My most regular guy is usually pretty good: funny/cool, responds fast to msg's, and gives fair (sometimes very good) pricing. BUT, he uses both meth and opiates daily, and when his meth use gets extreme enough, he becomes the fucking poster child for drug dealer time. Today I texted him when I got up around 9, and he msg'd back that he'd be good to go by noon and would meet me by my place. Told me his connect was just around the corner, so I figured that even factoring in the usual waiting, I'd be getting high by 2 pm at the latest.
Well, he showed up by 1 (high as f*ck on meth), wasn't able to reach his nearby connection, so chilled with me smoking til about 2, then went off to meet someone else to re-up. Told me he'd be back within the hour, and sure enuf, just got back as I was getting ready to meet another dealer...5 HOURS LATER. I asked (nicely) what took so long, and he was like, "What? Just met her now..." Seriously, if I had known meeting this dude was going to eat up my entire day off, I probably would have made other arrangements...and the lack of consideration for customers' time is just mindblowing sometimes.
I know in bigger cities there are options for gang-operated delivery services/open air markets, etc, which are staffed and handled a lot more professionally than this every-man-for-himself b.s., where no professionalism needs to apply...but where I live, unreliable dealers are often all there is.
