Paraštuj, Avgusto 15, 2008

Seven in the morning is too damn early for someone who enoys sleeping in though I guess it is no different than waking up for any other job. I began working for the agency today and although I had my own fears concerning the arrangement I am finding that having a booking agent (handler) has already improved my financial situation. In just one day I have already made the same kind of cash that in the past took an entire week to scratch up and that makes the arrangement one big win as far as I am concerned, although it will take awhile for my finances to grow to a satisfactory degree after expenses. It is also nice to be in it together with someone else even if she is just a voice on the phone line and hundreds of miles away from where I work. As it turns out the agency is not the small racket which I had assumed and is in fact an international agency with providers and booking agents (handlers) around the world. Not that I am taking on any airs due to the situation. I am still just a highmarket hooker when it gets broken down and not very high on the scale just yet, seeing as I seem to be paying someone else to advertise me on the same free listings I have been using for months. I wish that I knew what she was doing different though I assume that it has something to do with her having far more practice taking calls than I happen to have.

Good for her, and good for me.

The hotel itself is fucking gorgeous. It is immense on the inside in part because everything is designed with this sort of open architecture that gives you a free view of the entire space except where said view is obstructed by fancy spiral staircases. The overall design and color scheme is very modernist and the colors are much more soothing than I expected blues and oranges paired up with various greens to be. Then there are the amenities. The standard exercise room and indoor swimming pool are both present, and the hotel restaurant is quite fantastic and possesses a menu which seems to cater toward my particular tastes as if by design. Then there is the bar and the cafe which have been built into the common area as well as a lounge that actually makes me want to lounge about in hotel lounge lobbies. Beyond all of that the room rates are very affordable even for someone who is not renting a brothel by the night but actually trying to get some sleep, and when I checked in at the counter they gave me a chocolate chip cookie.

I love chocolate chip cookies.

It has definitely been a different experience though and I am noticing some significant differences between independent outcall work and agency incall work. For one thing the clients are all very different. When working an outcall situation I finnd that I spend mucy more time connecting with my clients and getting to know them as people, establishing a working relationship that is conducive to a decent base of regular clientelle. In this incall situation it seems like everything is dealt with in a fashion that can only be described as wham-bam-thank-you-maam or turn them and burn them to use the same lingo as the agents. Even the clients themselves seem to be different than the sort I am accustomed to but that may just be a function of being invited into a space versus inviting others into a space. The hospitality is all on me with incall. As finances go I guess the quickie approach is superior but part of what I enjoy about the job is getting to know the intimate details of my clientelle and taking care of those needs. There have been some good moments though, such as the one very sweet client who lost the mood during his session but paid me all the same for a simple back and foot massage. Of course there have also been some walkaways in which a client showed up and changed his mind after meeting me - be it because of tattoos, general demeanor, or reading me as trans and not having expected it - but even the walkaways have been polite and gracious about their changes of heart.

My first client of the day was a very pleasant man though he reminded me far too much of my father, both in manner and appearance. Despite that he was very gentle and seemed interested in a simple meeting of passion with no real fantasies to explore. I asked him if he was interested in soft passion or hard passion and when he asked to see hard passion I gave it to him good and he climaxed almost instantaneously and with minimal effort on my part. My second client followed right on the heels of the first and was interested in not much more than a rude dirty fuck, and although I was more than happy to oblige him I feel like a little more advance communication would have dramatically improved the session. Then there were the no-show cancellations and the polite walkaways. I was a little bemused by the second walkaway in part because he was dressed so sharp and in part because, as he left, he told me that I should not worry because he was going to take care of me, whatever that means, in this very earnest and friendly fashion. Then there was nothing for awhile and then I met with John and gave him the aforementioned massages.

Then there are the technicalities of the day, which have been almost absurd. I guess the agency thinks that Daisy Loveless is my actual real name as opposed to a work name and so they gave me a second work name for working with. This means that I now have a second fake name to conceal my first fake name which conceals my fake real name and all of them conceal my actual real name. I might correct them so I can work under my preferred name but I am not so sure. I kind of like Deanne so long as it is pronounced Dean rather than Dee-Anne or however it is supposed to be spoken. Add to that the constant repetition of clothes on, clothes off, clothes on, clothes off and I have had one kinetic time thus far. And all on four hours of sleep! This whole conveyer belt incall setup is a definite new experience for me as far as sex work is concerned. But the moments inbetween clients have been fun as well and for the most part they have consisted of me dancing around in front of the mirrors while listening to the dreamie sounds of Del Shannon on my laptop. Lots of using the mirrors as my own personal theaters and things like that. So all in all it looks like signing on with the agency is going to be a success and I am looking forward to many more days like this one, minus a few walkaways and cancellations of course.
