Turning down bookings
« on: 29 September 2009, 09:38:54 am »
I was just wondering what other ladies do when they get a phone call from someone who doesnt seem rude or anything but just doesnt sound like a person you would want to see, a chav for example. Do you lie and say you are fully booked or do you say that you don't want to see them? Thanks in advance xx

Oh good grief, don't say you don't want to see them, that can turn into a nightmare. Fully booked, is good, and save number in phone so you don't answer them again.

I hate when you answer the phone and the first question is Whenareyouavailableplz? and I answer honestly before realising I seem to be talking to a seventeen-year-old or someone who sounds weirdly sinister - then I have to backtrack and go, "Oh, WEDnesday? I thought you said THURnesday. Ahem. No, on Wednesday I have to crochet a tea cosy. Sorry!"

I don't mean to be rude though. I'm probably a bit too fussy - I really dislike dreading an appointment all day because I got a bad feeling about the phonecall, then canceling last minute due to stress-induced stomach cramps or something. It gets a bit messy and if there's nothing wrong with the guy after all, he deserves to see someone who can be relaxed around him and not mess him about.

It's always polite to say your not available or that your booked up for the time being. they might call back in a few days or so so if you still not keen on seeing them take note of their telephone number and name they giving you so that you do not book them when you guts says not to.

In a previous life I was given extensive call training during which, we were often told it's extremely difficult to figure out what a person is like over the phone.

Since becoming an Escort I've come to realise this is so very true. Far too often I've thought someone young/old/rough/smart is going to be turning up at the door, when the exact opposite has been true. As a result I don't make any judgements until I meet someone in person. Even then appearances can be deceptive.

Attitudes can also differ in person. However anyone who texts/phones asking for excessive details or looking like they are a potential "I want to take over your life babe", is going to get short shrift. I do let them know why in a few cases they have changed their approach, but the majority just clear off.

Which is fair enough.

Thanks for the replies ladies. I agree that it is often tricky to figure out a person over the phone and i think some men especially are bad at phone ettiquette, but if a guy sounds rough or like a chav on the phone i really don't want to invite him into my flat. Maybe im a bit paranoid but im newly independent so its all new territory for me. xx

Ha! I am terrible for this if they don't sound like someone I want to meet on the phone!

I have had people not want to meet me after talking to me on the phone saying I sounded too "professional" (as opposed to a pushover presumably?!) so I see it as fair enough if the phone convo means that you don't want to meet someone. Just would never tell someone why (sometimes it is difficult to even put your finger on why come to think of it.)

I say I am fully booked and I do feel bad for making pre judgements but if I dont like the way someone sounds I wont see them. And I will store their number in my phone as whatever I feel is appropriate.

If they sound like a complete knob or half wit I make an excuse. I once lost a bloody good regular because of sitting in waiting for a timewaster who had called me first. I think my usual bloke must have found somebody else that day, he was lovely too, never any trouble. :'(

Generally we turn down anyone rude or who sounds intoxicated.  Also any hagglers and anyone who refers to girls as this one or that one and sounds like they are talking down to women in general.

Maybe we are too fussy but we value the girls safety above making money.

Ladies, I don't think you are being fussy, at the end of the day it is about being safe, and making a decent living, I don't think you should put yourself at risk for a few quid. If he sounds weird, or like a chav, then chances are your feeling that for a reason. Go with it. Why take the chance it is a TW or worse yet, someone out to cause harm?

EXACTLY!

I think we are all guilty of predjudice over the phone, but I can say majority of the time its our own paranoia. But then again too, just because this is a 'job', I think we are still entitled to who we see. Normally I would say to myself, "fuck it and take the risk" but being that we arent stockbrokers the dynamics are a bit different

The other night someone called me late and I said yes, but then I called back and cancelled. It was the 1st time I did that. One it was 230 am (on a weeknight) , 2 I was feeling a bit under the weather, and 3 I was just not feeling it and told him to call me later but a bit earlier. I sorta regretted it, but then again I wasnt ready so I dint go.
