DO
NOT
HIRE
FOR
A
PAINT
PARTY!!!
Iʻve
lived
in
Honolulu
for
eight
years,
before
that
I
lived
in
NYC,
LA,
and
Seattle.
Working
in
marketing
and
having
a
large
family,
I
have
thrown
countless
events
in
my
life.
I
can
unequivocally
and
without
any
hesitation
say
that
my
experience
with
Jasmin
was
the
worst
experience
I
have
ever
had
with
any
business
owner.
Below,
I
mention
the
numerous
reasons
why
my
experience
with
Jasmin
was
so
terrible,
but
to
summarize...
Jasmin
is
unprofessional,
unorganized,
aggressive,
and
unbelievably
rude.
DO
NOT
schedule
an
event
with
her
if
you
wish
your
guests
to
have
a
pleasant
time!
My
Story:
I
wanted
to
do
something
nice
for
my
mother-in-lawʻs
76th
birthday
and
I
thought
that
a
paint
party
with
her
closest
friends
would
be
a
great
idea.
I
contacted
Jasmin
and
we
began
to
discuss
the
details
of
the
party.
Her
demeanor
was
pushy
and
condescending
on
the
phone,
but
I
very
much
wanted
to
do
the
paint
party,
so
I
ignored
my
instincts
about
her
and
proceeded
with
planning
the
event
(big
mistake).
Jasmin
demanded
that
she
be
paid
weeks
in
advance
of
the
event,
even
though
I
told
her
repeatedly
that
I
did
not
yet
have
the
number
of
attendees
finalized.
She
charged
me
$50
a
head
and
then
asked
me
if
I
wanted
to
tip
her
15%,
18%,
or
20%
over
the
phone.
I
have
never
heard
of
tipping
someone
before
they
perform
their
service
for
you,
but
I
obliged
and
gave
her
a
20%
tip.
Something
I
strongly
wish
I
had
not
done
and
will
never
do
again
given
my
experience
with
Jasmin.
I
found
out
later
that
one
of
my
guests
was
not
going
to
be
able
to
make
it.
When
I
told
Jasmin
of
the
change,
she
didnʻt
offer
me
any
sort
of
refund.
She
seemed
to
choose
to
ignore
the
fact
that
I
was
now
being
overcharged.
I
let
it
go,
and
just
thought
of
the
money
I
lost
as
an
extra
tip
for
Jasmin.
During
one
of
our
phone
conversations
Jasmin
told
me
I
could
bring
my
own
wine
and
dessert
if
I
wished,
or
I
could
purchase
dessert
from
her.
Honestly,
when
I
looked
at
the
photos
of
her
pastries,
they
did
not
look
at
all
appetizing,
so
I
opted
to
bring
my
own
cake.
I
informed
her
via
text
that
I
would
be
bringing
my
own
cake
and
that
we
would
purchase
drinks
from
her.
She
texted
me
back
that
that
would
be
fine
and
I
thought
that
was
the
end
of
it.
During
the
party,
while
Jasmin
made
the
drinks,
I
asked
where
we
could
gather
to
cut
my
MILʻs
cake,
she
rudely
told
me
we
could
gather
outside
the
cafe
to
do
it.
As
we
were
exiting
the
cafe,
Jasmin
had
the
audacity
to
yell
at
me
in
FRONT
OF
ALL
OF
MY
GUESTS,
telling
me
that
she
makes
her
money
by
selling
her
food
and
that
I
shouldnʻt
have
brought
my
own
cake,
as
I
was
stealing
business
from
her.
I
was
completely
shocked,
not
only
had
I
been
given
permission
both
verbally
and
over
text
to
bring
my
own
cake,
but
bringing
my
own
cake
hadnʻt
even
been
my
own
idea,
she
had
suggested
it
to
me.
Now
she
was
literally
yelling
at
me
and
attempting
to
shame
me
in
front
of
my
guests.
We
started
the
paint
party.
The
whole
time
we
were
painting,
we
only
got
two
instructions
from
Jasmin,
“make
sure
your
paint
brush
is
wet”
and
“draw
an
ʻSʻ
to
get
the
correct
shape
for
the
seahorse”.
Otherwise
no
instructions
were
provided.
Jasmin
obviously
does
not
have
the
training
needed
to
teach
an
art
class.
Repeatedly,
Jasmin
came
over
to
my
MIL
and
yanked
her
paint
brush
out
of
her
hand.
My
MIL
is
not
a
visual
artist,
and
Jasmin
continually
berated
her
for
her
painting
not
looking
like
the
example.
She
made
my
MIL
feel
singled-out
and
extremely
uncomfortable.
Once
the
party
was
over
and
my
MIL
and
I
had
said
goodbye
to
our
guests,
we
tossed
our
paintings
into
the
nearest
dumpster.
We
both
agreed
that
Jasmin
was
one
of
the
most
unpleasant
humans
we
had
ever
encountered
and
we
didnʻt
want
to
have
anything
to
remind
us
of
the
event.
If
Jasmin
was
an
employee
of
a
larger
company,
I
would
have
demanded
my
money
back.
HORRIBLE
EXPERIENCE!
