Another favorite of mine was this model from DC. She would call all the time, asking to be scheduled, yet on the day of the shoot, she would call or email and say she just got her "monthly", not a poor excuse right? Try 3 weeks in a row !! I told her on her last call to not bother contacting me any further. I was no longer interested. 

3 weeks in a row?? You should've advised her to see a doctor. lol

Since most never bother to call or e-mail, they just choose to not show up, I don't get all of their stories. Suffice it to say that I have been left sitting on location more than a few times.

* Mom Dad, Grama, Grampa, dog, cat died
* Dad in the hospital, can't come, don't call my house I don't want my mom to know I'm a model.
* Went over to a friend's house to do laundry and got too drunk to drive home
* Too much Jager last night, sorry.
* Didn't feel well yesterday, so I slept in
* My boyfriend and I got in a fight and now my make-up is ruined so I can't shoot tonight. Boyfriend gets on phone and says he is an a__hole and to give her another chance some other time
