I guess our time isn't important

I agree with Chief and Winn, Lord forbid that we are a little bit late, they would crucify us, but they can be as late as they want and expect us to not be upset, it's a double standard for sure.

If they’re not professional I just put them on the no fucking way list and go to the next one. I don’t waste any daylight on them.

Gosh Chief, sounding like your feathers are ruffled.
Of course, I can only speak for myself.
1. If I am out of town or with family my work phone rarely gets looked at.
2. My appointments run back to back. It can be very difficult to answer texts in between changing linens and freshening up before the next client arrives.
3. Disgression is very important. If I was not able get back to a client in a timely fashion, chance are, I will not respond. Receiving a text from me at that time could be inconvenient and troublesome for some clients.
4. Sometimes I am trying to verify a client and the other girl cannot get back to me in a timely fashion.
5. Other times, I get so many texts, a messages, some clients messages may get buried and I loose track of who said what and who wanted what and when... It can get very confusing. Meanwhile, I am rushing to get ready for the next fellow.

However, I do concur, that after making an appointment and still having to wait hours on her, is very bad business practice. It is disrespectful. Honor yourself and choose better.

Sometimes, in trying to accommodate several clients, I may ask if booked clients are flexible with their time. If they cannot, then they keep their original booking. If they can, then everyone is happy!��

I send this message only to give a better picture of what is happening on the other side of bookings.

I hope this sheds some light.

Change how you see the world and the world will see you differently.
This is an example, I texted a provider once who posted at 7 pm and she said she was available,I said ok when can you come over, and nothing until 10 pm, and I said well I guess you weren't available, she said she could come over after her kids went to sleep, this is after saying she was available 3 hrs earlier and could come over,I understand they have families and kids, but she posted incall and outcall on her ad and said she could come over. If we did that we would never hear the end of it,I ended up not seeing her. This is why I think it costs themselves some money sometimes.

Yes stuff like this does most definitely cost them money cause you won't repeat with them if you had a good experience with them plus when other clients find out about these actions they are likely to see someone else
