The first one didn't show up at the appointed hour and the second one was late by 20 minutes because we had changed the time when another appointment cancelled on me. And while I was with that student, the first one showed up. He works all day and goes to school at night.<br />So yeah, what you describe has happened to me, but the exceptions make it worth my while to wait.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21152738.post-68903648772701440632015-12-09T16:10:13.652-05:002015-12-09T16:10:13.652-05:00Oh, yep.
