Real Estate Agents suck

gemfyreToday's example.
When I enquire about a property online I ask two questions - when is the house open for viewing? And do they allow cats? I give them my e-mail address and my mobile number.
Yesterday I got an e-mail reply telling about a house that was open this evening. Matt was able to go to the viewing. I e-mailed back asking again, do they allow cats. It's kind of important.
Today during the day I rang the agent to ask again - do they allow cats? I got an answering machine and left a message, which I never got a reply to.
I guess Matt went to the viewing after work. Instead of viewing some other houses - because 99% of the houses are (a) open during work hours (I thought they preferred to rent to employed people - when are we meant to view??) and/or (b) they're all open at the same time.
I get home and I read my e-mail, she's replied "Sorry, no cats".
*slams head on desk* If you'd just answered that question the first time around or at least returned your damn phone calls you wouldn't have wasted our time!!
