The part of the blog that people seem to refer to, is when he gets a
call that he has an extra appointment. At the same moment, something
else happens and he forgets to write it down. I would be surprised if
this hasn't happened to everyone at some time or another. Unless no
one ever calls you, of course ;-)

Then prepare to be surprised. Come on, get real. The service industry
handles this all the time. How many times has a plumber or electrician
or contractor failed to show up for you because they "forgot"? When I
was tuning pianos for a living or just for extra income (e.g., in college or
as a side job), I NEVER forgot to write down the appointment and NEVER
forgot to go to the call. My father rebuilt player pianos for decades and
NEVER forgot a call. Not once, not even one time, has someone forgotten
a service call at my house.

If someone doesn't have the discipline to write down appointments, then
they have no business (no pun) doing service-like work.

And finally, there is a world of difference between forgotting once and
having a habit of "forgetting".
