Witnessed a pretty sad thing the last few weeks.

I have children.

I also happen to tour a great deal.

Turning my phone onto silent for an hour or two during a session is no different than turning to Airplane mode during a 2-4 hour flight.

My phone is always on silent. There is only one exception to this, and that is when I have an overnight. Anyone who schedules an overnight with me is told that I will be disappearing at a set time to go call home for 10-15 minutes. If they have a problem with that-- we simply either alter the schedule around my block of time, or we don't meet.

No judgment here for those who do things differently-- but I'm of the mind that I leave my children with competent adults... if something goes so sideways that they can't handle it-- then I'm not likely to be able to fix it over the phone, either. Originally Posted by GracePreston

Some of us remember how life was like without cell phones There are a lot of helicopter parents.

Well stated and thoughtful.

If there was an emergency would you at least fulfill your obligation to get him off? No you would not. Would you give him a full refund? No you would not. Would you give him a free session since you screwed up his plans? No you would not. Like I wrote before, unless the man gives you permission shut your damn phone off and don't check it or you won't get paid or tipped. Got it???? Quit being lazy and put an emergency plan in place so you can send somebody else. That's called being a responsible adult.

Yes I would give him a full fucking refund or a free session BECAUSE I am a compassionate adult, and not just out to take every dude's cash. An emergency plan doesn't replace MOM. Now please STFU and go visit another AMP - I'm sure plenty of guys are anxiously awaiting your next review.

This. This is why I personally choose to do things the way I do them. We all survived as a society for many a year without being able to be reached at any time and at any place.

As I said earlier-- no judgment from me on the matter. In my case, even if they called me-- I couldn't meet them at the hospital. When I work, I'm generally 300 miles or more from home and there is quite literally nothing I can do about that. We all have to make choices and decisions based on what we feel is best for the lives we each choose to live.

Side note to Treetop-- if there was an emergency situation and I had to cut a session short-- yes, I would refund. In fact, I have done so in the past.

I will go back to my ATF spas. SOONER THEN LATER!!! Why? Because unlike the escorts it's not just about the money. They truly care about some of their customers. If they didn't they sure as hell wouldn't text me to come see them, take them to eat or run errands with them. They would just wait till I returned on my own. Hence the reason I tip them very well. I'm sure there is IOP with others but sometimes it's genuine and real. They also wouldn't cut the session short with some lame ass excuse because they were unprofessional and didn't have SEVERAL emergency back up plans. Perhaps you gals could learn from them. RULE #1 - Finish your job if you want to be paid or tipped or service us free if your so called emergency screwed up MY plans. Is that so damn hard to understand?????

spot on treetop.

Treetop bringing da heat

I would think if they truly cared about you and not your money they would give it to you for free and take you out to dinner..but what do I know Im just a silly hooker
