Would not Burger King be a better anology?

This, however, is even more frustrating:
In my own experience, I have set up dates with verified providers, made sure the references were all squared away, then when I have left for a trip of an hour or so to meet my date, and try to make a final confirmation en route (yes, I live in no-man's land), all communication ceases. That baffles me. I would love some providers' insight as to why that happens. Originally Posted by politebluefish

There are numerous reasons why a provider does not respond and I totally understand that. All I am saying is if a provider wonders why a hobbyist passes her by after she responds may want to check how long was the time between initial contact and providers response.Why do I get the feeling this is not his only Handle? Anyone else get the feeling?
Take a break people, calm down....And yes my experience..... Originally Posted by Travel4ever74

I can't speak for all of us but I will say that if I contact a provider by the method she wishes or if no suggestion than thru he I expect a response in a reasonable amount of time but no more than 24 hours.. If not planning a future appt you better be responding in minutes not hours because we are interested now not hays from noy. Personally, I may contact a few providers for an appointment and the one I decide to see is usually the one who responds in a timely manner and is personable(in other words not one liners)
Don't be surprised when you lose an appointment when you do not respond for hours.
Just a suggestion. Be safe and have fun Originally Posted by Travel4ever74

Yes.I feel you are correct when you state, "prompt, efficient communication is valued." However, as the lady above stated, ladies who take care of their business, do provide as prompt communication as is available, without allowing quality of their services provided to be interrupted by another.
Women that don't "take care of business" lose out on opportunities.
Is it a good reminder? Particularly for some that are having a slow post-holidays, bad weather January? Yes.
On the other hand if you have plenty of clients, feel free to ignore him.
Two points worth considering:
1) The women replying to this have to reply in a certain way on a coed board to "protect their brand" -- of course they are busy, have more clients than they know what to do with, always are great at responding, they aren't BP gals,etc.
2) Guys at all price points to pay attention to how prospective companions "take care of business." That doesn't mean they need to accept same day rush appointments, but prompt, efficient communication is valued. Originally Posted by atlcomedy
