(rhetorical title question...)
 
​"Are you available?"
"Hi are you working tonight?"
"Can you come to my hotel right now?"
"What are your rates?"
"Do you do half hours?"
"I saw your ad, you are hot!"
"Wondering if you do trades?"
"Hi do you take newbies?"
"How much for just a massage?"
"Love your reviews."
Then there are the lewd comments...
 
This is what flashes over my phone on a regular basis.  I try to keep it in my pocket, but I don't always have pockets.  I could configure it so it doesn't show these snippets as they come in, but that removes its very convenience for when family and friends text me, and say, I'm driving.  I could have 2 separate phones... one for my biz and one for my personal life, but smart phones are expensive, much less the two separate phone carrier plans with Internet service adds up quick. Consequently, I combined those two separate lines/numbers long ago into one phone to simplify things and I'm not about to go back to that bulk.

Many of the advertising sites we ladies post our profiles/ads on REQUIRE that we display our phone # within it (and listing a fake one would only hurt your biz).  Yet on those particular sites within my short text block, I always state, "NO CALLS / NO TEXTS."  Not my fault some don't actually read our ads (unlike my board posts, I keep my ads short for various attention spans).  But I've also seen guys go to great lengths to acquire numbers not posted within our ads.  Whatever their reason, this has shifted to an Internet-based biz, where a smart phone or tablet is a virtual necessity anymore.  

I'm trying to get these particular ad sites to change this rule, but that's easier said than done and some are reluctant to get with the times.  

A little off-topic but still relevant - my ads also instruct one to book through my website link... this kills two birds... my website then alerts me someone wants to meet, while all screening questions are submitted along with it to allow a quick, smooth transition between this initial inquiry and the time in which we get to meet.  Rates are there, more pics, and for those interested enough to actually read, one can acquire just about any answers to questions they may have about me or what I do.

Unto the culprits... I don't call/text Hobbyist phones with the number given during screening (unless asked to).  I just assume they, like myself, require discretion because they have a family and/or private life.  So my texting their phone with (especially at 4:00 in the morning!), "Hey baby, I'm available now, still want to meet?", is just inappropriate, right?  

I realize there will always be a few [idiots] who don't get it, or others that have no respect (well?).  Que sera sera...

I will give my number once an appt is set (just ask!).  But it's not smart to have these ridiculous inquiry texts and calls coming in at ALL hours, while many aren't even serious inquiries.  Lest we forget that what I do is frowned upon by most of society.  I find is best to cover all my bases and eliminate any questioning beforehand.  I am not a good liar.

Thanks for reading.  I'm not requesting ideas of remedy, nor am I open to suggestive alternatives...  I'm just sayin' in the nicest way I know how... if a lady doesn't wish to receive 40 blatant texts/calls a day, respect that and use her requested method of contact, just as we do for you.  We ALL have private lives and I really AM a sweetheart in person, BTW.
