Dear "Prospective" Tax Client (VENT)

I realize during this time of year--you have just received your W-2 and are quite anxious to do your taxes and get all that money you believe you deserve back. My office is not large, but we do well and have some loyal clients. So when I am going over paperwork with someone who has been coming to me for 5+ years, it really is just GREAT when you, whom I have never seen in my life, come in, and attempt to get "in front" of all the other clients waiting...shove your W-2 in my face and say "How much I be getting back?"

When I ask if you plan on doing your taxes with us and you say, "Well I dunno, cause like I be looking to see who gets me the MOST back," it is great entertainment when you throw a tantrum and get angry at me when I inform you that I do not do "free estimates" on taxes...especially when I have PAYING clients waiting for my time. Its even more hilarious to listen as you b*tch and moan about "Well how am I supposed to know if i WANT to do my taxes if you don't TELL ME how much I'm getting back if YOU do them."

If i sat around giving out estimates all day long, well I would be out of business. So please don't bother stopping by my place, as I have no time for you and all you do is cause me to want to drink while at work.

Just tell him that based on your brief glance of his w-2, he owes $10,000. That will get him out of your face but fast.

the best part? he only made about $8400 "on the books" during the year -- and is claiming 2 kids---and another place said they could "get him" like $4K in refund (which is 100% accurate) and he didn't think that was "enough"

mind you he paid ZERO TAX

omg YESSSSSSSSS!!!! they are always moaning and groaning about the prices.

and no--i did not take him cause in his "i'm the most important person in the world" mentality--i didn't drop everything and attend to him....so he left to get a "better deal" elsewhere.
