Misdirected Email

[NoMoreJuice!]

I wonder what the email version of a Freudian slip is called? Has anybody pondered the idea that the email wasn't an accident? Random thoughts.

I don't blame you for being angry and hurt. I would advertise to replace her, and in the meantime nail her on late fees, hard. If she steps one toe out of line, enforce your policies or just term whenever you feel like it. Luckily, you have all the power on your side of the battle line.

I agree. It was eating at me too much so I sent it back and wrote as someone suggested, ''I don't think this was intended for me.''
I am so nervous! I can't imagine what she'll say to me.

Awesome!!

I would have done the same. PLEASE update us as to what happens!

This!!!! Dying to know!

I certainly will update. It's 11:15 pm (CST), and I haven't heard a word. She's the first to arrive, so we'll see how she acts tomorrow.

I guess I'm the odd man out.

There is one more issue with this whole scenario. She tells someone. That someone tells someone. Word gets around ya know and it could affect a business.
She should not be let off the hook for this, and I'm so glad you called her on it. She sounds like someone who feels entitled and needs to realize different rules for different places.
Anyone wanna make bets someone else drops off today? Or Tasha gets a call 'dcg won't be in'.
And yes, NoMoreJuice, I expressed that exact thought earlier that maybe it could have been an intentional slip. Maybe I've become too paranoid in my old age.

Tasha, I would have her things packed and a term notice ready just in case you don't like her reaction. That way you can end it today if needed. You shouldn't have to be disrespected by her in your own home. I'm not saying term her on spot, but if she's nasty then you will be prepared.

I'm with you on this. But I am sorry it made you feel bad Tasha :hug:

No, you're not. My first reaction was to term.
But honestly? Sometimes I don't think good thoughts about my clients. Sometimes I even vent about them
I also seem to recall a couple of times here when a provider accidentally sent a text to clients where she was venting about them

I have one client that I'm pretty sure she doesn't "love" me, though she is always cordial.
But, her payment is on time each week.

They don't need to like me all the time. They can be annoyed with what they perceive as an injustice.
I mean, if they vent like that about me to others, but stay in my care, then who's the one who looks like an idiot?

It's one thing if they are rude or call names to your face. Then I'd say term for sure. With this I might just see how it plays out. Being prepared to term if she takes her attitude out in the open. Otherwise I'd keep cashing her checks, laughing all the way to the bank

See now I feel old because the first thing I thought of was George Clinton & Parliament Funkadelic . I think Snoop covered it!

:::: Yes! Atomic dog. The hit of the roller rink.

Good luck OP. Let's hope she retreats instead of "bowing" up I tend to avoid poking bears, but maybe sometimes you have to. Please keep us updated.

I agree with Michael though, it is easier to let stuff roll off as you get older. There is this old quote that fits "What other people think of you is none of your business."

[midaycare]

When I know someone doesn't like me, I'm extra nice. It confuses them and it's fun to watch.

My MIL swears this is how she got SIL to break up with the serious boyfriend she had after college. Apparently he was so rude and MIL knew if she wasn't nice it would push SIL to get even more serious::

Good for you!! Can't wait to hear the update.

I get letting it roll of your back and I have done that too but I have not ever had anyone call me a bitch (that i know of ). Not to mention email it to me. I mean we all vent about parents, but I honestly have not seen any of us call them names like that. Saying someone is irritating or you can't figure them out or why do they do that is way different than saying she's a BOW.

Honesly I am like this in most every other area, but no one should put up with abuse. Are you saying if your business partner called you a derogatory name to his friend you'd still want to be in business with them? I just don't get that. A level of respect needs to be present in a business relationship. I think respectful venting is fine but name calling is crossing a line.
