Is your attitude more along the lines of "On the clock - punch in, punch out" or "just get the job done - you are an agent of my company?"
Shouldn't we get receipts? Whose with me here? I'm quite certain a deduction would make hobbying more desirable in these trying times.
Also, My NPR stations give me a coffee cup and a tote bag as a nice little premium with a donation. What gives, Providers? "Cups of coffee" are even an euphemism, yet no one has offered a nice little ceramic mug with, "Thanks, Sweetie! Don't cum in my hair." Is it too much to ask for a little souvenir? Does a $300 donation account for anything anymore? Public TV will do summersaults for that kind of cash. Where's the swag? I could be dating Tatum O'Neil right now.
Not too long ago I stopped by a nearby Irish Pub for a frosty pint immediately after leaving the hotel room of a gorgeous lady who had simply just rocked my world in no uncertain terms. So I'm standing at the bar, aimlessly gazing into space with a freaking huge grin on my face. The barkeep, rather lovely herself by the way, noticed and asked, 'What's making you so happy tonight?'
I almost shit my pants at first as if in a 'Busted! How the hell does she know?' thought. But I quickly regained composure and just smiled back and said 'Life is good!'.
You can get mugs at the damn swap meet for 50 cents.
Do you have any idea what a reputable lady goes through to be presentable, soft and smelling fresh out of the shower just for you AND Have her in call nice and clean and just so-so? Not to mention the risks she takes in her line of "work". I think you ought to try to see that side of things and be grateful there are good ladies out there to see.
I am grateful to each client I see and I express that. I give them a kiss on the way out. If that is not enough then I can't imagine what else would be. If I offered something solid they would turn it down more than likely.
You used to get towels in the laundry powder and ashtrays or matches from the gas station... or a key chain... Times have changed though. Now a free calendar is a big deal! I just can't grasp what a provider can give you as a token.
I have never had anyone complain about what they got as a souvenir... A MEMORY etched in your mind of an unforgettable experience.
Oh, and TATUM? Could you REALLY snag HER? Do ya really WANT TO?
Maybe this seems harsh and usually I am not, but this is just a little nutty I think.
Sorry if anyone is offended. I hate drama but SHEESH!
