This is not my week... Bit of a rant coming up here lol, I need to vent!
I recently advertised on my AW blog that I was looking for a driver - I had some ridiculous applications, and some pretty nice ones from genuine men who were respectful, polite, and understood the role.
I also recieved LOADS of emails from one man named Chris, who works full time in Tesco as a manager (great, so no spare time to drive me around...).
Not only did he refer to me as "honey", "sweetheart" and "baby", he gave me an incorrect telephone number TWICE. I emailed him and said I'd filled the position and wouldn't be interviewing anyone else (a lie, but he was boring me).
Today, I get a booking request on AW.
"1 hour, ?60. We can talk about me being your driver, then have some hot sex =)"
SO - me being me, and in a pretty arsey mood already, I typed out a lovely email to him...
Hi.
Firstly - my outcall rate for 1 hour is ?100, not ?60. I'm not sure why you thought you were a candidate for a discounted rate, as I state on my profile I do not give discounts to anyone.
Secondly, I wouldn't engage in any form of sexual activity with a prospective employee, be it in my personal or business life.
Thirdly, may I ask - did you go into your interview at Tesco referring to your interviewer/prospective employer as "honey"?
I'd bet quite a bit that you didn't, and I don't understand why you thought it was acceptable to refer to me in that way.
When you responded to the advert, you were applying for a job. I would have been your employer, you would have been paid in cash and certainly would not have been giving any "freebies" or discounted rates.
I am running a business, I pay taxes, and I am looking for a professional employee who conducts their business with such standards.
Please refrain from sending me anymore correspondence, it will be ignored.
I pressed send... to find out he's deleted his AW profile. Either that, or he's been suspended. I'm so mad, I wanted to give him a piece of my mind!! ARGH.
WHY!
