A lot of my reviewers mention that I spent more time with
them  than they paid for.
It is true.  I don't see more than two appointments a day.
Usually one in the afternoon  and one at night.  If I am
having fun why call time?
However, I have been receiving a lot of calls lately that
ask if I am a clock watcher.  I have always hated that question.
It tells me that the caller is wanting to pay for an hour
and get two or even more.  
Obviously, I am not a clock watcher.  They know that from
reading my reviews.  It seems to be their "code" way of
letting me know that they want extra time for free.  
I have been getting a little cranky with these guys and I now
tell them that, yes, I am a clock watcher.
Is it an ego thing or what? Why do these guys have to put in
the reviews that they got extra time.  Why can't they say
something like, "She wasn't a clock watcher.  We went over
and she never mentioned it".  
One of my latest reviews mentions that we went three hours
over.  I asked him not to mention that.  
I have a policy of not ever mentioning reviews to my clients
because I don't want them to feel pressure to write anything
in particular about me.  But since it has been getting out of
hand, I have lately been asking people not to mention that
we went over on the time.
I like my clients even though I am starting to feel taken
advantage of.  Even if money wasn't so tight right now, I
am not the type to hint or ask for extra money.  And I do
not do it with the hope of a tip.  
I do hope that some of these clients who have done this,
will read this post and know that because they had to brag
that they have ruined it for themselves and others in the
future.  I am going to start watching the clock.  If only
for my own self esteem.  Not to feel like they are cheating
me.
And if staff does really feel that way about posting the
different prices, does this mean that if I write and ask
them to take out of my reviews the part about getting
extra time, that they will do so?
