[pianotech] What do you say?

[John Ross]

I read a joke, about someone asking for a call annually, as that is what their Dentist did.
The answer was, when he calls you the next time, give me a call.

Nothing I despise like being out "to work", and not working because the customer forgot. With our busy-busy lives, I can understand why doctors and dentists call with a reminder. They like full schedules, too. Like you said, Wim, I also have "better things to do with my time." Such as not sitting around waiting for the next appointment if someone forgets.
