Simple question. When providers are listed as "independent", "agency", or "driver", what does driver mean?

and it is not a pimp situation.

For their safety, they want someone to be aware of where they are and who can look out for them; plus they need a ride to and from an outcall.  The driver is usually just a friend willing to drive them for maybe $50 or so, so it's a win/win for both.

Independent of course means that they work on their own, so they do the marketing, screening, etc.

Agency gals just wait by the phone for a call to go someplace, and have to pay the agency some % of whatever their fee is.  There are all kinds of financial arrangements that come into play.

I never contact a provider who has a driver. Independent only for me. I don't care if she has someone that may know where she is but I would rather avoid any providers who have a pimp and in the case of a driver that is the assumption I am going to make.

I have always provided a driver for my clients who are in from out of town, but that does not make ME the driver. Many providers do not like driving themselves to calls, because they freaking get lost even with a damn GPS, so it is much easier to have someone else drop you off and pick you up...especially if you are drinking.

Since YOU provide the driver. Doesn't that make you a pimp? Keep your pimp hand strong London!

I used to work with other ladies years old, & 99% of the time, they did not have their own vehicle. I would drop them off at appointments, leave the area, & come back and pick them up when they were done.. by no means a pimp, lol.

Not all drivers are pimps....and not all pimps are drivers.

A well reviewed, 250+ an hour provider might have a driver and he is in no way her pimp. A BP girl who is $70/hr and has her "driver" drop her off...chances are he IS her pimp.

they r still indys someone else does the heavy lifting is all.
some indys are busy with careers cant have that phone ringing in their real lives so their screener screens books their clients. keeps them safe and always knows where they r n with whom.
