TCB also means with regard to the hobby: Taking care of business. Meaning you answer emails, screen and help others screen and return calls in a professional manner.

When I was a moderator, I heard it all the time. Now that I am not, I still hear it a lot.Give the lady a break. I know one who has a guy she told to take a hike who texts her repeatedly. If you are doing this, STOP. If you sent her a text 5 min ago and she has not responded, then sending 15 more is NOT going to make her happy. I cannot count the number of phones I have seen fly because of this. Continuously asking the same question, Stop. "Are you ready yet?" every 5 minutes is NOT going to get her to go faster, I promise.....

Sorry, just passing the message along...

Not from my experience, in fact, most do not return calls. I've scratched countless names from my list based upon that ... and I never call back. Originally Posted by Tiger Woods

I guess most of us have experienced the mad texter and phone blow ups. It is inappropriate and inconsiderate. Unfortunately there are some people, (not whom I'd consider a true hobbyist), who want what they want when they want it and act as if there is no excuse you weren't sitting and waiting for their every contact. I read a post in a thread a while back where a guy said we should not have SO's. LOL

Why wouldn't you ladies just get a hobby phone and turn it off when you don't want to be contacted?

Fact is, I've never had an inappropriate contact from a provider. Thank you, ladies. And I try to respect their time by being reasonable on my end but reasonable is sooo subjective.

It its ideal state, the hobby is a wonderful, intimate, romantic fantasy fulfilled. In reality, it can be a real snake pit. I recall my earliest emails with a provider, her 'sig line' was "Be safe". I thought that was an odd choice. But after a bit of time, I better understand her choice of words.

if you wouldn't want some nut showing up out of the blue why take a chance with guys comming where husband or kids are. also if husband is not ok with what you do you should never take a chance of clients / husband running into each other for everybodys sake

none of my business..i get what your saying..its annoying.. i guess look at it this way.. atleast your phone is ringing..some girls phones aren't and they come here to rant about that.. you have a "good" problem sorta in a weird way.. lol

however.. i do wonder why your 17yr old daughter would even be at the place your clients would know to come to in order to see you by your alias? thats peculiar to me.. i would never have my kids at my incall where strange men come to..just me tho Originally Posted by DeAnna Luv
