Getting an Extenstion

I had three shops that I was supposed to do today that are an hour away. There was supposed to be ice this morning, and thankfully that did not happen, however it was bitterly cold. There was a possibility of ice on bridges and overpasses too, so I decided I was not going to chance it. Thankfully, the company called me and extended my shops to Wednesday. I can't do them tomorrow, because Jacob is having his Senior pictures taken in the morning.

Just wanted to let y'all know, that most companies will let you extend out your shop due to the weather. I was able to get my shop done last night!

Be Safe!

Here in the Dallas area, we are expecting ice tonight. I have three shops out in East Texas tomorrow that are $20 each plus some free gas. I have already emailed the company to inform them that I may not be able to do them tomorrow. It isn't worth the money to risk my life! The companies I deal with have always been good about giving extensions during bad weather. I have a shop tonight that is only about 10 minutes away. My partner and I will get a free dinner tonight, UNLESS the weather gets bad. I emailed that company yesterday and asked them what happens if I can't do the shop due to the weather. They emailed me back and said to contact them and they will be happy to reschedule the shops for me.

Another company even sent out an email informing shoppers NOT to cancel shops, but to contact the shopper needs to reschedule due to the weather! It's nice to know that there is commons sense with these companies when it comes to the weather.
