My song for Mr. Rocchio is from Godspell: TURN BACK OH MAN!…read more Let me digress. Definition of the unconscionable contract: A transaction in which only ONE side benefits isn't a legal contract in the eyes of the law, even if everything is written out on paper and both parties have signed the document. After meeting Michael on the phone he sent me such a contract. The one that benefitted ONLY himself. Because he has oodles of rules, a one sided contract and a fee of $1300.00, I called several hours before our first session and asked him if we could have one evaluation session. This would give me an education on what I was about to purchase and embark on. I offered to pay him over his pay rate to grant me this initial time with him. I believe that it is imperative to clique with your therapist, doctor, dentist and VOICE TEACHER. So here's where it gets good...... (phone call 2 hours prior to meeting) Me: Hi Michael. How are you? M: Busy! Me: Oh sorry. Do you have a minute? M: I guess so. Me: I had a few questions before coming in. First off, I wanted to begin right away with you so I chose tomorrow's time. However, I do have a conflict with the following week. Could we possibly meet on another day for this one session? (over a weeks notice). M: If you read the contract it says that I DO NOT DO MAKE UPS. You can switch with someone but NO MAKE UPS. Me: Ok. (This is stated in his contract however, since we were starting in 24 hours and he offered me several time slots, I thought I would ask for an exception). NO soup for me! Asking made him bristle. Well, the other thing I was wanting to know is if we could make today's first lesson be an evaluation to see how we clique and to give me a better idea of your class. I will pay you more to do so. M: I don't understand! What do you need to evaluate? We had a nice conversation on the phone and everything else is on line! It sounds like you want to evaluate ME! Me: (Um how dare I? But, ya). Well, I think that meeting in person allows us both the opportunity to know one another. I am a teacher and I clearly understand the importance of commitment on your end. I just want to see what I am buying on my end. M: I'll tell you what then.... Why don't you pay me $100 dollars and come "MEET" me. (Then a loooooong silence). Me: Ok. M: If I sound annoyed, it's because I AM! I am insulted! Me: I see that you are upset here. I don't want to upset you. I don't think we are a match. (Let me just say here that I have asked people with higher degrees and less ego for an initial consult. Like ANYONE in the medical field. They are happy to oblige. But....... this was MAESTRO! You don't question MAESTRO!) M: Ya. Neither do I. And... there ya have it folks! Never even sung a note. I'm an educator and I have never found arrogance to be beneficial to my students on any level. However, If you want to hone skill sets on how to navigate an arrogant, self over rated, braggadocious personality type, give his contract a sign. Be on the look out for my first hit song, "I dodged a bullet."
