Ibs is a bitch I have had it since puberty im sorry you suffered, however the best advise I can give is sadly we just have to suck things like this up. It was a strange coincidence but they do happen and as models we have to accept that people will occasionally mess us about and can be petty when we have to cancel but we need to prove them wrong in doubting our lack of professionalism by being more professional.
Look at the other side, you cant help being ill and gave as much notice as was physically possible but money could still have been lost on studio hire and people may have already traveled up ready for shoot and there could have been a deadline for final footage if its for channel, it will have been a huge strain on producer. So although not mature in your position id have taken a possible tit for tat on chin and left things there.
we need to always present the best possible us we can and an easy going model is much more desirable than one who people know have become aggressively defensive regardless of fault, against fellow producers. I have been lucky enough to film you at work and know from experience that you are a dirty cow on camera and are very professional and come up with top rate scenes, thats why im taking time to write this. I hope its come out right essentially what im trying to say is that unless seriously attacked or pushed on a shoot where other girls well being could be at risk models should just keep stun and put any other problems down to experience as producers will talk and even if you are in the right they will slag you off inevitably while defending themselves and this could take place out of your site on producers forums etc and damage your work load massively which would be horrible as you have what it takes to go on for ages if your scenes are even half as good as the one i saw.

You gave a model 37k??? Dude I was waiting for the punchline thinking it was some kind of joke.
This girl has practically made a career out of you and you let her.

Sorry, my two pence!
John Mason (Johnny Rebel) is one of the most genuine people I've met in nearly FIVE years in this industry!
He certainly isn't a snake in the grass, he tells it like it is and if you can't handle that then you need thicker skin Samara!
I've done god knows how many shoots with him and I've had to cancel on him but he would never not re-book a girl for it if she's willing to work and makes the effort to get the work!
