The good thing is that Rayne obviously thinks quickly on her feet, and worked around the communications. I agree with Mod, negotiating will only land you in hot water, and if she doesn't hang up on you intially she will have lingering "grrrrrr"s in her throat. The way to turn the growls into purrs is to show up with the $$ and ask for the hour. Bring wine and then just be your sweet self... Catherine

Maybe we should video tape it? Very interesting thought... Catherine

You guys are too funny! Yes she does men and really seems to enjoy doing them! Pun intended, she is very open minded and we have discussed my profession at length and her understanding, warmth and caring really struck me initially. Once I got to know her I realized she is not judgemental in any way, just really sweet. Catherine Laser sharks? Hmmmmm

YOU'RE ON!!!!!!!! Kisses!!! Cat:-D

Went to see my Laser tech tonight and asked if she would like to service CERB members (she knows what I do) and she said DEFINITELY! Please don't negotiate price, she is 50% cheaper than any other game in town but she does an excellent job. Just PM me for her number... Catherine

Absolutely! I don't do phones, but when my bb hums and I see a email from a fav, it sends shivers everywhere! Catherine

The wonderful thing about CERB is that everyone is entitled to their opinion and I think you raise some valid points. The last six months has been the most hectic I have had and on occasion I have had to reschedule. It just about kills me to do it because I never schedule an appointment unless I fully intend to be there in mind, body and soul. I know my guests look forward to our visits and they deserve my undivided attention. I would rather reschedule than not be able to give 100%. Life happens tho and people should always take the time to let the other party know. I agree that respect is a two way street and it needs to be shown on every level when we deal with everyone we cross paths with whether an SP, guest or store clerk. Paiges client very well may have been having a really bad day. His comments were delivered in a way that rubs people the wrong way, it happens. Rarely do I have someone who is a genuine asshole. I have encountered a few in my time, but most who walk thru the door with an attitude are simply good people who need some time and attention. That's why they come to me. We are all prone to mistakes, it's taking the mistake and making it personal is where the real mistake lies in my opinion... Catherine

I agree that sharing knowledge is important, but CERB isn't the medium to use. It needs to be done privately. Putting information out about LE will not bode well for any of us, it will simply make all on this board a target. They may only be after the poorly run agencies, but it is well within their authority to target any and all of us. They will not appreciate their movements being posted or discussed on a public form and I assure you they are on here and watch what is said by whom. If there are signs we are getting organized and monitoring their behavior publicly they will come after whoever is involved with it. It will be viewed as interference. It is like taking a stick to a hornets nest... Catherine

Funny you should mention a habit, because I was just thinking about that! What fun! Catherine

Gentlemen, I made a mistake!!!! I posted a link that I thought was the 20/20 segment, but it was a simple video. Here is the link. Please watch it, more than once if possible... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Utpam0IGYac&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8F9CaPyQz8&feature=related Catherine

Just smile and say shhhhhhhh gently with a wink. We get the message and there is no offense taken. Most guests like chatter so you just need to let us know what you like... Catherine

This is an excellent suggestion. Talk to her about it and ask her directly. Tell her you enjoy the conversation, explain how often your finances allow you to visit her and she'll let you know either by telling you straight out or just easing up on the chat... Catherine

I'm with Brandi on this, I don't know how most of it works. Chat boogles and putting pictures up is beyond me. Most providers are people people. We can talk to anyone about anything, but try to remember which button to push in which order is sometimes more than we care to learn. If I can't rub its back and give it a head massage to get it to do what I need done, then forget it! But I love that it's all here, and I am slowly figuring it out... Catherine

Dearest latteur, Your thinking is clear, finding someone you connect with is important and all that matters is you're happy! Catherine

I think it's important to realize that if someone hasn't used the services of a provider they may be unaware of the considerations expected. We also need to consider what this man's income is. A man making $300-400 per week would consider $300 a tremendous amount of money. I had a client down south that was a cook in a diner. He was special, had a mental age of about 16-17yrs old, but was in his early 40's. We met where he worked. His take home was $185/wk. He would park his car for the summer and take the bus to save insurance money and worked extra shifts to afford our visits. I dropped my fee so it would work. I appreciated spending time with him because genuinely valued my efforts. I will never forget the sacrifices he made so he could spend time with me. I would rather take a $ from a man who really relished spending time with me than $$$$$ from someone with no clue. Yes, this is a business, but I get so much more than money from my guests and how does one put a value on that? I think it's important not to judge, there are so many aspects to peoples lives that we do not understand. Latteur was honest, didn't bombard every SP with emails and then get a bad attitude. He came here, asked for help and then moved forward. I give him credit for the willingness to ask, not take offense to the advice offered and then take the advice and put it to use. Really, this is an ideal example of what this board is all about... Catherine

It is misunderstood. When I saw this piece, my heart stopped. The younger girl is a dead ringer for my youngest daughter, they could be twins. I can't imagine living in a body that doesn't coincide with my instinctive gender. Gender reassignment has made tremendous advancements but still runs a huge risk of eliminating the possibility of achieving orgasm. I also can't fathom making the decision to correct my gender at the cost of my sexual energy. I think that Aylhins willingness to embrace the unique aspects of who she is, stay true to the perfection of her physical creation is a testament to the strength of the human spirit. Acceptance is key in these situations. I am so very glad that the community here has been so willing to discuss and interact. Thank you all... Catherine

As I sit and read these posts it occurs to me that some may not understand what a transgender is. The terms transgender, transexual, and transvestite are interchanged but are often misunderstood and used incorrectly. Until 8 years ago I didn't know the difference. Then I spent some time with transgender teen girls and really had a chance to see that these children are truly amazing people that will one day grow up and join our society and it is never an easy road for them. I think Aylhin falls into this category. The youtube link is a little long. It is not funny, it will not make you laugh or giggle. But if you take the time to watch it, you just may understand a little more about the incredible people we are blessed to meet in this experience we call life....

Darling Jasmine, You do not need to explain. You run your establishment with the strictest of rules for a reason. If you feel someone is compromising your hard earned reputation it is your duty to protect it and your guests. I have dealt with this issue. Sticky fingers is a enormous problem and is very seldom limited to the company till. It would ruin a guests day to find something missing after a visit to your club so in my opinion you should not have to justify or explain your reasons to anyone. Protecting your guests and establishment always take precedence. Keep up the fantastic work... Catherine

I really enjoyed the response this thread has recieved. For many of the regular posters this is not a realm they considered exploring and I for one am glad that Aylhin popped up on here. I have numerous clients that I know would enjoy her company and attributes and the open nature of CERB allows the curious to explore the options. Congratulations to those that took advantage of the opportunity, life is too short to miss a single one! Catherine

Darling Dummpy, There are few men who can pull off another birthday the way you do! You are truly exceptional in every way. Don't change a thing! I hope all your birthday wishes come true and you smile for the entire coming year... Catherine

It's important to realize that the authorities in Canada are willing to listen and you can contact them without hesitation. There is a huge demand for these locations and we need to stand up for those that are victimized by this demand. If you need anything, let me know... Catherine

My list of "must sees" is short, but she is on it! Catherine

I have had the opportunity to visit CMJ a couple of times now, and I love it. The ladies are charming, talented and just a treat to be around. I have yet to lay eyes on a lady there that I wouldn't welcome a touch from! I hope the gentlemen in Ottawa know how lucky they are! Catherine

I really appreciate the input here, these are all very valid posts. Back in the day I was taken advantage of with evening socials that were suppose to be work and then the envelope was light. They understood before hand the requirements. I would end up feeling resentful because I had little ones at home I would have rather been with and had I known I wasn't going to be compensated I would not have accepted. But as time goes on circumstances change, we change as people. When I arrived in Canada I decided to embrace the freedom I had forced on me and take advantage of the opportunity to really get to know those I found interesting. I distinctly remember the first gentleman I invited over for a glass of wine, just because. It confused the hell out of him until he wrapped his brain around it. We are still great friends to this day. Where he is located has a direct impact on where I like my location to be. Neither of us should drive after an evening with wine involved! The bottom line is to talk to your provider about the details if she seems inclined to spend time outside the playroom. If she genuinely enjoys the downtime with you, there will be no fee unless work is involved. And I will reiterate...if unplanned playtime happens, compensate her for it. If you don't, she will put you on the "freebie" list and things will change between you. I avoid interacting with those on my freebie list more actively than I do my no show list... Catherine

Darling Spike, Welcome to our delightfully bent little corner of the world! From one transplant to another, Ottawa is the city equivalent of... "cold hands...warm heart" Warm up to it and it will most definitely warm up to you! Enjoy CERB and all it has to offer! Catherine
