Annoyed by the beautician !!

[mickey54]

I went to a local beauty salon for a treatment with a lady who also has a child in my son’s year at school. I don’t know this lady know but we were talking about the kids work experience I commented my child is going to my husbands business although he is in partnership so 50% is I am not sure but don’t think the school want kids to go with their parents, although this is the path he wants to take when older. Anyway she must have been home repeated this to her child who now keeps taunting my son very loudly saying this isn’t allowed to go with parents . I’m really cross this child could jeopardise it if she carries on and cross she has been home and discussed this with her child !
is there a code of ethics here about not repeating conversations or is it my own fault for opening my big mouth to her ??

I’d have talked about that with my kid too. Sorry!

There’s no beauticians code. You now know shes a bit of a blabbermouth with a mean son.

I don’t see the issue with your DS
going to work with his Dad. My DDs did that, one was really inspired and is now doing a related degree.

Code of ethics lol. Are you sure op? You're being rather dramatic here.

Oh for goodness sake she's done nothing wrong at all.

She's allowed to speak to her family you know 🙄

The kid needs telling off so report him to the school if you want.

Your own fault I'm afraid, no code of ethics for beauty salons.

At least you know now she's not one to tell secrets too!

Is there not a code of ethics about being sneaky about work experience placements and the rules 😂

Hi

Re code of ethics, yes there is one, the one that applies to life. Be careful what comes out of your mouth and whom to as once out, you cant take it back,

Lesson learnt!

I don’t think she should have repeated it but there isn’t anything to stop her doing so.

Vote with your feet and never go back!!

I'm often careful not to pass on what I've heard as it might cause hurt/trouble/drama. So there is a code. A decent human being code! Don't pass on what you hear if you want customers to come back.

There's no code of ethics but she shouldn't have said anything. I bumped into a school mum and she told me something about her ds future career plans but I didn't go and tell my ds in case all the kids start talking and i know its not always appreciated.

@ChanelNo19EDT yes I think this is more true I feel it’s unprofessional to repeat a conversation and I have never used her before but been going to the salon for ten years ( she’s fairly new) Has put me off !

Ok thanks all I didn’t mean literally a code of ethics I guess I mean is it to be expected that conversations are repeated when you speak to them casually !!!

@Comedycook yes exactly you sound like you understand what I mean ! X

My school had a rule that you weren’t allowed to go to the place your parents worked, it was 30 years ago though. I did end up at the same school as my DM as I argued that we’d be in different areas (me in classrooms, she in office).

She’s a beautician, not a therapist! There’s no code of confidentiality. You choose to tell people things, you can’t expect them to hold onto it.

While it is not written, I do thing that any conversation with a professional should not be repeated. I would call the salon and speak with the manager if the son of the woman keeps it up. Nothing may come of it and it may blow over, in that case, then just don't go to her again.

Who is going to ban your child from doing work experience where his dad works, particularly if this is the industry he wants to go into? The school would be ridiculous to do that!

@LutonBeds yes I don’t think they are. Never thinking she would go and gossip about it and said child is being v loud taunting my child!!

@mdinbc yes thank you I did think about messaging the manager as I know her well as it has put me off going which is a shame x

@mdinbc

shes a hairdresser not a therapist!!

@mickey54 it was a bit stupid to be such a blabbermouth when you know what you're doing is almost certain to be against the rules.

@Coolblur its their rules not to go with family members !

Email the manager.

This is your fault. In the words of Taylor Swift. Its you, you’re the problem!
if you know that your child is working around the rules going to a parents company then why on earth have you gone divulging that secret to someone you’ve only just met??

Have a word with yourself and think the next time you think about spilling the family secrets, rather than running to the manager. If your beautician gets in trouble for this then what’s stopping her son blowing your Ds up to teachers?

You could complain to the manager that she gossiped about you. Or not go back.

@PlumbersWifey i was thinking of contacting her but wasn’t sure whether it was right to feel annoyed !

@Autienotnaughtie yes exactly x
