperately needed the income I would definitely require a 2 week deposit upfront.Comment

1) I can’t do that.
2) I have a conflict.
3) I’ll be out of town (or out of the country, or checked out, or out of range, etc.).
4) I never even considered that.
5) I’m not planning on it.
6) I have no intention of doing that.
7) It’s not part of my agenda for today (or this week, or this month, or this lifetime, etc.).
8 ) I’m unavailable.
9) I’m not interested.
10) It’s not my thing.
11) It’s not a priority for me.
12) Nope, Nada.
13) I’m just not good at that.
14) I don’t have room in my life for that right now.
15) It’s my policy to be more discriminating about what I commit to now that I’m older (or “wiser”, “experienced”, etc.).
16) Life is too short to commit to things and people we don’t love.
17) I have commitment issues.
18) I’m afraid I’m not the right person for it.
19) I’m slammed right now but let me recommend ____________ who would be excellent at that.
20) I don’t want to hold you up so feel free to ask someone else.
21) I bet you’ll find someone who can do a better job than I can.`
22) I’ll have to check with the powers that be.
23) My mother taught me not to say yes to everything.
24) Sounds tempting but I’ll have to pass.
25) I wish I could but I simply can’t.
26) Absolutely not.
27) For the last time, no.
28) Talk to my lawyer.
29) I’d rather beat myself with sticks than do that
30) I no longer do things that depress me
31) I’ll do it if you do my grocery shopping for a year

I am going to call around 3ish and give her a heads up that I am full.
I was looking back at last years emails with this mom....it took her three months to commit to a meet and greet. She was selling her house. She was moving. She had not settled on the house. She was working. Etc etc etc. Then her sitter quit on her on a THur and she wanted to come on a Friday without an interview. I said no. She had to interview. Then she finally made the appointment and rescheduled and then showed late. Then in the end wanted a free trial run and when I said sorry she went someplace else. Clearly she is not a committed parent and I had issues that I completely forgot about.
Just spoke with the owner and she isn't sure if her kids will be able to come on Monday now cause this other mom is under the impression I am taking her son and starting Monday too.....SURPRISE!
Man. It is like a soap opera.
This DC mom/owner needs to make a commitment herself before SHE loses her spot for one child that isn't hers!Comment

Just spoke with the interviewing DC mom........
OMG seriously! This woman is under the impression her son was coming! That she thought it was just a 'formality' and her son can remeet me. (This woman is too much!)
So she asked I put her on the waiting list (um hum) but she canceled the meet and greet.
Meanwhile this stalls the new kids from starting Monday!
