Every incall I've had ends up having a doorman building with a sign in sheet. It's like this with all the nicer buildings on the East Coast. My new incall location has a female sometimes at the front as the doorman. I definitely feel more comfortable having a male doorman since they would seem more accepting of multiple male guests coming to my apartment every day.

 Should I be worrying and uncomfortable about this as much as I am? Do doormen suspect or care about the number or gender of people going up to an apartment in 1 day? Isn't it very common for ladies to host in a doorman building on the east coast without problems? I'm shaking like a leaf over here, so any helpful response would be great.

Regular tokens of appreciation and respect for the hard working and reliably discreet doorpersons at your building

I think as long as you're not hanging a red light and having them show up in assless chaps holding bottles of Boones Farm with a visible hard-on you'll be fine.  

Its called discretion for a reason

Don't think for a moment that the number of visitors goes unnoticed.

Tip your door person. Say hello and let them know you appreciate what they do. It's hard work dealing with the public. Be grateful. It goes a long way.

Nothing says thank you like a blow job LOL or chocolate for the ladies

he owns a ticket broker company.. people come up to drop off and pick up tickets all day long. sometimes he leaves them at the desk. other times he has them walk up to his unit.  

i think the main concern is that you aren't supposed to work out of residential.. so if you tell them you are a psychic you could get in trouble, but..  

i think as long as you tip your door people you should be ok.

if you just have a sign in sheet just tell the person to write sloppy. lol.

I just sign William Clinton when I have to sign in anywhere ... Nobody read those things.

There are so many reasons why you shouldnt do it, the least of which is you're letting people know where you live which is not a very good idea unless it's someone you know well and trust.

If you have good doormen and desk, they know what's going on.  They know everyone's name, apt, and any juicy rumors/gossip associated with you.  That's their job.  If you don't care that they know, and don't mind clients knowing where you live, then go for it, but I would look at other options.  Like a 2nd apt, or up your rates and host in hotel, or do outcall only.

There is about 5 rotating doormen throughout the day and I just moved in so I'm unsure how the tipping pattern or amount works? I've always thought that the one way to stand out amongst the rest is to go around tipping people

Start by saying hello and try to learn their names. Tip the friendliest one first. A five should do the trick unless you're in NYC. Hell, a coffee from Starbucks works. Food is good too. Especially home made. I leave a case of beer for my garbage men at Xmas and they are very grateful for it.

We had a top lady here that had a private incall with a doorman. When I mentioned that he probably knew what she did she freaked. Not sure if she is still there.

END OF MESSAGE

You don't want anybody invading your home space, I agree with the others... Either get a telly to just out of or go straight out call ... Too much traffic will definitely be suspicious ...

XOXO,
Ms. Leila Lovely

Not to make you nervous but I would be a little concern. I host in NYC and I avoid buildings with doormen at all cost (If possible) #2 reasons....

#1 In NYC no matter how you dress or what you look like, doormen know...unless you/him are going for an overnighter they just know who the patrons of the building are and even get familiar with the guest.  
#2 I don't like the idea of someone keeping tabs on me and my guest. Hate the fact that "Big Brother" is always watching.  

Advice: -When it's time to move try hard to get an incall with a private entrance or elevator.
            - Try to leave enough time in between calls to avoid any suspension.  
             -Try to have a variety of people visit you (i.e. friends, family, a friend with a pet, your parents, and kids) as much variety as possible to distract. If they are seeing every single day different ppl men, woman,children and pets they will most likely conclude you are a person that loves to host and be surrounded by different kind of people vs. them just seeing men.  

            - When in doubt MONEY is the answer or in this case the silence to your dilemma. Give them "appreciation" donations. Tip them well and choke it up to them being so hard working and caring. Who said you can't purchase silence. Pay them off if you notice something weird of course don't be obvious but here and there.....you get more bees with honey than vinegar.

Hope that helps let me know how it goes

xoxox

New single attractive lady?  You are already on their radar.

DREW makes some good suggestions.

Start building a relationship by introducing yourself, getting to know their names, something about their families, saying thank you, giving them chocolates, a cup of coffee on a cold day, flowers for the ladies, a nice cash tip for their service, etc.  

In our hurried world, people tend to overlook those who provide service to us.  They just blend into our background.  Having someone take the time to recognize you, say thanks, shake your hand, makes a BIG impression.

Yep, too much traffic is always bad with doormen, they are the first ones to notice what goes on. Agreed.

which side of their bread the butter was on. I've also known a few agencies in doorman buildings and I assumed that the doormen knew the score.  Smart residents tip their doormen well and treat them respectfully.

I've heard of some ladies hosting at a doorman incall. Supposedly, the doormen are fine with it if she tips generously.

But do you really want all those people to know you're providing??

If you're providing full time, it's worth it to get a private apartment incall. No doorman, and make sure the landlord and super do not live in the building. Preferably a ground-floor apartment, so neighbors won't see the traffic too often.

If this is NYC, you can get a studio for $2,700-3,000 in Midtown. This is a lot, but it breaks down to only $100/day. Much less than $300+/night hotels.
If you are providing full time and give good service, you can cover an extra $3k/month for sure.

Safety is the most important!

Just my thoughts...

One BSC 'retired' poster reappears and out comes the chainsaw. Pitiful.

Funny I was thinking something similar ...

The Doorman Q has come up before, but usually on the newbie board.  

You already say that your situation is "doorman with sign in sheet" but that won't stop me from mentioning some others, also on the east coast.  I am answering from the client perspective.

There is the doorman who sits there reading the Daily News and not looking up. Just let's the video cameras keep track of everything, just in case.

There is the doorman who sits there reading the Daily News, looks up for two seconds and nods to you as you enter and goes back to the sports pages. Maybe he sizes you up in his head ("Must be headed for the hooker's apt.").

There is the doorman who stops and asks you where you are going and that usually requires a legit answer. If you say "1414" in a twelve story building, you're screwed. A non-existent unit, you're screwed. If you say "1414" and that happens to be someone he knows very well and that they are NOT expecting someone like you, you're screwed. Better have a backup story or give the right apt. I have visited a well reviewed (~200 reviews) provider in NYC many times and you have to give the correct apt there. Her doorman MUST know as he smiles and simply says, "Thank you. Have a nice day." Awkward the first couple of times, but now I'm used to it. I'm probably on the video camera but that's all.

There is the doorman - sign-in building. This can be tough. It used to be that you just sign in and scrawl something that looks like a name and where you're going. It can be easier if your hostess has called to approve your entry. Some buildings are now asking for ID. Commercial properties in NY are taking your digital picture before entry; I haven't encountered that at residential incalls yet. At that point, I think I'd say I'm at the wrong address. Actually, I'd ask her ahead of time and if they're taking ID and photos I wouldn't be there in the first place! (Well, ... it depends.)

And several other doorman variations.  

There are plenty of valid reasons to have many visitors throughout the day and it is none of their business that you happen to be a book lover or art lover and people are bringing by their works for you to evaluate and sometimes purchase. Or maybe its diamonds. Or you are a non-professional un-licensed marriage counselor giving free advice or trying to play match-maker for your friends. Or ... there are LOADS of legit reasons people have to justify many visitors to their home. (I like to disguise myself in overalls with "IMP Plumbing" on the back and I carry a tool box and I just say "Apt 2312 - I'm here to plug a leak." Rim shot.) Maybe you're a job counselor and you help people with their resumes and interview techniques. You'd be surprised how many people need help with their oral presentations! Rim shot. If you are a student, "I am interviewing people for my thesis research."  But better have an answer to "What's your research?" other than, "How long it takes a guy to cum." or "Penis size in American men."  

But, yes, a savvy doorman will probably figure out what's going on even if he doesn't know for sure. Be nice to the doorman, don't cause trouble or give them reason to come down on you. Screen and don't allow people to visit you that will raise too many eyebrows in your kind of building. They don't NEED an explanation from you, but have a story and stick to it. If they (or the female) ask too many Qs, try not to be rude or piss them off with "None of your fucking business!" Holiday tips sounds like a good idea but don't go overboard to attract more attention than you already have

My building is like Ft Knox.  They know EVERYONE who lives there.  They know everyone's apt number by memory.  Visitor has to check in at the desk with my REAL name and apt number, and they call me to confirm any visitor, even food delivery.  Needless to say, no client comes to my apt.

I think doing regular incalls in a building with a doorman is asking for trouble. It is also a bad idea if that is your permanent residence. You should either rent a place with other providers, get a hotel room or do only outcalls. This will definitely end badly for you.

not 'because' of me no matter how much you'd love to pin it on me as usual lol.  

Funny how you came out to play tho...I'm flattered. Maybe if you gentlemen acted like gentlemen, the TER mods wouldn't have to let that chainsaw loose on their own.  

I don't pull posts. That's ridiculous. And I get pissed when someone cries to get them pulled.  

Still that wonderfully, happy gent I see. When and where is 129? You're looking good Grant or shall I say .........

Whatever happened to you that evening anyway...............

from here, yes, from elsewhere, not lol. And yes, I am engaged, doesn't mean we don't play together

Buy a clue
