I'd like your thoughts please.
I have two little problems I would appreciate others opinion on if you will, please.
Question One. I wasn't very well last week, and by Friday finally managed to get a GP appointment.
Unfortunately, it was with a Doctor I had put in a complaint about earlier this year, which was a little awkward.
Anyway, he gave me two sorts of meds to take.
I felt so rough, I didn't notice until later that evening that the twit had given me a med. that I react badly to. It made me very poorly a few years ago, and was quite clearly put on my medical rercords as I am not to have it as I get an allergic reaction.
I decided to try one just incase it didn't have the same bad affect it did before and everything seemed alright. By the time I took the second one next day, I started feeling bad so stopped taking it.
The thing is, that could have been dangerous him giving me something which is marked clearly on my records that I am not supposed to have.
So what would you do about it - if anything?
Question 2.
A chap was coming to put me a new roof on my small kitchen extension in August.
A couple of days before he was due to start, I text him and said I would appreciate knowing what time he was likely to be here.
He replied that he wasn't coming!
He has an old hand injury and is waiting to know if he has got to go back into hospital.
I never heard again. So thought perhaps he was in hospital. I left it a few more days and text to ask if everything was alright, but received no reply.
Left it a few more days and text again. Still no reply.
I didn't know what to do, as I wanted this roof done before the bad weather sets in, and he was giving me no idea on what was happening, or whether he could even do the job still.
A few days afterwards I received a text from him, apologising, and saying he hadn't had his phone on as he was on holiday in Croatia!!
He said he'd ring me when he's back in about another 10 days.
Now here is the problem.
I feel terribly let down, and if I'm honest, Yes - I feel angry too.
He must have known he had a holiday booked, so why didn't he just tell me that?
If I wait for him to come back, and his hand is still bad, I have waited for nothing.
If I don't wait, it means I will have to start from the beginning again and try to find someone else who can do it quite quickly and I can trust to do a good job.
The most difficult part is, he is a friend and I'd hate to fall out over it, but I am not happy with how I've been treated.
What would you do?
Wait, or go elsewhere?
