I was just wondering if some people would have a problem with it who knows.  Whereas I wouldn't have an issue I can't speak for the public.

Perhaps it is just a glitch.

He just sounds like an idiot! Im assuming he spoke to Sonia on the phone or saw on her profile that English wasn't her first language? X

Soniaescort do you think it is your stilted English that is all I can suggest.

My English is better when I talk than i write but i couldn't even say that much before he left .  ;D

Sonia, I think it's just a bad week for some reason.. I know that would've knocked your confidence, but I think that guy
would've left whatever your face looked like!!
Just another weirdo, don't take it personal.
I've been the quietest I've ever been as well, maybe it's just a bizarre coming together of circumstances, don't think it's you!!
Keep yer chin up, things will pick up again!  :)

Thank you Siorse, made me feel better :)

Gah, I am ridiculously quiet here in the South East.  First part of the week wasn't too bad all, but it's died a death these past couple of days.  I've had nothing but idiots on the phone, noone cheerful or remotely nice sounding. Regs have disappeared off the face of the earth! And even though it's so quiet and I won't meet my weekly target this week, the morons I've spoken to are not making me feel even slightly pressured to take a booking with them!

Plus, they've been wanting to come later in the evening and by that time (because it gets dark so early, it feels like it's really late) the last thing I want to do is see clients when I've been dressed and ready all day in vain. Luckily, I'm in one of those moods where it's not phasing me too much or making me panic or doubt myself.  I hate feeling like that.  Fortunately, I'm just enjoying personal projects, being in my own little stress free bubble and looking forward to it picking up again.  Camming has been rather busy though. 

Glad to hear I'm not the only one!  When you're quiet, you can feel like the only escort in the world that's quiet eh!  It'll pick up again girls, it always does!  xx

I sure hope it picks up!

All I've had this week is the, "I'll call you back," brigade. Why call if you don't actually know if/when you want to book.
We're women, it's what we do. I just get paid for it.

I dont see the connection between Sonia s spoken english and the wanker who left ?

Ha, and me, I wasn't born in the UK either  ;)  Guy was just a wanker, getting off on that kinda shit, pretty sure it
had NOTHING to do with your face OR the way you speak!

Well, today was the first Friday since I started in the summer that I didn't have a single booking. I had three yesterday, but only one actually happened. Hope my two weekend bookings go ahead!

I've been a little quiet, but had one of my regulars yesterday who comes every month and said " last one till the new year now! "

Yes it is quiet everywhere....but isn't this the month before Xmas? Presents needs to be bought, and wives check money more, as the expense of Xmas does take it's toll?

Same here - I'm already getting regulars say 'see you next year'. I remember when this time of year was raving busy, right up to the 24th Dec.

Once presents have been bought, wife's happy and turkey's been bought, you will see they want their Xmas present, and pretend to be Santa and empty their sack!!!! Lol  ;D ;D

I find it goes quiet then busy then quiet then beating them away from door with broom! It's like every job, but understand money is always useful this time of year x

Whoever suggested updating photos was right! I had a friend snap a few last night and this morning my phone has rung like crazy. I also overhauled my entire profile - changed the general "about me" wording, and even changed my AW nickname. (It still contains my name, but is just different.) So, yeah - it helps. However, it also means that a lot of chancers think I'm "fresh meat" and so I'm getting silly calls and no shows.

Today was my FIFTH no show/cancellation this week. And I have a suspicion that my 2pm is also going to now show.

I think you end up being somewhere at the front or as a "new member alert" or something, so you'll defo get more business
as they, like you said, think you're fresh meat  ;)
Unfortunately double the amount of timewasters too!!

Yup. Two no-shows and two did-shows. Utter no-shows mystify me. I suppose some of them are deliberately fucking with us but I think others simply think we're not deserving of common courtesy once they've changed their minds for whatever reason. How hard is it to text and say "I'm sorry - been called into work. I'll try to see you another time soon."? I am pretty sure being called into work is the equivalent of leaving the wallet in the car, but it's OK if they make up an excuse. It's just the courtesy of cancelling.

I didn't realise that it makes me show up as a new member. I just assumed that I would catch the eye of someone who has been scrolling on past me for the last few weeks. However, the two who did come to see me just raved about how great I looked. I have been working really hard on my appearance (makeup and hair) and so my new photos reflect my new look. The second gent said "some of your older photos just don't do you justice." He indicated that he remembered seeing my profile before, and I guess it was the new pics that reeled him in.

I finished a bit early yesterday but my phone rang all evening, as well. I don't know if it was genuinely busier yesterday or if it was all down to the new profile, but I'm feeling optimistic about the coming week.
