I work for a consulting company. In the past two weeks, I have only had my regularly scheduled appointments, nothing else pre scheduled to fill in my time. 15 minutes before a big empty block, every day, without fail, there has been an "emergency" that i have to get to now now now. Usually, the emergency is poor planning, poor promising, or complete and total fear of the client on the part of the sales guy. Today, I'm at my regular, very good client, and a machine goes down. I call the sales guy to tell him that I just am not going to be able to make my afternoon appointment (which I already had him push back an hour because I was an hour late to work from TRAFFIC.) He panics. He's terrified of the client. Abso-freakin-lutely terrified. So he agrees with her that I'll go over there, even if it's only for an hour. Dollars to donuts, she will not have a list for me, and probably won't really have anything for me to do.
