keeping track of time.

[arnie]

Who is responsible for keeping tack of the time of a session?   I recently hired a guy.  When I booked and gave him a 30 minute time of my arrival, he said no problem as long as we were set on the duration, so I figured he would watch the time closely, OK.   I have hired many and some do keep more closely to the agreed to time than others, more in the time before and after the action starts, like 5-10 minutes of chat while getting ready,  dressing after etc.   I don't know about others but I have always felt that the escort was more in charge of the pacing of the session, particularly the 60 to 90 minute sessions that I book where the action will generally follow the usual sequence.    I saw him adjust his cell phone and place it bedside.  When it went off, at what I thought was probably but I was not sure,  the end of the 90 minutes, he turned it off and continued to aggressively play.   I did shortly end the play mainly because my time schedule did not allow for longer, but I got the feeling that he would have played even longer.  When somehow time came up , he said it was when the phone went off.  For me this is a luxury that I can barely afford and did not plan on and could not tip him.    

Now I have booked him again and while I do plan on giving him a few extra bucks if we go over    But what do you do when the escort obviously and knowingly  is just giving you extra time without mentioning it?  It is not like he said our time had ended,  what do you want to do?   Am I really supposed to pay him the rate for the unasked for extra time, not that I do not appreciate it.  It's not hours, but maybe 15 or 20 minutes.

Not a provider, but may I add my 2c? Both the provider and I are responsible adults. We are both responsible. 😉 That being said, i always ask if a tip will be okay when we do go over - want to be respectful of their time too.
 

If it is a provider that is meticulous about time keeping, I do assume that the clock will keep running.

Really 15 to 20 minutes over doesn’t seem such an issue unless you have a hard stop. I don’t say “right, times up!” at exactly the time he booked if it’s an out call. I could understand if he’s still going half hour beyond the scheduled time, but 15 minutes is just a rounding error lol.

I usually ask if the client has a definite finish time at the start. Then you know and can plan because it feels mean to end exactly on time, especially if things at that point haven’t come to a natural close. And don’t feel obligated to pay extra, the agreed rate is the agreed rate.

I think the notion that you can accurately plan a session down to the minute is insane and it ruins the mood.  I find the best escorts and clients understand that there's a +/- 10-15 minutes that just comes with the territory.  If I have a great time and it's 50 minutes, why would I whine about that?  Some escorts will cuddle it out, which is nice and all, but at this point I've got what I came for.  However, if there's an abrupt ending at 60 minutes, that's not going to lead to repeat business.  If an escort runs over, I'll tip extra for their courtesy; however, a good escort would be more interested in the repeat business or positive experience than getting paid for every single minute.

I say it's the provider's job to keep track of time.  He's the professional in the room.  Your only job is to relax and have fun.

Wouldn't he have asked you for it. if he thought you owed him more?  Seems like he gave you a little more time because stopping at the exact time would have been awkward.  I have a very good sense of time, so I just know when there is 10 or 15 minutes left.   I like to chat with a guy while I take my time showering and dressing, so I make sure there's time for that.  I just happen to be a proactive client, but I think it's up to the provider to manage the session flow.  I think I have only made one hire where the provider called "time's up" at exactly the minute when my time was up.  I only hired him that once, even though he followed up with me over and over.

Time is Provider's responsibility, 100%

I agree with the pros. It's the provider's duty to keep track of time. I always do an extra $20 almost always but if a provider demands more money because we went "over" that's really on him not me. It had happened a couple of times and in one case he got kind of aggressive with me. But all I had was the money I had so 🤷‍♂️. 

In all cases, I am very upfront with time and money that we both agree on. I would like 2 hours at $500 or whatever. That's what I pay at the end unless we mutually agree otherwise during the session. Not at the end because oops it went over.

Thanks for your input.  It was clear that it was for 90 minutes.  When the phone went off, I knew that we had been at it for close to the time but I did not know if he set it for like 75 minutes to ease into ending.   But there are some subtle but clear signals that our time together is ending, lets wrap this up.  I have hired more than enough guys to not only pick them up but have an eye out for them so to speak.  But here when the alarm went off, his vibe was lets get back at it, where were we.  If I was not hiring him again I really would not be concerned, but this might be an ongoing thing and I just wanted to be clear on this matter.
