We agreed i would make you gift card ( at my expense ) with the agreed content and a picture of your husband, agreed after numerous emails back and forth, outwith first tutors system. Which i may add i had to explain that i dod not recieve any remuneration on the acceptance fee.
I replied immediately to your emaiis, in some instances long after normal working hours, to accomodate amd answer your questions.
I actually just noticed you emailed me at the weekend , and to be honest i missed it .
I have already designed the card , it my time and expense to you, at no charge and was actually about to send it when i saw this.
I can only assume the reason you have written this is because i am a day late getting the design of the card to you , done in MY OWN TIME AND MY OWN EXPENSE, and didnt jump when you commanded.
If this is how you treat people who are trying to be helpful and deliver exactly as you have outlined , then i am sorry, but i dont need or want business like that.
I wont charge you for my time in creating the gift card, and can i I suggest that you take into consideration , people have other things to do, i have a full.time job , as well as teach . Sometimes other things take priority, and believe it or not , card making not the highest priority i have in my life.
So i appreciate you getting in contact, i wish you well in your search , but i really dont want this type of aggravation or hassle. My pupils are my number 1 priority , and in all cases, have formed personal relationships with them, lasting many years. I dont see any future in this relationship. Thanks again for getting in contact , i hope you find someone who can meet your demands, i am obviously not that person.
Regards
Frazer
