This causes you to become very anxious. This client is very particular. They are recovering from a broken leg. They are an executive who worries all the time about schedules. They are angry about being ill because it interferes with their work schedule. You call them to say you are running late. They grumble but tell you to hurry up because a business client is coming to the home to do business in about two hours.
