<P>OK guys , here's the deal.</P>
<P>A piano teacher I tuned for years ago, stopped using me for =
reasons
unknown, and started using a competitor. He then started =
telling
clients who were mine originally and referred to him for teaching, =
to use
the other tuner.</P>
<P> </P>
<P>Last night I lost another one. The woman said," Oh we just had it =
tuned.Our teacher suggested someone else. But if it doesn't =
sound good
later we'll call you". </P>
<P> </P>
<P>I replied ,"Thank you for your loyalty". "I'll certainly be =
waiting by
the phone for your call"." I am deleting you from my files, Good =
Bye".</P>
<P> </P>
<P>Has this ever happened to you guys and what if anything can =
I do
about it and still be ethical. I deal with about fifteen or more =
teachers
now but I'm really starting to get steamed.</P>
<P> </P>
<P>Thanks,</P>
