Moral dilemma and a way to say sorry

So the neighbour with the autistic child was really understanding and both her and the lad were grateful for the apple tree I brought them.

The customer was out so I sent an e-mail explaining that all the work has been done and hope you are happy etc etc. Not heard back yet but it has all gone better then I had hoped and is a lot of stressing off my shoulders. Thanks for all the replays.

 

Haha Joe, that was a thought that went through my head but I thought maybe best to not have anymore hassle from this one.

Going back to earlier in the thread and your concerns about the customer bad mouthing you. I think that's a fear everyone has, but in reality I think few would really listen. Don't let that worry cost you time and money in the future

Wise words mate. Can't please everyone. It's just a right pain when you get thrown in to a situation like this.

I support a young lad with autism ( second job - as a support worker ) and you have to explain very clearly what you intend to do , otherwise things can go wrong.... but also get them involved in doing things too , like help planting the tree....:thumbup1:

 

 

Good for you. I can imagine that is bloody hard work but also very rewarding. I did explain the lad what was going to happen and that he could have apples every year once the tree was established. He helped take down the bits that were attached to the branches and was very pleased to use his pen knife. He seems like a really great kid. I just hope this whole thing hasn't upset him too much.
