It's not even a big deal, I didn't even message the person that shorted me 40$. And maybe I should just in principle. The feeling you get when you are so nice and accommodating to someone... 20 min late for a 30 min session, stayed about 45 min, wanted service that I obv don't do (and I said my ter profile is accurate)... Is not good. Like, I was so nice to you, probably more than I should have been because I want you to have a good time with me. I am up front about what I expect and what you can expect. The "pick your battles" phrase comes to mind

I don't think that most men will find it offensive that you count your money.  Just do it in a lighthearted way. Getting it out of the way just lets everyone relax and have fun.

Count it and tell me if it's wrong.  Wouldn't bother me a bit to Count it .  To me that's like getting upset at a cashier for counting it at a store . Seems to me if someone gets upset it's probley because they trying to short change !

My envelope is always correct, I check, check, double check the amount every time. I would not care, or be offended if you were to count the contents of the envelope in front of me, I know full well what the arrangement is. I always hit the shower after the initial greeting, this does two things for you ladies, it assures you that I am fresh and gives you a few moments out of my field of vision to count the contents.  

most ladies count the donation.  I'd rather they did before I leave certainly.  I think once I did make an error, very early in my hobby life, and I took steps to make sure that never happens again.  (The loose bill was in my key pocket where I carry the donation...  Oopps!)  I find envolupes annoying as they don't carry well in casual clothes.  NOW, I count the donation multiple times to be sure I have it correct & then put a couple of paper clips on it to keep it together.    

I'm confident the correct amount is in the envelope but please feel free to count it at the beginning or the end.  

true.  i once accidentally short changed a girl $50.  she never told me.  i realized it a few days later and emailed her saying i realized my mistake and will happily make it up next time she comes to town.  she emailed me indicating that was fine.

International Hookers Protocol, section 69:  "Mongers are permitted to fold the envelope any way they want so it fits in their pocket, as long as it is white and has no secret markings."

Clearly spell out how you want the donation handled, i.e. place donation on dresser immediately upon arrival, for example

I've never ever used an envelope except my very first time
And I did unintentionally short someone once.  
Fortunately I was a regular and after I figured it out...one extra large bill in my pocket...I texted and ran the money to her at her earliest convenience.  
I think providers have every right to count it ou

While it wouldn't stop a date, I don't need to see you counting the cash. Either take the money and go to the bathroom to freshen up and count it there.  

You ladies have to look out for yourselves and should not feel in any way bad for counting the money prior to the start of the session. Any guy who has put the proper donation in the envelope should not be worried or offended. One provider that I met counted the money told me she had previously been ripped off several times and I had no problem with that. I also do not have a problem if no explanation is given.

I've only had 1 provider count out the envelope contents in front of me. I mentioned that I accidentally dropped the box of condoms somewhere between the metro station and her room, so you could say that it warranted that she double check the donation. I'd seen her before, had references, and hadn't shorted her or anyone else so it's not like I had a reputation of shorting.

Sometimes I try and lay out as few bills but correct donation out. I've got nothing to hide. I'd hate to short change anyone.
