26-year-old "loyal client" spends $460 on waxing services, waxer closes shop doors and refuses to refund her: 'Just sue her... slam dunk case'

If you're trying not to burn bridges with your clients, communication is your best bet. We're all human, and no one is perfect. Some mornings, employees wake up and have a bad cough and a headache, so they'll need to call out that day. If you know anyone with a child, you know that parents need to call out or come in late constantly, thanks to germy children, childcare scheduling issues, or sudden emergencies. Even those without kids or illnesses sometimes have situations to deal with that are quite urgent. It's awkward and unpleasant to have to tell your boss or client that you simply can't work today as planned, but it's better than just avoiding them while they wonder where you are. 

Up next, read about the managers who got paired with the world's worst employees, like one manager who lamented, "I told [an employee] he couldn't spend 4-8 hours on break." Not with that attitude!
