Yes but over here you have to remember that what we do is legal, so doing the in depth referencing and verifying isn't needed.
A client calls or emails in advance, then once he's checked in he gives you his hotel and room number, all we do is call the hotel to check that he's actually there.
If a client calls me that i have never met and i'm not around and i tell him to call a friend of mine who is around, why on earth would i want to take 30% of her hard earned money.
And if i have met him then i know he's safe, what work have i done to still want to take 30%.
And there is no way in hell i'd do a duo with a girl with a client of hers and hand over 30%. I mean come on, you both have to travel to him (more than likely) or it's at her place, so she doesn't have to travel anywhere. You both work his arse and then at the end you give her a cut of your money, ewwww someone fetch me a bucket.
The other spin on it is that she could be over charging her client i.e the other girl's rate is £300 and she tells him its £500, so it's him that ends up paying the 30% without knowing it. No way am i getting involved in that or want to be anywhere around when that shit hits the fan.
So let's work this out, i decide to charge 30% to a girl friend of mine for seeing a client i may or may not have seen.
She's takes his call, follows through with checking him out. It takes her probably an hour to get ready before going over to his, then there's the cab fare which i'll estimate at £40. So depending on location travelling time could be, mmm, lets say 45 minutes both ways.
So from the £300 that she would normally get she's ended up with £170 and that's not including over 2 hours of her time getting ready and travel. And that's not including if she has kids and baby sitting expenses.
Unfortunately i don't speak another language, but if did it would probably be N* F*& K#NG W*Y ## H#LL would i do that to another girl :-
