Why are so many people just awful at communicating but are in a business where communication is the most important aspect of their business?
Automate, use ai, hire a booker, i don't know just do anything but what you are doing if you cannot efficiently and promptly communicate.

But also, hiring an assistant/booker isn’t cheap.
Most men complain when they receive automated responses because it feels cold and not personal.
AI sucks most of the time.
If she’s not answering right away she’s with someone else, if it takes forever to reply she must be booked and busy so I would assume she’s worth the wait

You’d hate to see her text while you’re in a session with her right?

LC, when do you ever find the time to work, you are always here starting threads, answering peoples questions and finding threads for people. You know the board better then most members.

Can the pet peeves be about anything or just this hobby?

Because I absolutely despise people who clap during a airplane landing...

Regular peeves:

Slow walkers.

Being from NYC, walking single file down St Catherine because of the construction makes me really want to hurt someone. I was stuck behind this couple last night for a whole block who was casually strolling and I just walked right through them.

Hobby pet peeve:

agencies who put SPs on the schedule even though they're unbookable

SPs who cancel last minute

In-calls that are far from the metro

-when my second SOG is moments away…and suddenly I lose power coz Maria mentioned the time will end soon

-sp who won’t let me play with her hair while she plays with my balls

I disagree a little bit. Booking is an art and finding a good booker is not hard at all.
I had a booking service that i ran as a side business for 3 years taking appointments for tattoo parlors and then we expanded into dentist offices and lawn care services and eventually into snow removal services home service vet care, massage parlors and also beauty salons.
The cost was 2% to 9% of the service cost and our repeat customer return/renewal rate was 94%.
I sold this side business during covid and you can find similar booking/appointnent scheduling services quite easily.
Business optimisation increases revenue, reduces stress & increases quality of life, it is not a random expense and it pays for itsself (our data proved that 100% of clients that used our services improved their business and their client return rates increased my multiiples)

People who take a long time to reply to text messages, or worse, who reply inconsistently: sometimes rapidly, sometimes not.

In the context of sex work it's probably a little different considering the intimate (and dangerous) aspect of our job. Bookers have to screen clients on top of managing the booking process itself, and they're at risk for legal repercussions, too. So the price reflects this context and I never heard of an escort booker or assistant charging 9% or less

Most annoying pet peeve is unanswered texts. That really drives me over the edge since that is so insulting and disrespectful. It also means that you are unimportant and not even worth a response. A text should not take more then 3 hours to respond to.

Next pet peeve is slow drivers on the passing lane, even when I am tailgating him for several minutes he still does not get it to move out of the way.

Last pet peeve is ppl that always says I dont care when you are discussing things. Like what do you care about? I find it very insulting.

Yeah well there's been a couple plane landings where I'd have blown the pilot out of gratitude lol.

That's better than clapping

lmao have you ever had to look for one yourself? Like are you a SP using a pseudonym?

It’s not like hiring Ginette to be your office secretary. It takes special skills and you’re somewhat responsible for the SPs safety. Like @Julia Sky said the nature of this job seriously influences how much they’re charging us.

Another English language pet peeve : "peoples"

People doesn't take a s. It's already the plural form of "person", technically. The only time you'd use an s at the end is if you're referring to more than one distinct ethnic group ("the peoples of Canada and Vietnam" for example).

Being called babe or hon.
It makes you look like the lady leaning on a lamp post in the street, definitely not someone I want to see.
I have a name just like you do, use it.
