I didn't work on Tuesday due to a heavy cold, so when I went to work Wednesday I was still feeling rough but it was a decent job.
Got stuck in traffic so phoned ahead to say I was running late, the Nanny answered and said no problem.
Cleaned 3 beds, Lounge, Diner, Study, Stairs, Landing, minging Hall and minging Rug.
Very happy with the end results and started packing away.
It was only then that the Nanny dropped the bombshell that she had just spoken to her boss, my client, and she had completely forgotten I was coming and therefore hadn't left a cheque.
Told the Nanny I wasn't at all pleased and if she had told me when I first got there that no payment had been left, I wouldn't even had started the job, especially as I felt so rough.
The best of it is, I really didn't want to work that day, but I felt bad about cancelling at such short notice - and she didn't even remember I was coming.
Oh, and the cheque hasn't arrived yet - bloody customers !
