It's astoundingly bad form. I hope they are not fooled by the politeness into thinking they can pull this again, though they certainly deserve the Wrath of Bug that it would bring upon them.
Can I mop your brow? I am at the ready with the fearsome brow-mop.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I'm tempted to call and complain to my landlord. But, I'm not sure what good that would do.

Or - if you want to go all passive-aggressive on them - let the place get horribly messy and don't even attempt to pick up when they come knocking. Then say something about how you'd have cleaned up if you knew they were coming, but didn't have time.
Guess this would work against them getting it rented soon ... but mind games are always fun!

Well, it certainly wasn't perfect today. But, oh, well. I'm not gonna let that bother me.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
next time I embarrass her in front of clients
This. A comment like, "Now's not a good time. Try coming back in 4 hours. Or, better, schedule an appointment 24 hours in advance, like you're supposed to."

Exactly.
And I was all, "I thought you were coming at 6."
And later I was like, "So you're not coming back at 6?"
Even later she says, "But I'll be back at 6:30."
UMMMMMM....

vw, if she shows up one minute before 6:30 make her wait. If she shows up late, tell her you're going out at (time) and she and her clients will have to be gone by then. Make sure you emphasize that you've been extremelyu forgiving of her in the past, but you will now expect her to live by the letter of the law.
