I don't want to set a time on my phone. It seems abit rude. How else can I keep an eye on the time when there is no wall clock. I stay in hotels so there usually isn't. Also how do you tell them to piss off nicely? I've had alot of piss takers recently & I want to knock it on the head! X
-
I find that some linger and want to talk I often say" Id love to chat with you but I have a client coming very soon and I need to get ready", this has worked for me in the past.

Classic methods include having a music play list / CD you know the length of.
Otherwise, set an alarm on your phone! It needn't be noisy - even a vibrating one is enough.

Thanks girls :) x

Set up a playlist and know which song comes on at 50mins (and also other intervals for different lengths of bookings), then you'll know when to start winding things up. Say something like "would you like to go again or take a shower for these last few mins/before you get back to your day/[however you wish to word it]". I like to offer this scenario making sure to say OR, otherwise they'll try for a quickie and then insist on a shower. At least this way you've offered, so if they want the nookie option then they're aware they need to freshen up elsewhere, somewhere not on your time!
-
I have an alarm that I use on my phone that sounds like a text. Or the playlist idea is good too.
-
I have a bracelet style watch on.Nobody ever notices or comments and I have a quick glance at that if it feels like we are heading over time.
-
I have a wrist watch and sneakily glance at it while they have their head between my legs x
-
Getting them out of the door in time basically you just have to have a confidence about you that the time is done no bullshit you wont let them over stay. ;D ::)
I find these to be quite effective
-handing them a bag and wipes to clean themselves
-sitting up if they are still lying on the bed
-putting your clothes back on
-offering them there clothes.
-offering a shower
-putting an over head light on makes it bright and changes the mood.
-I always put a timer on for anything an hour or under
Hope that helps xx

I've had the exact same problem recently more than ever and it drives me nuts. Had 3 clients over the weekend go over by 10mins each. I could lose work cause of this.
It annoys me so much cause I just think that if you want longer pay for longer.
1 guy I saw for the 2nd time on Saturday was due to leave at 4.30. 4.30 comes and he's still lazing on the bed undressed even though I was up and putting my gown on. I politely told him that I have a client at 4.45 (lie, I didn't) and that I need to jump in the shower and get myself ready. So he SLOWLY starts getting dressed whilst talking to me then starts telling me he's been depressed recently and I thought "oh god spare me". It was now 4.40 so as far as he was aware I had a client in 5mins, that would leave me with next to no time to get ready for him, how would he like that if I wasn't fresh and showered for him. So I prompted him more, he gets up to grab his coat and still doesn't piss right off. Says to me 'I won't be able to see you again cause I need to save money but if ever you want any of that amazing oral you know my number'. Are these guys fucking deluded and think I want to see them for free cause I "love" their company so much. So bloody annoying.
-
Omg sweetcheeks. I could feel myself getting pissed off just reading your post lol. It really is a piss take and recently its starting to make my blood boil. The next piss taker is so gona cop it! Whether I've got another appointment or not. I really don't want to talk to them over our appointment time. I had a 2 hour guy once. Now with longer appointments I don't mind so much but this guy really did love himself. 2 hours and 15 minutes later he was still telling me about this escort he sees all night and apparently he only pays her for 2 hours. She loved his company that much. Fuck off!!!! Grrrrr
-
I don't think they get it that they are paying us to be nice! Yes of course I'd loveeeeee to see you out of work so you can have a free fuck!!! Idiots.
-
I always set an alarm on my phone, it might seem rude but they do know that they only get what they pay for. I usually set my alarm for 5/10 minutes before the booking is supposed to end & i just get up get ready & do my business & tell them its been a pleasure hopefully see you soon & they sort of get the hint haha x
-
I always set an alarm on my phone for 5 minutes before times up but it sounds like a ring tone so I'm not sure if clients think someone is just calling me.
I then say we've got 5 minutes left, they generally get the hint and put their clothes on and leave x
-
I have an internal clock and I dont need an alarm. And I dont mind if they overstay 5-10 minutes as I leave plenty of gap between clients.
I dont like to be perceived as a clock watcher, its the punters most hated thing aabout us.
-
Would you like a shower/drink before you go
Get up while continuing the conversation with them and get ready
Well I guess it's time to get back to the real world, but it was lovely meeting you
If I have anyone trying to take the piss/I don't like/boring me to tears I say/do those type things
-
On outcalls I do set an alarm on my phone. I say, "Let me just put my phone on silent." I put it in airplane mode and then set the alarm. I set it for exactly the time they've paid for, starting from that moment. So, the initial couple of minutes and hello kiss aren't counted. I'm not dead set on being out the door within the sixty minutes, but I won't go beyond the time they have paid for.
I am going to look for a pretty, delicate watch to wear when I'm next on tour as I generally like to keep an eye on things so that I can see how they are progressing. This can work in their benefit, as well: if the between-pops chatting looks like it may be going on too long a glance at the clock will remind me that it's time to initiate a second round.
I understand that clients may hate that we watch the clock but you will notice that they do, as well: some of them feel mighty cheated if they leave in 45 minutes. I am just careful to respect their money as well as my time and I will never indicate that they ought to leave until their time is up.
I will go overtime when I feel like it. That is my prerogative.
-
On tour I have a little travel type alarm clock which sits with the lube and condoms on the bedside, so I can glance at it when I reach over to get anything (I can't see it from more than a foot or so away without my glasses, so it's always a deliberate gesture) and like Fabulassie I find punters like to know how much time there is left.
At home I have the music clock, and I know which songs are at 30, 45, 60 and 90 minutes, then two hours, and from a few different start points - I have a couple of different playlists both about two and a half hours long so I can vary it quite a lot (and making playlists is fun :)).
Each clock starts when they arrive, and when it stops is entirely up to me.
-
I use my security buddy. When I ring him at the beginning of a session, I just tell him to call back at the allotted time in front of the client. Then when I hear my phone vibrate at the side of the bed, I make a point of telling the client that it's my security buddy. That gives them the prompt they need to get up and get ready.
-
I always wear watch on my hand and take a look when they don't see. I don't mind if they stay over about 10 min as I don't want them to feel rushed. Usually they take a hint when I get up from bed and start to dress or kiss them and ask if they'd like to take shower.
-
I bought a plug in digital clock and put it in clear view of bed, when the booking begins they can see the time and know during the booking how much time they have left and when the booking is over. That keeps most clients on schedule and means they know you have been fair.
I usually get up and put my cover up robe on, "it was really nice seeing you, would you like a shower before you go?" :)
Just make sure it's digital (much easier for clients to read) and in clear view of the bed.
I honestly believe most of my clients don't have very good internal clocks - some will book 30 mins then jump up at 20 and apologise for keeping me and others are the opposite but not many will intentionally try to keep you longer than they booked :) I've spent nearly 3 years organising work in 30 minute increments so it's easy to forget most people find guessing time quite hard.
-
If you need to time without using a clock can I suggest music, you will be able to gage from certain songs as to where you are with regards to time.

I completely agree with you.
Also what about just raising your rate about 10BPS, so you might be more relaxed about it.
If I am very happy with my rate I am actually enjoying to even give them 20min extra and they appreciate it a lot and some then even tip.
But not too often, as we know independents still don't get many tips for some reason.
-
Always wear a watch (digital/backlit if possible as some clients think they are being clever turning their lights off) and set an alarm on your phone/get your security to text you when it's time up. It is absolutely NOT rude to do this and leave bang on 60 minutes if that's what you want to do. I rarely go over time even with regs, time is money after all and if they like you they will return without special treatment.
-
I was always unsure of this so I went with just using an alarm on my phone. Making them aware of when the time had started and then just popping it out of the way. I like the ideas of playlists though, I have never thought to use music at all never mind as a timer if you like. Can anyone recommend songs that are good for this line of work ? x
-
I personally think I have a built in clock, I know roughly when an hour is up give or take 5 mins but I always leave plenty of space between my clients so that if I do run over a little then it's no big deal and then I still have time for my shower etc.
I don't do bookings any shorter than 1 hour so I really don't get bothered about running over a little bit if I did 15 min or 30 min bookings then I reckon I would want my eye on the clock cause there are so many guys out there who book for a half hour knowing they can probably get an hour out of you anyway but for a fraction of the price.

On my playlist I have modern r'n'b and easy listening songs, like Jamie foxx, Alicia keys, Leona Lewis. I have a few in there with some reference to the job, like Jeremih 'Down on me' and Nelly Furtardo 'All good things come to an end' - this one is my 50mins song.
-
A digital mini clock then they know when the time is up. The overstayers will take advantage if they are allowed. A politely firm times up works well. Or would they like to extened?. But most of the time the music is a good one.

For the ones who don't seem to be in any hurry to leave
pisstakers I'd love to have a button I could slyly hit that made the countdown clock noise.

OMG, I love you ladies! That made me chuckle...............
What I can't believe is some of those that are literally still sitting on the bed and I've stood up, put on my robe, started tidying up and he's still sitting there so as was said above, it's my cue to say shower before you leave?
Or I start sort of ignoring them! I will just wander out of the room and leave them there and start humming to myself as if they are not there! I know that's rude but in my opinion it's bloody rude to start trying to hang on when we are well and truly done and time is up!
Yes, they do hate the clock watcher phenomenon but I'm at a point now in this job where I couldn't care less. I'd rather be rude then have the feeling that someone got more out of me then he damn well paid for!
-
I also seem to have a built in clock for 30 mins 1 hour and two hours at work. Doesn't ever seem to work when I'm not at work or f**king tho, which is a shame.
As for tips I have a galaxy gear you can set up to show the screen when you sort of jiggle it (supposed to be when you snap your wrist but it'd be like a strobe light disco with hand jobs.) . Black strap on a black head board, guys rarely notice it and I can usually get a foot or hand, sometimes my head to wack the screen on if I feel a booking is dragging on. I guess if you have a smart watch it may have a similar feature? I've been known on longer bookings to keep the screen of a spare mobile phone just under the bed with the screen kept on screen saver clock so I can see the clock, just lean over when changing positions or stretching.

Maybe add some black metal at the 60 minute mark in case they're feeling too comfortable and need to get moving? I once kicked a client out by saying, 'Ooh let me show you this song.' And put on metal. He got the hint!

Haha! ;D that's such a good idea. I wonder if there's a recording of nails scraping on a blackboard, then when I go to play it it just screeches out that noise, and oh damn my ipad has frozen. Or perhaps dogs barking loudly, then I can announce my pimp must be back from his HOUR long walk with the pitbulls.
