for someone new to this business.  I am retired and therefore have no employment reference.  I am new and therefore have no reference from another provider.  Sounds like a 2 call "prescreening" would not work for me  ?????????

Some will let you use a service like date check.

I looked at the date-check website, and they want to verify you through an employer.  I don't have an employer so what do you do?  Seems like catch-22.  I can't be the only "retired" person around here.  Thanks.  Any ideas?

Any friends that hobby? They can give you a referral to one of their favorites.

so search reviews for clues then call. My first was well-known & respected agency & couldn't have been easier. Owner answers phn & could tell by dumb questions I was newbie but had done my homework. Since then, mentioning agency & provider's name opened other doors. Be honest & be patient.

How about a cell phone number and a home number?

Another thing you can do is find another provider in the area with less stringent requirements. My first was a real disappointment, but worth the referral that got me as a regular into a place with a classy staff.

Don't give out any info.  Enough girls do not ask for it that you should not bother with the girls who do.  

The girls who ask for your info typically save it and get busted with it.  And you don't want that.

Stick with TER reviewed girls and the only reference you'll need to show her your snake when you get there before you show money or talk details.
