In reply to Re: Telephone policies..., posted by Dinah on September 30, 2004, at 22:28:46
This has been the hardest thing to get past with my new T. (almost a year now). He didn't cover phone policies and after a few months I asked about how he handles the phone. He talked about a bad situation he went through with a client and that is why he just doesn't address it with clients until they bring it up. OK...for me that means he thinks I am going to be like the former client and he doesn't want to take a risk...therefore he doesn't really want to help me outside the two hours a week he is getting paid. OK...I have the Stubborn Gene also! We have now talked and he says if I need to I can call...Right! To me thats like asking for flowers and then getting them...its not the same and its not caring. I don't need someone to fill an obligation - if I just want someone to talk to I can call a hotline. Do they just not get the point or am I the one missing something? As you can see this hits a hot button...sorry.
