So, I'll ask. What is the purpose of references? I would imagine it is to find out; 1) LEO, and 2) safety(?). Are there other reasons I'm unaware of?
I'm curious because I can't think of a way to reasonably navigate your criteria in order to see you; if I don't currently have references, assuming those references meet your needs.
I get that you have to be comfortable and of course you can do what you like. I just don't see how a person gets from "A" to Gemma? I could attempt to build up references but how do I know the references I have are the references you accept? I must be missing something.
I WONT accept a lady as a reference:
I know she is a 'managed' lady
I think she may be a 'managed' lady
She is a high volume provider
She sees newbies regularly
Her screening process is much too simple or inadequate or just weird
Her behavior is tacky and/or shady
She has had more than one negative review
She has a 'new' provider friend all the time
She posts on BP frequently
