The "Boss", aka She Who Must Be Obeyed, decided that we had too much unused space in the bedroom closet. I didn't know that I was wasting her "precious closet space". I'm happy with my system of piles of folded clothes and boxes. It must be "women are from closet space and men are from piles and boxes". So the "Boss" called one of these famous closet space companies to make an appointment. Pat, the sales rep, spent 2½ hours asking questions, counting piles and measuring. When she was done, she used her laptop to design the new space for the bedroom closet, and to give us a price quote.

These things aren't cheap! We are talking the price of a Nikon d700, after the price increase. For the optional doors, we are talking a Nikon 24-70/2.8. The optional shoe rack with doors is the price of Canon 70-200L/4-IS

She showed us the design, then asked for the "Boss"'s email address so she could email the drawings and the quote. Then? Nothing. No follow up, not a peep from her.

She could have called the next day:

I'm calling to make sure that you've received my email. So many people can't receive attachments or it goes to their spam folder.

and from there, continue the discussion with what we thought about it. She could also send monthly newsletter via emails or via snail mail, she has our name address, phone number and email.
