Will Corona curtail your hiring?

[MartyB]

I'm seeing Arjun today. This issue is about transportation and getting to him or my other guy that I see. If it gets shut down I'll have to wait it out. I'm in NYC I'm hearing tons of rumours about next week.

[Ajac]

I am not sure how some people are going to stay afloat. People were having trouble making ends meet to begin with. I work for myself and I thought it would not effect me but I have had a couple jobs cancelled already as a result.

I was just getting ready to get a massage after finally catching up after the holidays. I guess we will have to just take a wait and see attitude.

Eliminating all kissing and tonguing above the neck.

That’s my plan

I'm here in NY and postponing this sinful habit for now. Lol. Be well everyone

I wish i could just stop this addiction altogether lol

[Mustang]

I'm in the middle of NYC and pausing until we get a better handle on the situation. I don't want to catch it, but if I did, I 400% wouldn't want to spread it unknowingly.

Postponing too...but one of my regulars will need some help to tide him through, so i‘ll probably help him and use the credit for a “rainy day”

I have thought about that as well. I have one particular regular who I am definitely going to give him something extra when I return.

If he is your regular masseur, why not give it to him now , instead of when you return? Now is when he probably needs it, since his business is probably down. Then tell him you have a credit when you do return. That would be a nice gesture, something our regular masseurs need at this time now that their business has slumped. They have rent to pay, food to buy, etc. An advance payment would help them out.

I have purchased some gift cards from the supermarkets and sent them to a few of my hires. Not expecting anything in return, just remember being extremely short on funds and being hungry during my college years (and it was not spent on booze). I was most thankful for the occasional friend who would notice and buy me a meal.

That's a good point. Thanks for that feedback.

Prepaying for a session is such a great idea. Thanks to everyone for suggesting it. I just reached out to my regular provider, and he said he hasn't had any work in two weeks! Definitely going to send him some advance money to help him get through this.

[Richardbl]

It looks like all masseurs don't have money. Some of them do 6 to 8 hours massages in day.

It would be not smart to save some money ....

[alexslaveboy]

I'm definitely not looking for anyone new

If I really get the itch for some muscles, I would reach out to a regular for a meetup

 

However, I am probably just going to wait and see what happens in the next few weeks so a short hiatus will be in effect

I am going to act on this tomorrow. Thanks for planting the seed.

It's been a while since I've hired anyone, but it's probably in everyone's best interest to curtail it, for the time being.

With all of the unknowns about contagion it seems wise to be extra careful about hiring guys you don’t know. My go to guys are fanatics about hygiene anyway and are just as concerned about clients. For me the best option is to put a hold on unknowns and just talk about it with your regulars. Communication and mutual respect wins the day.

[+ Pensant]

I asked one of my regulars if he’d like an N95 respirator and he was very grateful. At a local spot yesterday an array of friends and acquaintances got together, mainly younger. We all elbow bumped. I’m not sure I’ll be going out much in the next few weeks, though. I’ve got a pile of unread books to wade through.

Thank you. I needed to read this.

I agree with you, carlos45. Is it that difficult to spend a few weeks without being sexually active?

[+ Pensant]

With an active imagination and a strong, lubricated right hand, you can satisfy that urge in less than ten minutes.

I totally stopped going for the past 1 week and not going in next 3 weeks. why to take risk? just use your hand.

Just my luck to have found a hot guy who presses all the right buttons? Ah well just have to hope he's still advertising when things get back to 'normal.'

I’m part of the at-risk (over 50s) population so not hiring until things calm down. Recession might come over, so better to save money for necessary goods and services. I think cautions are mostly on our side given that most escorts (30 and younger) are not at high risk. They should still have some clients in their 40s or 30s and be ok. With social distancing, Onlyfans, JustforFans, porn websites and the like must be seeing some additional income during quarantine time.

They aren't high risk from a mortality perspective, but they catch it and spread it like anyone else. Even worse, since symptoms for them tend toward flu or cold like, they might mistake what they have and carelessly spread it. Social distancing is critical right now and it isn't just for people over 60 or with compromised immune systems or other chronic illnesses that make them vulnerable.

 

One saving grace, maybe, is that people who are asymptomatic appear to very rarely shed. Which is why checking temperatures became a rapid response action to identify and isolate suspect cases. If you start checking temps, 97.9 Fahrenheit is the better average for a modern human in a developed nation like the USA. In other words, 98.7 is a very mild fever.

 

China is finally not fucking around and what they're doing is very harsh by Western standards, but they do not want more economic damage from this novel coronavirus. If Americans don't take the call to socially distance seriously, we will probably have national guard deployments and forced quarantines if things get bad enough given how intense the panic has been so far. It's finally forcing politicians to act and with a national emergency, our authoritarian president has very broad powers.
