Clock Watching

Taking this from the other thread of discounts. A few ladies have mentioned that they're not clock watchers. But, I have to ask this.....

1. If you don't pay attention to the clock or keep track of time, how do you keep on schedule? This question might be better answered by ladies who travel or schedule more than one appt. a day.

2. Do you make the guys pay for the additional time you spend with them if they go over the scheduled amount of time paid for?

3. Do you feel short changed if you're not a clock watcher and the time goes over by let's say........15/20 minutes?

4. Guys do you try to keep track of time?

5. Guys do you pay extra or tip her if you stay an additional 15/20 minutes?

6. Guys, how would you describe a clock watcher?


I ask these questions because if you schedule time with a provider, isn't it fair to say that you should get the time paid for and not expect more time at no additional cost?
As a counterpoint: Guys, if your activities end before your scheduled time (say 20 minutes into a scheduled hour session), and the provider gets up to leave/requests you to leave before the end of your scheduled time, and does not offer a pro-rated refund, do you feel short-changed? After all, you are paying for her time...
I'm low volume so I only see one guy in a day. I don't have a watch and I leave my phone in the car most times. I just don't pay attention to the time. I've spent 3 hours with a one hour appointment rate and didn't expect any tips or anything. I have had guys tip me extra for spending extra time though.

Finding out after the fact that the appt is really "up to an hour" and only includes one pop is aggravating. That is why I so appreciate providers like Allie and agencies like EF that provide the full amount of time (or in Allie's case, a relaxed appt with no rushing). Allie, I look forward to seeing you again in the near future!

I feel that it is the provider's job to keep track of the time and remind me when time is almost up -- although subtly is better than "you have 10 more minutes, babe". If I then ask for more time I will certainly pay for the extra. If, on the other hand, we both lose track of time and neither of us checks, then I don't think additional compensation is warranted. Of course I may tip, but I would consider it a tip and not a fee.

My opinion is that if her time is important she will pay attention to it. Other service professionals (masseuse, fitness trainer, therapist) tell me when my time is up. An escort should as well.

That being said, I am usually very aware of the time and it is the rare lady who makes me forget -- so I'm often the first one to acknowledge that it is time to go.

As far as expecting a pro-rated fee when asked to leave early, you know that ain't happening. I don't feel shortchanged because I can tell the difference between a provider who offers a "full hour" and one who offers "up to an hour". If I am with the latter, I know what I am getting into. I once had one quote me the hour rate and then after 20 minutes said "Hurry up I have another appointment." I asked about the hour and she said "most guys are done in 10 or 15 minutes, so I plan for that."
"Want to take a shower?"

That solves all time issues. I ask when we are nearing the end of our time and hop in there too and all is good.

Thanks. I look forward to seeing you again as well.
Q,

You said it perfect.
I allow at least 15 mins in between back to back appointments...
If I don't have an appointment following, I don't watch the clock...
Most of the guys who visit me know what's up...and if I spend extra time with them, I more often than not get compensated whether I 'charge' extra or not...
and If I don't, I either care enough to see them again...or I don't
I do feel that it is the lady's responsibility to keep track of the time. However, I do think being subtle is very important to me. I've been with a lady recently on a quick service told me exactly when our time would be up going into it and checked the bedside clock every few minutes in a very noticable way. A better way to do it would have been to set her phone's alarm to vibrate when 5 minutes remain in the session.

If someone schedules a photography appointment with me for a set amount of time that is something that I do to remind me of when that time is coming to an end and when I have to close off a set of images and move to the next set.

I'm always very well aware of the time and being a guy I'm usually in a better position to see the clock than she is. A guy can usually tell if she's going to be the "pay for an hour and get out of here in 20 minutes" type going in... And I never schedule more than half an hour with those girls anyway. The ones who give you a full hour, I don't mind coming out of pocket for. And if they do an exceptional job and I've got extra money on me, then I see tip them... if not then I tip them when I see them the next time around.
I had recently scheduled an appointment with a lady for a certain time. She said she had an appointment which would be done at a certain time and I could swing by a few minutes after that. Well, the scheduled time came and went and she wasn't answering her phone. So, i called up someone else and set up an appointment with her instead. She was a bit of a clock watcher but offered a good service. The next morning, the first girl called me up and apologized for missing our appointment and offered me a discount on our next session. So, I set up an appointment with her... got charged for a quick and she gave me at least a half. Granted, she wasn't as attractive as the "clock watcher" but she was a LOT of fun.

Sometimes that is what makes the biggest difference. Just how much fun are they to be around? If a lady finds other ways to alert her of the ending of the time period they can focus on having a good time with their client.

It is the provider's responsibility to keep the session on time, but it's much better if she doesn't have to. I'm usually the one to mention time is getting short, and I never let BCD activities go over the alloted time frame. But somehow it seems I'm always a few minutes late in leaving because we're chatting. I don't see "up to an hour" providers, so having the session end early has almost never been a problem for me.
I agree with Q - and yes, it was stated almost perfectly.

I have never been an "up to the hour" Escort, your time is your time. Expect (and plan) that we will use all of it . . .

Having that policy has personally placed me in direct opposition with several Agencies I have contracted with in the past that booked "up to the hour", however, I found offering my clients anything less than the full, complete time they had paid for to be dishonest. You get ALL time you have have requested and during that time, you are my SOLE focus!

As for "going over" . . . it has been known to happen from time to time, but, I do make my living charging by the hour, just as other professionals (such as a therapist, masseuse or trainer) . . . If I consistently didn't pay attention to the time, I would be left with no clients that valued my time. And, my time is valuable, and, not only to me . . . My time and attention is especially valued by those I choose to see . . . I have a professional multiple hour rate for a reason.

Being a few minutes "over" as we are chatting, or making arrangements for our next meeting, is always expected and accounted for in my scheduling - and as the weather turns even colder and there are more layers to dress, that additional time must be accommodated also . . . and when it snows, well - that is a whole other scheduling discussion . . .

There are 60 min in a hour. If I push a client out the door sooner than 60 min then I am cheating him. It is my job to keep track of time. But, I do not have to be a clock watcher to do that. If I was seeing a professional in another type of business who charged by the hour and after 20 min was told to hurry up, I would take my business elsewhere. I think if you gentlemen would not put up with this behavior and pass along the names of providers who cheat in this way, then maybe they would quit this behavior. They will continue as long as you allow them to. Take your business to a lady who values your time and dollars.
