My dd has just moved schools. I had some paperwork to hand to the office.
When I got there the receptionist smiled and ushered me forward. Then the phone rang and she told me to hold on.
I assumed it was an important call so didn't mind waiting.
A minute or two later a postman arrived. There is a little gold bell you can ring for assistance.
He pressed it. No reply.
So he left the post on the counter.
More time passed and a parent turned up with her child. They pressed the bell. No reply.
The mother and child waited by the entrance door out of view.
The receptionist then came back scowling and said ' you knew I was on the phone, go away!'
She obviously assumed I was pressing the bell when I hadn't touched it once.
I didn't bother handing in the paperwork and just left.
She probably had a go at the parent waiting too.
What would you do?
We've only been here a week so don't want to make complaints already.
Should I just leave it and hope she's in a better mood when I go there today?
