Anybody else in tier 2 lockdown and not sure weather to put on Green light and show available? I'm working but worried about showing as available as I'm in the tier 2 lockdown. The way Adultwork is these days we can't take booking request but can go available but noticed very few are in my area. Have noticed when I have shown available I get the messages questioning why I'm working :/.

I've noticed that putting AT on just increases the number of timewasters. If you are working somewhere that is fairly discreet just putting your number on should be enough.

Yes I am getting enquiries that start with 'Are you still working' so presumably many aren't.

Less inquiries but manage to get all my bookings in order (low volume) and same income level so all’s good and steady.

It was just picking up nicely and now they are implementing higher tiers in so many areas it's going to kill it off again!
So bloody annoying and it was on tv earlier that the police are encouraging people to rat on their neighbours  ???

I've had nothing for a few weeks but I'm in a tier two area and my clients tend to be mostly mature so I feel they may be shielding. Even my phone has gone dead

When I first came back in July, I was so busy and did really well. October was the month I’ve gone full time and I’ve only made just over what I made part time, so although it was okay, I should have done double what I made.
Now that we’re going into tier 3 in Leeds, I’m planning to retire way earlier than planned. I’m working tomorrow because I’ve got 2 bookings already & so if I don’t get anymore then it’s fine Cos I’ll still be in profile for the day.
Who knows if I’ll continue after tomorrow!

Well, I'm really glad I've saved money to get by through the probable 2nd lockdown. I think we need it otherwise the NHS aren't going to be able to cope.

Great that will mess up the economy even more. Be better to sheild the vulnerable. Boris will want to save Christmas day so he can look like father Christmas and let family be together.  Wonder how many will be in the mood for sex work now?

I only used VS for one week recently, millions of TWs unable to read and only two bookings, but I have to say out of those two, one was absolutely gross, the other one is a sweetheart who booked me again fairly quickly and I would gladly see him again because he was THE easiest booking and a really sweet guy.  So, I have to say, VS was worth it just for him but I wouldn't only use it as the constant calls and texts from timewasters is just too much work.

Yeh it’s stressful for sure. I’ve been on it for weeks and it’s very noticeable that bookings are getting scarcer as well.

I’m surrounded by higher tier areas in my county, although my actual area is the lowest tier, so that doesn’t help.

The next full lockdown will be devastating if it means guys completely stop visiting again.

I'm hoping for a last minute rush before lockdown.

No chance of that for me, my inbox is dead.  I was expecting this though, thankfully I have been prepping a bit.

What the Hell, Lockdown announcement tonight, I did the structure lockdown. I've pushed my self to work so hard the last few weeks and thank God I did. I had just found a good hotel to work from and now it's back to this again. Sorry but this time around I'll take what work I can over next month. Just so depressing really and not everyone can save for this kind of thing.  And I was just starting to scrape back savings I'd used up in the first lockdown, Roll on a year without all this.

If women work from home or have a work flat some will still work no matter what they did last time so there still will be some clients around that do not bother with lockdown rules and married guys will just say much longer wait at the supermarket honey.

copy +paste from the government website:

To reduce social contact, the Government has ordered certain businesses and venues to close. These include:

-all non-essential retail, including, but not limited to clothing and electronics stores, vehicle showrooms, travel agents, betting shops, auction houses, tailors, car washes, tobacco and vape shops.

-personal care facilities such as hair, beauty and nail salons, tattoo parlours, spas, massage parlours, body and skin piercing services, non-medical acupuncture, and tanning salons.

-Hospitality venues like restaurants, bars and pubs must close, but can still provide takeaway and delivery services. However, takeaway of alcohol will not be allowed.

- Hotels, hostels and other accommodation should only open for those who have to travel for work purposes and for a limited number of other exemptions which will be set out in law.


Wait... so the self-employed we have to close down again but this time will be getting a 40% ? Are you fekin kidding? How are we supposed to survive on 40%?

 Is this a bad halloween joke?
