I now remember why Ally Moore was the darling of the Atlana TER set.  Always ready to stimulate the dialoge between the two teams. This economy has us all (providers) reigning in our egos a bit.  I too have had to take a second look at etreme requests to find a viable source.  Not always easy.  Thanks Ally

...the ego of the service trumps the needs of the client":

You should pretty much put that on a mug or a t-shirt or something.
Apologies, I do not know who to attribute it to as I don't know what to search for (it may have been an alias) - I think it was in regards to a provider going public about her activities and the hobby.

You may have only said it in passing but for some reason, that comment really resonated with me and put a few things into a perspective I've neglected.
Do you know that in my day-to-day operation that comment has crossed my mind dozens of times?

It just happened a few moments ago when someone requested an outcall with all of the trimmings (extreme requests) for my holiday special rate.  Just when I ready to cop an attitude and drop correspondence the comment struck me again.  

Its truly a quip that reminds me to reign in my ego and just make money and have fun.  
The quirkiest clients who are the most "work" can often be the most fulfilling and surprising.
The KISS principle is now in effect for me again-
"Keep it simple, stupid" : ).

Happy New Year & thank you Philly member!

Even if he was only referencing discretion and the privacy of the client - its truly applicable to everything and was an eye opener/reality check for me personally.

Happy to help.

I am just a newbie, but I consider discretion to be of the utmost importance.  However, TBH, I didn't understand everything the OP on the other post was trying to say.  Care to elaborate on what you got from it?

It's the new nails,  I SWEAR! Pretty but pretty useless. Sorry

isn't it the truth! I am a salesman and the more I focus on my clients needs, the better I do. Sure I run into the occasional client who takes advantage but the good always outweighs the bad.
Ally, please let me know if you ever get out this way, you are the kind of woman I would love to see.
