Just wanted to drop everyone here a line and let you know that I had a wonderful time with all the Gents who took me up on the special I was running... This week, I will be available for incall today 12PM-10PM in North Atlanta and outcall 12PM-12AM.  Tomorrow, because I have a much anticipated photo shoot, my hours are limited to incall and outcall 12PM-5PM.  The rest of the week, my normal hours will apply.  You can check this information as well as find other info by visiting my website listed below.  Also, keep checking my website for new pictures to be uploaded the end of this week and don't forget that surprise I eluded to in a previous post!!

For those attempting to schedule a same day appointment, please call me directly at 404.798.3778, providing 2-4 hours notice and please be prepared for a discreet screening process.  As always, if I am unable to answer your call, please leave a message on my voice mail including your name, phone number, and the best time reach you.  In the interest of discretion, I will not return your call outside of the times specified, so if a call back is not received, it's probably because either the best time to reach you wasn't mentioned or passed before a return call was possible.  Anyone requesting information or wishing to schedule a future appointment, i.e., not same day, please e-mail me directly at [email protected] as my schedule is frequently booked and answering the phone during an appointment is rude, to say the least, and not conducive to a GFE.

Love and Lust,
Jaclyn

So your decision to retire has changed?

and why do you care?

Seems like a legit question to me.  If you come out and say that you're retiring and leaving the business and then advertise your services then it's a reasonable question as long as it's not presented in a hateful manner.  Jaclyn's always handled herself in a positive and respectful manner on the board and I'm sure she could give an explanation if she so desires.  She also has the right to just ignore the question and go on.

I echo the sentiment that endless retirement notices are silly.  If you're really going to retire why not just fade out and back channel your friends and those that need to know.  By posting a retirement notice you put yourself out there for criticism if things don't work out.  Certainly life throws us curves on a daily basis but there seems to be regular retirement notices saying "thanks for everything, all I've learned and everyone I've met but I'm going on to a better life and better things" only to show back up a few month later.

This is not meant as a direct knock on you Raven, just be big enough to admit that other things did not work out and you’re back for better or worse.  Learn from the mistake and don’t make it the next time you decide to retire.  

For starters, she announced her immediate retirement a short while ago. Now all of a sudden......she's BAAAACKKKKK. Did she realise that she made a mistake or is it the result of a substance-fueled drama queen's bad trip.

Oh, and Raven, why do you care?

The other posters will either agree with Raven or with you.

What's your problem mod?

You were asking me to remove Raven's post. Whenever possible, I don't remove posts. Your position was vindicated by the other posters in the thread. When I say, "I'm not going to babysit" I mean that I'm not going to step in when the board community usually takes care of things. That's exactly what happened here.

I pondered a while as to whether or not to even grace this flame war with an answer as I should not have to explain my actions or my decisions to anyone for any reason... However, I realize that there may be some confusion that needs to be cleared up immediately.  

In a post dated 1/2/2004, I stated, "Yes, I know that I announced my retirement a while ago, however due to circumstances beyond my control and because I'm having WAY too much fun right now, I've decided to postpone leaving the Hobby."  The post link is http://theeroticreview.com/msgBoard/ViewMsgBody.asp?BoardID=18&Page=5&Messageid=13377 for those of you that would like to check it out for yourself.  

I do appreciate everyone's concern, however I would like to assure you that I am still working as a Provider and the retirement notice I posted not long ago was based on plans that later went awry.  Just as "the road to hell is paved with good intentions," "the best laid plans oft go awry."  

I have never looked at this profession as a life-long career.  I have so many other interests and goals to attain that I chose to look at Providing as a vehicle to someplace else in my life.  Making a retirement posting was something I felt I needed to do.  Because my business practice is never to keep records on clients, never call someone back unless they specify a time to do so and give me their express permission, and never to correspond with a client via e-mail unless they have initiated that sort of relationship or requested I do so, I felt a public posting would be the best way to let everyone know that I didn't just disappear off the face of the earth and nothing bad happened to me.  I have made so many wonderful friends during my time as a Provider and many of these friends periodically send e-mails or call and make sure I'm doing alright.  I would never want to disappoint my friends by leaving without saying goodbye.  A public retirement notice seemed the best option available.  

Again, I apologize for the confusion and hope that everything can get back to normal....

Raven, thank you for trying to help calm the confusion some people here have obviously felt.  I appreciate it more than you know...

Jaclyn

Articulate, adroit, impressive.

Some people don't have the time or the inclination to read every post put in this room. Others live for it. I had not seen your post of 1/2 since I was traveling for the holidays. Thanks for responding in a civilized way unlike another woman who just likes to attack people and call them names.

Jaclyn,,

You are right.  You don't owe anyone an "explanation"  I'm planning on retiring from my day job in a year and have told those who I work for, work with, friends, neighbors, etc.  Now, something unexpected may happen that I don't meet that goal.  There is no question in my mind that none of those people will question my motives for changing my mind.  Why?,, because anyone would realize that it was probably personal reasons and nobody's business but my own, unless I choose to share it.  Why should your privacy be respected just as much?  Of course it should.  End of Story.

Cheers,,

Bill
