Here We Go Again

This lady should have her computer taken away or maybe her credit card.

Early in the morning, while I slept, she purchased one of my patterns on line and five minutes later sends this message:
"I bought the pattern but thought I could download pattern so I can print it. How do I do this?"

Five minutes after that she sends this: "Please respond"

An hour and 14 minutes later she sends this: "what is going on, please call as I have tried and tried to download pattern I ordered. (insert long distance phone number) or (insert e-mail address)"

Riiight. Like I'm going to call the east coast of the USA from my house. HA!

Shortly after, I discovered her frantic messages and replied to her first message with this: "Hi,
Go to the invoice you received: (insert link)
In the "Ready to Download" box click on "View your files".
Under the little picture of the skirt is a "Download" button. Click on the "Download" button.
Marg

Then I replied to her last message with: "Your payment triggered Etsy's program that sent the pattern to you for immediate download. I was not ignoring you. I have only just found your e-mails.
Marg"

Perhaps I was a bit testy with that last message. Next time I'll have my first cup of coffee before replying to computer illiterates.

I wonder about people who expect you to *right there* ready at any time of day to respond to them.

Didn't you know? There are people in this world who are privileged and they know they are. It's the rest of us who can't figure that out.

This sounds like one of those things that are infuriating at the time but then, recollected in tranquility, might provide a laugh. It appears she also needs to be educated re the time zone differences.

If I'd had my coffee, I would have remembered to tell her I was asleep when she sent the messages. Well, look at that. I'm laughing already.
