Well if this was a Friday night event I would have no problem.... but going to calling hours hung over....just not classy at all. Bump it up a day and there will be no buzzing.... you'll meet the bitch named Brooke :P

Ohhh but I must warn you all now, I don't have Blonde Hair and I have never had Blue Eyes..... but I am a dark brown hair lady with eyes that change from hazel to green.... to deeper brown depending on day... Originally Posted by BrookeButtons

No... Saturday would not be good, Sunday I have callilng hours. I was saying that tonight would be the only night I am free for this. Plus Saturday I am learning my swing with golf. So excited to get on the course!!!

Well as a few guys where planing to meet tonight(its still a go) But I opened the door at the last minute. I can understand that.

I do tend to plan on the fly. So if goes well maybe the holiday weekend coming up. Or another weekend before the holiday rush.

LOL I wish I lived near a golf coarse. "Lets make a Deal" after you broke one of my windows. Have fun. keep your head down and follow threw. That's about all I know about golf. I know many here enjoy it. But I would rather sailboat racing. Better known as watching the grass grow. LOL

I learned a thing or two about sailboating from a friend of mine. He races them on the Bay....

I don't know much about golf either, but I am learning and can't wait. I would assume it is much much different than playing golf on wii, which I have gotten better, but still not "great" LOL

Brooke,

End of the day, this is a service industry. Regardless of the validity of what is being conveyed, it has to be said with proper attention paid to the business dynamic. I actually don't understand the concept that you require name and contact information of two ladies, but take offense to your name and contact information being used for verification by another SP. Or did I read that wrong?

Again, wanting to create some safeguards and assurances for yourself is completely understandable. However, they are YOUR assurances and safeguards. Your tone should reflect that you are in fact asking for something of people that 1. do not necessarily have to give it to you and 2. that is not required of all SPs, even those that value their safety and business interests as much as you do. So in effect, you are asking something of THEM, not the other way around.

I just think you should, for the sake of your business model if nothing else, moderate your message so that it is clear that you are aware of the dynamic between the provider and hobbyist. When I walk into a car dealership, I don't hear complaints from the salesman about the (lack of) creditworthiness of some buyers. I'm met with a smile and information about the features and price of the car. Then I usually hear about how they'd like to earn my business.

I'm not sure why, but Kipling's words seem apropros

If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or, being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or, being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise...

Just my two cents....

WOW is all that I can say!

Brooke, if I ever had any interest in seeing you it is long gone now (not that that upsets you) but let me explain why! Not because of the the topic you are bringing up (its relevant), not even for the information that you seek, but because of the way that you have presented this topic and because of your generally negative, condescending, and truly demeaning attitude! Those are my observations and my perceptions!

In my above response I have been concise, direct, and respectful. I wish you good luck and appreciate the fact that you raised this topic because I am sure that there are some individuals who will appreciate this! But perhaps the best place for this would be for it to be posted in HOBBYING 101!

Have a wonderful day!

I am serious about that to perhaps it belongs in the "Questions for the Staff-Upstate New York" in a thread entitled Hobbying 101!

Who, OSD, GP, Jon, would you gents write it and heck Brooke perhaps you can collaborate with some other providers and then heck maybe the mods will approve it ...

but take offense to your name and contact information being used for verification by another SP. Or did I read that wrong?

I never said I wouldn't be a reference for a gent in the future. All I stated was do not give out my phone number or incall location to others. You may however, contact me and ask to give lady X Y or Z my number first and then I will expect and answer her call.

I was clearly stating that some asshat gave out my number to a lady who clearly didn't speak English and then blasted my phone with 50 plus calls!! I had to call Verizon and block her number!! Do you know what a hassle it is to get unexpected calls and then 50 plus in one hour?? It's annoying. And it could have been prevented if the gent thought clearly and asked first to give out my number. Which I stress is NOT public knowledge. Giving out a lady as a reference is much like writing her review... anything not publicly written on the net isn't shared on the net. That is why time and time again it states on her reviews "will give after screening".

Anyone who has seen me knows that I am always there to refer them onto other ladies. I am just making it aware that many of us ladies do not have our numbers publicly posted therefor one should not just freely hand out our number to ladies whom we don't even know nor never spoke with. It is always best to ask the lady first.

And DD... you've been on my DNS list so no worries Toodles!!!

Of the ones that do screen no two do so in the same way. How does one wright that. Dam I would rather take a shot at rewriting USA tax code. 101 of screening is a read whats on her website/showcase and profile. Read a few reviews if ya can read ROS, of the guys that state that part in there ROS. Then ask the provider anything if one is still not sure. Trying not to be a pest when asking.

One could get past most of it with p411.

Another way is Patience, skill, Patience, charm, Patience, luck, Patience, kindness, Patience and some more Patience. I have done it in the past on ASPD and ECCIE. And if a ASSHAT like me could. one would think anyone could. WRONG, and never with every one.(as the ones I could not if tried did not work. it was best for both anyways) And the whole time just be self. very few males on this board willing to take that much time and or put that much work into wooing a gal. But not look like a asswipe ass kisser in the process. As they errr most can see through that ass kissing BS.

In the old bar game. I have seen guys that could not get laid or robbed with a fist full of cash and 20 providers in need of cash in the house. And with only 10 males in the house. Not counting the other 5 providers not in need. But willing to take.

So how would one wright screening 101. mmmmm Two Houses of Congress, the Senate and the House of Representatives.

Let the guys draft one bill. That will take long time as we do not all agree. Let the gals draft another bill . that will take a long time as all do not agree. Each try to get there bill past the other house. When done let the mods post it or veto. Then when we finally get one past all and sticky posted. We can all ignore it as a joke and all do as they want as now. 10 years from now. By that time many members left and a lot of new members. So they bitch to the owners and admin's (the supreme court) to rule as trash and we can all start over again. Now that sounds like fun and drama free. LOL

I've got homies in this thread !! Peace

or perhaps I should say she is odd given that I have never contacted her ...

Now how do I go about getting in trouble here? I mean fuck, Brooke can get away with calling people names being condescending and demeaning so I am just wondering what I can do or say that really will get me in trouble ... oh and Brooke given that we have never communicated thanks for putting me on your DNS list you're either psychic or psycho, Im going with Psycho though, but u have just confirmed why I will never see you and just out of curiosity is it prima donna, bitch, asshole, or a different word that you are most associated with? Its hard for me to tell, just let me know!

Oh and Brooke, thanks again! Relax, have a wonderful life, a rewarding career, and keep up the good work!

Mods can you please tell me why its alright for a twat, female or male, to be allowed to be condescending, demeaning, and generally a nasty trollop?

Yes GP she certainly did and I feel crushed to be on her DNS list
