I think you should use the client card all the way on this one. It doesn't matter if they are old or young. We as nailtechs have to have an atmosphere that is good for all types of clients. Maybe stylist can find enough clients that don't take offense by that kind of language to keep them busy, but for us, it's not that easy. There are alot of younger clients that would not appreciate it or they might have a child with them. It is a business and clients should not have to put up with that kind of behavior from other clients or the staff. You could talk to the owner and tell her that you have several clients that are complaining and you can't continue to work under these conditions. If this keeps on happening then I would find a more suitable place to work. Your clients will appreciate you for it. I hope it gets better for you but the chances are slim. When people don't have enough sense to consider their audience before they speak, they probably won't change.

Hopefully she will feel embarrassed.. even if slightly! I cannot imagine how terrible this is for you!!!! I will be hoping you get this situation resolved!

I'm no prude, but dropping the F bomb in front of older women is wrong in any situation. They never seem to edit what they say or how they say it. The other day I had an older client and my mother in law was waiting for me on the couch. One of my co-workers played a comedy routine on her phone really loud so that everyone could hear it. It was very offensive and inappropriate. My client told the girl to turn it off and another client said the same. The girl ignored both clients and let the thing play out. I was so embarrassed. I have brought up bad language twice before at meetings, they say they will quit, but never do. The owner is pretty bad also, and doesn't really care. The problem is, I really don't have a lot of choices in finding another place to go. I rent space and have been at this salon 2 years. I really don't want to change locations again, and don't no where I would go. I'm getting too old to open my own place, and can't find anything small enough. I only work part time and don't know if I would want to put in the long hours of an owner. But I really hate being uncomfortable in a place I pay money for. One of my co-workers had trouble at the last place she worked because of her language. She thinks she has the right to say what ever she wants and doesn't want to change.
