Whether it be Thanksgiving or the Christmas holidays, its always a busy time for about everybody. With that in mind, a regular client asked if I would have any time on Thanksgiving day for a booking. He's a regular when he's in town seeing family or on business. He said he would add a bonus since "time for all on this day is at a premium". I hadn't planned bookings on Thanksgiving because of time with family and friends and my desire to rest a bit. In the end, we weren't able to make it happen because of his schedule. Not a problem. So he is rescheduling for Saturday, but said he still owes me the bonus because he promised it. I told him he owes me nothing beyond my basic rate, but he said he'd feel bad if he doesn't provide it. We then had a conversation about how both viewed it. He said it would be a "holiday bonus" for good service. I appreciate it. I assume many providers here have had something similar. I hope you all had a very nice Thanksgiving and a good weekend ahead.

It was a great time and a lot of good food. Enjoyed time with friends and family. I hope it was a good day for all!

I would say I have never been ask by a potential client what my politics are, certainly not as any sort of criteria for hiring. I have had political conversations, but they are always made by the client and if they happen to be different than my own, I keep my conversation limited. This goes for all my business dealings, not just my work as an escort. If the client DOES have the same political views that I do, I still tend to be very moderate (which I am anyway) and let him talk if he chooses. It is his time and I can be a good listener.

I certainly would enjoy attending the event. My largest concern is the timing with conclusion of tax season underway. Certainly include me as a potential attendee.

One of my restaurant haunts is a local Mexican place with some great wait staff. They always remember what drink I order and most of the time what food I generally focus on as I limit the amount and calories I'm eating. I finally asked how some of them remember what items I tend to order. One was finally honest and they said my name and list is on a sheet in back. They said they keep track of all their regulars and their favorite orders. Makes sense!

This kind of thing still sound kind of odd for me. Probably most providers have seen or experienced this kind of thing before, but I haven't, largely due where I grew up and currently live. For those who do, certainly much to consider, safety, security and of course the cops.

Looks great and I concur, US should be represented for sure.

Sounds like the "providers" are not providing! lol

A limited number of people know that I am a provider. When I care to share what I do and why, I do have friends who are genuinely interested in hearing about it. Perhaps it it is like “experiencing it” for themselves. I share info about it and do answer questions.

I would say #2: Besides concern of potential legal issues, all phones should be banned from the locker room period.

At this time of year, I literally have a "green thumb", especially on my right hand with all the outdoor work. Looking awesome out there. Enjoying all the ripe tomatoes and other veggies from the garden.

I like "Red Lobster" anything. We are fortunate in Kansas that our Red Lobster restaurants haven't closed and continue to do really well. Always enjoy going. Never have tried the "endless shrimp", but I have a friend who loves it. I do the "chocolate smoothie" while I'm there, its the best!

Well if I'm with a client, if he wants music, I certainly have no objection. I think the vast majority of clients I service prefer no music to music. While I think music can inhibit conversation, some clients aren't into talking, but "doing", so it all works.

Welcome back to the site, good conversation here and a lot of varied discussion.

Well as a provider, all I can speak to is "clients who erupt about politics". It holds no matter what kind of business relationship it is, professional association, sales or another. Never good to talk extensively about politics and if you can't move past someone's opinion that is different than your own, you shouldn't be in a service or business relationship. I have clients that have both left and right sided viewpoints, conversation is generally limited on those topics when I am working. That doesn't mean that I don't chat with a client whose views I share. Never wise to place your political views above the service you are providing (if a provider).
