Outcalls of days gone by

In light of a conversation with a colleague and friend today, I noted outcalls are not nearly as popular as they used to be. My friend replied, "probably due to there being much nicer establishments to go to these days." To which I agreed, and added, "correct, and maybe due to so many hotels needing swipe card access."

Back in my day, (I love saying that), you could rock up to any hotel and go straight to the room via elevator. There was a sort of sexy saunter / strut you did. A purposeful walk of, "I belong here" so as not to draw unwanted attentions of the concierge and reception.

These days, with hotels upping security measures, you often have to meet your client downstairs in the bar, the lobby or right by the elevator. Which of course could look much more suspicious.

"Look at that girl... I bet she is here to corrupt an innocent man!"


 Correct. She probably is. But that aside.

There are many changes in the industry I have noticed over the years. Many of them regarding outcalls. Many establishments don't employ a driver anymore. Fortunately this means no driver will come and knock on your door with said lady. No, these days many simply drive them self,  taxi or get the desk to take them personally.

I also note outcalls are often requested during day time hours in comparison to days of yore.

And finally... one also doesn't raid the mini bar like one used to.

Cheers!

Stepping down from being Paradise Club Boss Lady

An open letter as read aloud to my beloved paradise girls. So. Everyone has belief systems. And I fucking love belief systems. They can change they can skewer a bit. But many will stay with you your entire life. I have a few firm beliefs I strive to Live my life by 1. always wait for the person who cooked you a meal, to sit down and take the first bite of Food 2. don't compare yourself to other people, they have their own experiences and path to walk as do you 3. don't say anything behind someone's back you wouldn't say to their face 4. stand up straight, look people in the eye when you address them and have a strong handshake And These two are deeply embedded in me Do the right thing, no matter what, even if it's hard And the big one is, if you are going to do something, hopefully the right thing, do it 120 fuck off percent , if not more. Like give it your all. And if you cannot give it your all, step aside. Especially when so many people depend o

With my compliments

People are funny aren't they? I am not sure if it is because we are more often than not, raised to be polite. But it appears some people, perhaps myself included at times, are not that savvy at accepting compliments. Is it a self esteem thing? I don't think so. I know what I am good at, I know what I am not so good at! My compliments are complimentary. They are sincere. I don't want anything from you, I am not kissing your arse! I am not complimenting you in the hopes I get one back. I am simply sharing an observation with you which just happens to be positive and in your favour. Who me?! S/he squeaks. Yes you. Couldn't be. Then who?! All you have to do, if anything, is say thank you. Often a response when complimenting someone, "I bet you say that to everyone!" Certainly not. I do not believe being disingenuous does anyone any favours. Should you receive a compliment from me, you can be sure that I mean it. I am just as likely to tell

Calm your punting nerves

When I was younger version of myself I was an athlete. Believe it or not. I was amazing. Operative word being 'was'. Prior to any race, be it sprinting or my favourite, the good old 1500m (being what us Kiwis are famous for), I would have a swirl of butterflies in my tummy. People have never scared me. Fear of failure or success did. (Analyse this...) I hated it. I loved running though. And I knew once the initial "eeeeek!" sensation prior to a race would be quashed due to the race commencing; the butterflies would magically fly away. I would think later, "I can't believe I was so anxious about that!" It was fine. No one died. And typically I won. Now. As I understand that feeling, perhaps this is why I am so empathetic when it comes to clients mentioning they are nervous. I am the first person to say "it's just me! Honestly there is nothing to be nervous about." (I am nothing if not humble and down to earth) but it's not
