So I'm not surprised you encountered rudeness and BS.  

But don't worry about us, we'll somehow manage to carry on without you. There will be tears, and some hurt feelings, but we will eventually pick ourselves up and move on. Bye!

I am so sorry you did not have a pleasant stay in Washington. I for one am sorry I missed you because you seemed like such a wonderful young lady from your advertisements. I truly hope you have a super summer in any of the other places you will be visiting. Take care.

You are always welcome to come back and visit our great museums, monuments, restaurants, and neighborhoods.  Delight in the city that Pierre Lefant modeled after Paris.  Engage in conversation with the most sophisticated, educated and prosperous community of folks in the U.S.  But,maybe, that just doesn't appeal to you.  Too bad.

These aren't totally real numbers but let's say 1 out of every 5 guys here are decent. They don't jerk you around, they don't no show, they're respectful, etc etc. IF you stick with it and IF you come to town three or four times, those 1 out of 5 will be the ones you're dealing with and it'll be one of your favorite cities to visit. Unfortunately, some cities are like that. It doesn't always make a good first impression, but there are definitely some gems to be found

You didn't have an enjoyable time in DC!  

I admit I'm always surprised to read posts like this!  I travel to a lot of the major US cities and DC is by far my favorite.  Maybe I'm bias because I grew up here but I've always found the gentleman here to be very well mannered and thoughtful!

so your trip was as useless as your post

 Good riddance.
 

Most good ol' decent folks would probably at least have a slight case of empathy and wonder why she had such a bad experience here and express condolences that she did.  Instead, most of the posts her run her into the ground and verbally tar and feather her.  Doesn't anyone see the irony in these responses?  Those with the nasty responses are simply reacting exactly like she would have predicted you would based on her experience here.  Way to reinforce her observations, She kinda gotcha!  

Mais, chacun a son gout. Moi, j'adore DC et les hommes ici. Par habitude, ils sont tres polis. Mon conseil a vous - resistez la tendance d'offrir des avis comme cela. On n'aime pas, comme vous avez vu. Bonne chance!

Honestly, I am surprised..you are beautiful! Summer in DC can be slower,but...

The gentlemen here are wonderful!  I am based here, never tour and I love DC.  Just bad luck, I guess.  DC ROCKS!!!!

And my reply was that he just was too much of a pussy that he couldn't handle a big bad place like DC. Lol I seriously said this to him. DC can be a tough town and it's VERY welcoming to visitors. Maybe chalk it up to bad timing? The weather is warmer and business can go up and down in the warm weather months. I bet if you came back again it might be better. I don't know , sometimes that's how it goes. Same at other places. What once was hot and soon become EH. Meaning Boston for example might always be hopping but sooner or later you will get a flop of a trip. That's just how it goes and no big deal. Nothing to get upset about.  

  Also no reason to come on the boards and insult all of us DC folk. That's not going to help you any. Sorry it didn't work out.

Have heard it often and frequently.  

Went to Philadelphia and was just floored by how good the service was versus here.  A young woman in the restaurant saw me through the doors as i was looking for assistance.  I thought for sure she was going to duck and hide or talk on her cell phone, but she actually came outside - offered assistance, and actually got me what I needed.  What?  Where am I???

The service in DC is hella inconsistent.  From extremely good to very bad.  If you're not used to it, I can see the problem.  I run into this fairly often in the "white collar" world of DC.  Everybody is important.

Not defending her, but can see the viewpoint.  Lots of $$$$$ to be made here in any business, its just do you want to put up with some of the people you run into

Going trough stress and BS  
If this would be my first rodeos then by a mean: I would of probably look into what I did wrong

But this is NOT my first rodeo
I've been touring since I remember and I rarely felt in danger, stressed and home sick that bad
I think that if provider leaves feed back about their experiences it might prevent other touring providers to feel like I did.

I rather make 1/2 of what I made here than going trough this epic stress again

With all due respect....

The "problems" you described, with one notable exception, could have happened in any city in the U.S. And I have a point to make about that, but first I must say....

The "borderline" violence you experienced is totally inexcusable and no one should have to endure that kind of behavior. I regret that that happened to you here in Washington. But surely you recognize that kind of BS could have happened in any city in America. Believe it or not, DC has not cornered the market on assholes.

With that being said, I want to point out something that I have found since moving here 18 years ago. Washington is a very transient city. People are always coming and going from here in droves. The vast majority of people I know are from somewhere else. Ironically, many of them are from California. Even San Diego. So their attitudes do not necessarily reflect the local area. Except to say the jerks you met live here right now. However, if you were to come back here next year, there will likely be another cast of characters -- giving off a different "vibe."

Also, and don't take this the wrong way, but your "problems" sound really trivial. (Again, the guy who acted almost violent excluded.) But the other stuff you described just sounds like somebody of privilege having a kinda bad day.  

Au revoir.

D.

I can see how this happened easily.

I flew into Dulles airport and it took me an hour to get through customs, my bags were still not at baggage claim -because, well Dulles Airport.  Nobody could tell me why it was taking so long for my bags, and nobody cared.

I had to travel a long way to my hotel in Tysons, and farther than I thought.  I checked into the XXXX Hotel at 5:00 p.m., when basically everybody is checking-in at the same time and I had to wait.

I didn't pre-book clients, and with 50 other traveling providers showing up during the same week, I had to weed through what little customers did write to me.

I guess having somebody ask if you would play a 12 year old girl is offensive to someone over 30.  It would be difficult to pull that one off, and who wants to wear pony tails.

I left early because I wasn't making any money, but had to post something-up on a public board to say it was because of bad customer service - ironic.

"I" see a theme going on here...."I"

I have been to several different cities and I encounter bullshit everywhere, Tysons Corner and DC guys are by far my favorite, ever. Of course you are going to get rude responses when you are coming at people on the board rudely and basically writing off a whole city. I was ready to flip my lid and never come back when I first started. It was so pathetic for every 6 appointments I booked lets say 4 out of those 6 cancelled or NCNS.  

The guys out here are very cut and dry, they don't sugarcoat but 90 percent of them are great guys. Hell I have more issues with NYC guys lately than here. This also has not been the busiest week so that may have hindered some of your clientele.  

Try coming back again, be cautious of the people who are going to try for NCNS and cancellations to keep you from coming here and laugh your way to the bank. Change up how you do things, require your donation upfront, I don't do that donation after the session shit. DC/ Tysons Corner is a HUGE popular hobbying spot, hotel staff, drivers, security, etc, know why a single lady is here checking into a hotel. I always tell the ladies to be nice as pie, they will be rude sometimes, oh well. If you normally see only 4 people in a day, schedule say 6 so those "NCNS", don't sting so bad. You are giving the haters and the people that don't like any type of competition exactly what they want.  Ranting on the board is not going to help your situation, that's what girlfriends are for.  

Sorry I'm one of those crazy bitches that believe a little competition is a good thing and that theres more than enough to go around.

I think I understand what you are talking about. John F. Kennedy was reported to have said once that DC had "all the charm of the north and all the efficiency of the south," lol. Civilian women always complain how difficult it is to find a boyfriend since most of the men here are so obsessed with climbing the career ladder. I have lived here for over 20 years and if I were younger I would move to New York. Despite its reputation for being so cosmopolitan, DC is extremely provincial and both socially and politically a VERY conservative city.

in this strange new world of public opinion, reviews and ratings, a castigation of a city en masse has at least a modicum of merit.  In this instance, the public reprimand is so vague and devoid of details that it seems of no value.  It is heartening, though, to see so many rise in defense of this great city, even if the attack was but a clanging of a muted bell.

Relax--it's one person's opinion.

Let them have it and move on. Have a nice day

Tyson's is much better in norther ca than DC.   Dc is a shitty city with yuppies and douche bags

sorry you had icky clients. But it's not a DC thing. Hope you were able to get out of your hotel to enjoy some things. Sucks to travel and not experience your surroundings. And rude people can be found anywhere and everywhere. Really.  

 
  Yiasou

French jokes

Cmon - the French haven't been relevant for centuries

 
How many Frenchmen does it take to defend Paris?

Who knows, they never tried!

 
Why is the Champs de Lysee tree lined?

The German Army prefers to march in the shade

 
When EuroDisney opened in Paris the had a HUGE fireworks diplay

Half of France surrendered

The arrogant, without any discernable reason, French have been saved by the US time after time and the trash Americans, and we don't really care

I'll have to say, you're beautiful. I would have loved to have seen you, but my schedule this week wasn't very good for hobbying.  

But as far as attitude for being a reason you're leaving our fine city...I must say you're not displaying the most welcoming attitude either on this board. Hope that changes in the next city you visit.  

I wish you all the best. Good luck.

ashington is one of the most interesting cities in the world, and I have traveled overseas.  Maybe only Saint Petersburg, Russia is more interesting (Love that place).

It does sound as if you have had an unfortunate series of mishaps.  Everyone, including me, has a bad day, even a bad week.  That was sheer serendipity, an unhappy happenstance.

You are perfectly justified in not offering “fetishes”.  But I would be extremely surprised if clients in other cities have not at least requested those services.  It’s part of this business.  Just say “No.”  There are bad clients as there are bad escorts.  Both sides should be aware of this, and we can either accept (and ignore) this or become upset and rail against it.  Or we can quit.  You can do that, but I suspect you like the income.  So realize that there are cons of your chosen profession which $500 an hour usually assuages.

You are justified in complaining about luggage and restaurant service, but please hold this city and most of its residents innocent.  That this wonderful city with mostly nice clients did not please you bothers me, for you are missing one of the bright spots on this planet.

Sorry you didn't have a better time

Ho ho ho. Look what's on her existing Francesca website "interview"--

Q: What do you hate most about the job?

A:  The lack of respect from some, short donation, playing stupid games, breaking my protocols, stupidity and rudeness.

 
Presumably this list of complaints was compiled elsewhere, so DC is just more of the same.

My SO is French and she whines non-stop so I can see why you whined. It goes well with the cheese...

French people are probably the biggest whiners on earth. Even my SO agrees as most of her relatives and friends are also whiners. They can't help it; it's in their genes. LOL.

is asking a high rate. Not customary here, and you attract a different clientele.  

Check the competition. Scorchers come here for much less. Reduce your rate, see some of the typical fellows, and you'll have a wonderful time.

Grace and class go a long way in this world.  How we handle the little bumps life (and others) throws at us says a lot about us.  Some do better than others.

...although I think one's reaction to a new place is part what you bring to it and part what you actually experience. Clearly both are variables. Coming originally from San Diego myself decades ago, I can relate completely to your reaction. My first night in DC it was rainy and cold in the Fall. And the people were decidedly unfriendly in my opinion at the time. I clearly remember thinking 'what an unfriendly place.' I have adapted but it has taken some time and recognize I am now a somewhat changed person from so long ago
