Congratulations Miss Carrie!!! cat

I was approached in "Americas Greatest Bar" in Atlanta, Georgia by a brick shit house in leathers. He said "Hey pretty girl! I have a Harley outside and I bet you can suck start it." I just about fell off my chair... cat

Thank you everyone! I didn't realize it was that high... cat

FTR... I have a dog. Not a pit bull (but he would like to be) and not a purse dog. Doesn't bite, not sure if he has fully functioning brain but he's happy to have a forever home now. Just sos y'all know... cat

What I find interesting is that all of these eyes except Meg Foster are employing either the light or heavy smoky eye makeup technique. Hmmmm... cat

13 might have been asked due to a previous bad experience (a member posted here about an SP he was with that informed another client that she'd be with him in the matter of minutes while he was still in the room). I understand but if you've ever met me, you would understand my shock. I'm OCD, my place reeks of Javex from sanitizing and everything including my body is immaculate... cat

This is a chicken/egg situation. Agencies can't attract quality providers if the phone doesn't ring, clients don't like to call if there are no quality providers. If clients aren't willing to stand up for quality by refusing B+S and time running by communicating this to the phone person and just resort to using unqualified Indies then they feed the cycle. Agencies earn their $ by teaching the new girls the industry, it's like the internship of our industry. Hold the agency accountable and they will learn. I cut my teeth in Toronto but spent the bulk of my career in a small southern US city that is as country hillbilly as you can get. When I started the city price standard was $90/hh and $150/h. I would sometimes have to drive 90 mins for an hh appt and there was no driving fee so I made $45. I was always as busy as the phones were but the agencies weren't professional in the hours that the phones were answered so if the phone girl was busy, I didn't work. Complaints were common from clients about the quality of service and providers but because of LE and the agency's inherent unreliability; good girls steered clear of the city entirely. There was no verification of clients and I never knew if I was walking into a LE sting or not; I had to rely on instinct with every new guest. I did this for years and paid the bills with little left over at the end of the month but learned the craft of developing regulars so cut down on the number of new guests I had to see, lessening the risk of running into LE. Then a provider set up shop who answered her phones 24/7. She charged $200/h, no hh's, verified out the ass to ensure they weren't LE and took no bullshit from clients which started attracting quality providers. Our rates rose because the demand was there and we were the only professional game in town. The key to remember is that a good provider will make money no matter how bad the agency is and it only takes one good provider to put an agency on its feet initially. Agent/provider is a symbiotic relationship that will grow if there is adequate $ and a willingness to spend it in the area. While there may be no quality agencies in Winnipeg, I've heard from local escorts out west that the industry is very poorly based (like the East Coast) which is why I've never visited. I judge the viability and potential of a city for local providers by the frequency in which the travelling girls are willing to visit it. My "allowable bullshit factor" is fairly low so the Canadian midwest isn't high on the to do list except if I go fishing... cat

I think she has a point. Running a legitimate business within the parameters outline by local government is more expensive and if she requires a license then why shouldn't the Indies? I take great issue to the fact anyone can take a cell phone pic, throw up an on line ad and call themselves a Service Provider/Escort/Prostitute. Most have no customer service skills, business administration acumen or established ethical protocol in place and that reflects badly on the women who take the time, effort and $ to make this a genuine career choice. These women often don't understand the health and safety aspects of the trade, they certainly don't have the necessary skills or self esteem to handle the battering ram they get hit with full force when it comes to men who intentionally hunt the young and inexperienced. They bring to the table an instability that this industry really can't afford while putting themselves in situations they have no clue how to handle. If they had to walk into city hall with ID and a criminal background check to get a business license it would be a service to us all. I, for one, miss the days of well run agencies where I didn't have to deal with the day to day administration which is more time consuming than most realize. My agencies earned every penny of the 50/50 split they took. I made more money working for agencies than I do being Indie for the amount of time and effort I invest. If you're going to do something, then do it right... cat

I did not want a parrot but the children loved it. A green winged macaw that was left behind with loved ones when I had to return to Canada. He arrived as an egg so it certainly was an adventure... cat

I have received some wonderful gifts... 1. The usual flowers, wine, chocolates, jewelery and cheese. 2. A coat during a winter that I didn't have one. 3. Shoes with matching nail polish. 4. A weekend trip for myself and my children. 5. A china cabinet. 6. A stuffed snuffleupagus and a NYCFF T shirt. 7. A luggage set. 8. A carpet/tapestry. (Still the most valuable possession I own) 9. A parrot 10. Toys galore. 11. Pepper spray. (more than one occasion) 12. An Asp. (retractable baton) 13. Electronics (tvs, stereos, etc) 14. An alarm clock. 15. Donations to my legal fund. The gift I treasure most from guests is... Input,advice and strategy from those whose true assets lie between their ears and have a life time of knowledge that they so willingly share with me when I need them to. You know who you are, I just want to say "THANK YOU!!!" cat

My gentle suggestion would be to tell her. If it was me, I would want to know. Her name is her brand and if she is smart she wants to protect it. No extras is a detail that will need to be clarified. Another option would be to post your own review and clarify it for her... cat

Darling MightyPen, Square to me is defined as a person who doesn't have even a toe in the underground world in which I exist. They know nothing of my reality except what they read in the newspaper or see on TV. They seldom speed, don't park illegally and wouldn't know what to do if put into a situation where there is more than a slight potential for danger; they don't have the street smarts or the awareness to understand the world I live in. Square people live in very safe, vanilla worlds with a house in the suburbs and believe they can achieve a Ward and June likeness if they just try hard enough and follow the rules. They live in a world where I don't blend and have quit trying which is why I don't accept those kinds of invitations... cat

Miss Aubrey, Do not feel dumb! You had the good sense to ask! Back in the day before CERB I sent a Valentines invitation to my guests and put all the addresses in the To: field. Needless to say I got my ass handed to me on the other board and the emails I got were positively hateful! I cried for days. The dumb thing is not to ask, there is no such thing as a stupid question... cat

This type of situation is my #1 downfall and Gabriella, I know exactly how you feel. I have made a very conscious effort this year to ensure new guests are out the door within a reasonable amount of time after their appointment is over but it is a challenge for me. The sad part is that every time it happens, I promise myself not to let it happen again but inevitably it does. What I haven't been able to figure out is that they know they were over their time considerably and yet seldom is there even an offer of compensation. I can count on one hand the gentleman who have slipped a little extra in the box on their way out nor is there any extra in the next visit envelope to say "thank you" for going over and above the call of duty for the last time. It leaves me with a more than sour taste in my mouth but my southern indoctrination makes it near impossible to just say "TIMES UP!!!!". My established guests are mainly retainer guests so they know the routine and respect it. I'm not sure what the solution is. Perhaps an alarm clock with an insanely loud buzzer? cat

How about toftt and post a reco! cat

I have severe reactions to the whitening systems and I rinse with the consumable aloe vera gel from Walmart. Just swish for about a minute and swallow! I use it every 2 hours until things feel better... cat

I have seen providers create a completely different alter ego that seem to be a polar opposite of who they are. Over the years I've learned to spot the ones that are simply bringing a facet of themselves out into the open and recognize the completely created providers because the fakes can't maintain the facade for long. For me, I entertain as myself. The woman who opens the door is the same woman that I am 24/7/365. There is no extra polish or presentation just because I have a guest over. My gentlemen get my genuine, often unedited opinions, thoughts, feelings and actions put into a visit. I have found that trying to split who I am between a personal and work life to be a bit undoing at times. I divide my time and keep specific work/personal hours but I am the same woman in my personal life as I am when I entertain. It makes life easier for me... cat

If requested in advance, absolutely! I have a guest that plays a "steal the panties" game. It started 6 years ago when I realized my panties had disappeared after he had left the first time we met. I TORE the room up looking for them and they had just vanished. I chalked it up to weirdness and assumed I wouldn't see him again, being a panty thief and all. When he booked a second appointment I planned on confronting him about the MIA panties but somehow I got sidetracked and forgot. When he left, my first visit panties where there but the second visit panties were missing! Every visit after that brought an invisible exchange of panties which continues to this day. Even if it has been months between visits, I always know I will see him again eventually because he has always has a pair to return... cat

I agree with Nicolette, the key is knowing what you are looking for and finding a provider that fits with you. I state I prefer clients over 40 but that is to avoid the... "you around" "I wanna git with you" Or my all time personal favorite - "u r hot 4 an old broad, u want 2 fuck a hot 26er?" emails. Approach your intended SP/MP with honesty about what you are looking for, respect, follow her booking procedures and you should be fine... cat

There are two ways to learn the sex trade. One is to jump in and learn as you go, the other is to go to work for an agency and learn the trade from the ground up. I feel one of the problems today is the deviation from our history of the game being "sold, not told". It might sound a little street but it is a golden rule. Sps handing out hard earned, dangerously learned or self taught information is like us handing out $100 bills to anyone who asks for one. Why would any SP that understands that knowledge is the most valuable asset she has, willingly hand it out to someone who we don't know? My advice would be to shit or get off the pot, don't expect a free hand out as one needs to earn the trust of providers first before expecting us to "give" you something as valuable as our inner wealth. cat

I've waited to weigh in here because I can understand the conundrum all too well and there is no easy answer. I faced this situation hundreds of times (literally) when I worked down south as a provider and an agency owner. Non black providers at home seldom wanted to service blacks and it was a challenge for me. There are reasons to numerous to imagine as to why they refused, the fact was that they did. As an agency owner I did my best to screen out potential issues by asking up front if a provider had an issue but more often than not, they would lie and when they were face to face with a client, they would find a reason to bail. The only solution I found was to work with her at addressing the issue. If there was a valid reason for her resistance (sexual assault, boyfriend rule, etc) then I would do my best to work around it and try to get her help to work thru the situation. If it was a basic bigotry then she was let go as I had neither the time nor inclination to try and change a belief system. cat

I agree with Miss Samantha wholeheartedly! She has (as always) said exactly what need to be said... I offer a 6 month "relaunch" plan to vetted guests, it's basically a life revamp for men who are re-entering the world after the loss of a SO, break up or other such situation. It is a customized plan to integrate into the world and I work with my guests on every aspect of their lives; social, emotional, physical, home life and future goals, etc. It is a very rigorous program and doesn't come cheap but the things in life worth having always have a price. I've developed this after years of coming across great guys that were stuck and I could see myself becoming a way of life for them. It was a genuine shame because as Miss Samantha so eloquently pointed out, we are a fantasty with a shocking reality and these men were worthy of another serious relationship which plainly wasn't me. I am a woman that loves a good, meaty project and now that I live in a condo, furniture refinishing is out so I needed something new to fill my time. These guests fit the criteria of a truly satisfying hobby that positively contributes to the quality of others experience. Perhaps you should look at hiring a Life Skills Coach. These skilled professionals do wonders for people trying to figure the world out... cat

Kudos for Max Luther for extending a hand of help if needed and backrubman for giving warning that at times help offered can be nefarious so be full of care. Max, it's a shame you are not in Ottawa, I have a machine in need of love and it isn't something that could get anyone into any trouble... cat
