Help! How do I break up with my tuner?

[wtg]

I like @Mik ‘s and @Rontuner responses. Polite, to the point, and don’t invite unnecessary discussion.

@Mik said in Help! How do I break up with my tuner?:

You didn’t date the guy.

Too funny. And very true. It was a brief business relationship that you don’t wish to continue. He was paid for his services, so nothing to feel badly about. Time for both of you to move on.

@Mik and @wtg you're both right, it's a business relationship.

I don't know why it's hard to just be straight forward about it. I guess that's why "ghosting" is a think, because people would rather just disappear than say "I don't like you" or whatever.

Just remember - you have a right to expect people to honor your choices, even if they don't like them. A brother and uncle to techs, I assure you it doesn't hurt their feelings.

@CHAS yes, I had the new (to me) tuner come in late June IIRC and he made my piano sound like it did before we moved here a year ago. No wait, actually, he made it sound even better than that because he did some very light voicing in the upper registers which really improved things a lot! I was very, very happy with his tuning! And the piano sounds absolutely wonderful now. I couldn’t be happier!!

That is great. Hope he continues to do well.
