I actually require all new clients to do this, smokes for example, for a legit and very legal reason. One which I will not openly discuss on this forum. I always let it be known that I will explain why I require this in person but never over the phone. But my rule is if you can't do this to appease me I can not see you. **If anyone wants to know why I do this I'll discuss it privately**
However to the whole grab condoms thing. I believe as a provider we should be prepared. I have never, EVER asked one of my guys to stop and grab condoms. But that's just me.

As long as you're upfront about it that's fine. Just don't text 5 minutes before the appointment time and throw out this extra requirement. That's the annoying part.
Guys, really?
Are you looking for the "Mechanical Ho Experience" here?
You know the one where you are more worried about 10 bucks than the experience you are about to have?
The MHE (Mechanical Ho Experience) comes with your choice of sheet color with a hole cut in it, like they did way back when, so you can just access the hole and see nothing else. The sheet will be added to your invoice.
Perhaps if some (small %) of you started treating providers like humans you wouldn't be so offended by something so silly.
I am floored that hobbiests are bitching about a 5 min stop at a gas station and 10 bucks OR less? Maybe it's time for a new hobby?
Note - most of my regulars show up with ice cold Fiji water...because they know the sweet 4 dollar gesture will likely make my little heart melt for an hour or so. Then they get one of the fucking best session of their life.

I never carry spare cash. I have 20s for the appointment that I acquire in a certain untrackable way. Now I'm being asked to stop and pick up something and I have no cash and might find it difficult to explain a debit card purchase in that part of town.
I live in BFE so takes me 45-60 minutes to get to most providers. I have my GPS, I try to leave to account for any traffic, midway thru I get a text that I'm not supposed to read or reply to while driving. Maybe I have to pull over to open it only to see you're asking me to stop to get you an overpriced bottle of water somewhere. Now I have to figure out where to stop, what that will do for my time of arrival, and wonder if I'm 10 minutes late if that will cut into my session time, I've been around long enough to know there have been so many threads on that exact topic.
But overall it's just annoying. You're not my girlfriend, we are not dating. Without trying to sound like an asshole (probably too late), you are providing a service and I'm paying for that service. That's the reality of it. That does not mean I expect a MHE because I don't want to stop for supplies. And that does not mean I think any less of you as a person.
I will be very clean, I will show up on time, I will be very nice and pleasant, I will pay you for your service and I will leave and not bother you until I want to see you again.
