I have been in this business 3.5 years. I love the hobby. But it is nights like this that test the love of this hobby. Had some bad and strange things happen over the past 3.5 years. But I have always been able to deal with it as part of the hobby. But this is just a little hard to take.
Have been to KC quite a few times. Love the guys, providers and area. One of my favorites touring places. But the last two days have me scratching my head.
Had a gent contact me yesterday who wanted to know when I would be in KC. Actually wanted to see me last night. But alas I couldn't. So he wanted tonight and wanted a multi hr apt. Checked into a hotel on North side of KC since my regular place was full. Had an apt. In the mean time this hobbist contacted me and asked for 7pm tonight. But he asked me a favor. Wanted me to change locations and get a place closer to him. I was happy to accommodate. I always try to work with clients whenever I can. He even picked out the hotel. I was able to get the room. So I pack up from my current location and move 40 min from my original destination. Got the room and text him to let him know. He said see you at 7. We text and he even called. All was good. His references checked out and all was good with him so I had no problem working with him on the location. At 5 min to 7 he calls and tells me he is 5 min out. Gave him the room number and he said great see you soon. 5....10...20 mins go by. I am texting him asking where he is. I hear nothing but crickets. Finally at 735pm he text me and said he was scared. WTF.....I was stunned. I even changed locations for him. What the hell was he scared of. I did tell him he at least owed me the money for the hotel that he picked out. Still have heard nothing.
Remember this gent contacted me. I didn't reach out to him. I put all I have in the hobby. Try to treat all my clients with the utmost respect. I give it all I have and more. I try to stay aware of the clients time, schedules, etc.. And don't understand when the hobbyist has no regard for my time. What makes this even worse is that I had 2 potential apts from other gents and I turned them down. I always have plan A. Never have a plan B...C...or D. I keep my apts. That may sound stupid to some....but to me....it is everything that I keep my word. It is important that the client knows that I am setting time aside for them. They are going to have my full attention.
