No-Show
A "No-Show" refers to a situation where an individual fails to attend a scheduled appointment or event without prior notice. This can occur in various contexts, such as medical appointments, job interviews, or reservations at restaurants. No-shows can lead to inconvenience for service providers and may result in lost revenue or wasted resources.
In many cases, businesses implement policies to address no-shows, such as charging cancellation fees or requiring deposits. This helps to mitigate the impact of no-shows on their operations and encourages customers to communicate any changes in their plans.
