Sorry to break out string of agreeing but come on. If there is a chance of me getting hung up I should tell you so that you can decide if you want to see me or someone else. Do you actually expect that to happen. First I'm not going to call unless I think it's going to happen and if it doesn't I'm going to let you know. I don't want to sound bad here but I am the one securing the session and paying for it. So it should be at least a little tilted towards my convenience just like it would in any service. I agree to be as courteous as possible but not to the point where it's more convenient for you( the service) than me ( the client). Ok you can start your disagreement now. lol

I am not a 24/7, available every day type provider, and guys know this going in. I can't make it that easy unless I am on tour of course, but then I am not exactly sitting around wanting to screen last minute when I am already working.
Obviously, that does not work for everyone in this business but you have to understand I don't book 3 and 4 guys a day. If someone cancels, I can't just call the next one on the list. This is why so many girls double book btw...so if one does cancel, they are covered. I may just have to start doing that.
To answer your question rrabbit, no a hotel does NOT refund my money when I cancel. They don't just get a cancellation fee...they get it all. That goes for airfare as well. Many doctors I see make me pay in advance if I don't use my insurance for something like cosmetic surgery...they get a deposit.
I am not saying I expect guys to do this, but on the same token I don't have to book with them again. Why would I want to risk them cancelling yet again because of "work" lol. Nah...I'm good.
