Home Show Up Date

I was called in unexpectedly to the International Home Show to work the closing shift in the booth for the IDRC yesterday and had a wonderful time.  Thursday is not a very busy day for the show but I found that the people I talked to did not disappoint as they came prepared with pictures, samples and a ton of questions.

Towards the end of my first second consult I discovered the lady I was speaking to was from Cookstown!  Just a short hop from where I live.   I also talked to people from Mississauga, Cabbage Town, Brampton and Caledon!!   I think the great location of the International Centre makes the trip inviting for people no matter where they live.

And now a short rant.  A Mississauga couple told me last night that they were wanting to do a renovation in their home, found a contractor that they liked and thought that the project was moving forward.....until the contractor failed to show up for an appointment.  The contractor also failed to call his clients to let them know, this contractor is no longer their contractor. Why do businesses behave this way at any time but during this economy it's mind boggling.

Cheers
Mary
