I made an appointment with a customer that was 90 miles / 2 hr. drive (one way) from me. I called before I left to confirm that someone would be there, and they said they would be there. When I got there, the gate opened up to let me in. There were two cars out front. The front door was open, the screen door was ajar, and there was a TV set on very loudly. A dog barked for a few minutes, and then was quiet. I rang the bell a number of times, knocked on the door, yelled inside, walked around the house to see if they were outside, called their phone but got a voice mail. After about 15 minutes, I walked around to a side door that was open. The piano was right there. I went in, kept yelling "Hello", and proceeded to tune the piano. As I was finishing the tuning, the customers came home. They didn't say anything about me being in the house alone, or who let me in. I'd like to know what other tuners would do in this situation.
