I wish i could bank online, but the shopping soccer moms think im being a chop when i ask for my parking lot tips to be paid via eft. If they pay cash i simply dont watch their cars as diligently the next time they come shopping.

Firstly...i would like to acknowledge Ms.Sugar Xtreme.

It is pretty obvious, Ms. Sugar, you are not a 'fly by night', definitely a Business Woman of note and a force to be reckoned with. One can, but take good example from you. It is obvious you understand the basic principles of entrepreneurship, know your strengths and weaknesses (very important), are relatable and extremely likeable in the way you represent yourself.
Your consistency in presentation, service delivered (as per your high reviews) and always acknowledging your clients, says it all and has gone a long way.


You are, one of those ladies, i like taking note of...and am interested in what your thoughts may be. Not too loud....but, 'loud' enough. I enjoy your popping in, and sharing on the ESA forum.

If i may....due to a comment made by "myname".

Again, i know that which i shall say, will not sit lightly with many.
My intent is not to seek false favours from anybody but, rather voice that which rings true to me and is blatantly obvious...one likes it or not.....and should be open for discussion...leading to suggestions, a possible plan of action and potential solutions.

....and thus a begging of pardon from all.

I always say...if possible...dont go to the battle, rather take the battle to the opponent. BUT....in order to do so successfully, best one has full understanding and knowledge of that which one is going to battle for.

I wonder how many have taken the time to understand the space they occupy and how telling ones behaviour is. There is a clear definition as to what is right or wrong in this environment...but the preference is to lean toward the inexcusable and blame it on a 'whoring' environment, taboo and best kept under wraps.
Who has made it so....or....rather...what has made it so?

So by reference, one is saying it is ok for me to fight openly for my rights as a 'Prostitute'...for that is how ALL Service Providers are classified....so that i can become acknowledged in society as an acceptable Service Provider to wank someones boyfriend or Husband off...and should he feel the need to fuck someone else....I am available.

I wonder how many would stand openly in public and admit to that, even if acknowledged in law.

Firstly, i need no law for me to have a successful business.

Secondly, i need no law to make me pay my taxes for i do.

Thirdly, i know my level of intelligence and am always careful as to how i behave and represent myself...this space cannot remain a secret forever and i am fully aware there will always be those who will spit at me no matter all my degrees and professional background, now am potentially considered even a bigger failure for occupying this space.

Fourthly, i know who and what i am....false flattery and accolades do not spin my head making me forget i am no more special than anybody else.

Fifthly this space will always remain taboo...for ever and ever Amin

...but, AGAIN, it does not deter me from knowing my rights , it does not deter me from registering my company, it does not deter me from paying my taxes, it does not deter me from earning respect and trust from my clients, it does not deter me from using this space as a stepping stone into different bigger things.

How one is perceived in this space is truly up to one....and thinking that it will be anything more than what it is .....is a concept fantastical.

Sadly there is no ombudsman for the Service Provider or the Client to turn to in matters conflicting.

And that is why, again, i say.....in this space There is an honour amongst thieves or, at least, there should be.

And therefore.... my 'battle' would be, a meeting of minds intelligent, brave, wise helping to change the mindset of Service Providers and Punters alike as to the space both occupy. An acknowledgement of basic principles, a creation of rules and regulations to be adhered to by both parties. Taking ownership of that which is one and being held accountable for indiscretions (just like in the corporate environment), creating a supportive infra-structure for Service Providers
(not a safe house), understanding the role each plays in the environment and the respect afforded to the boundaries laid.....just to name a few.

And all of the above to be applied over and over and over and oveeeerrrrr......consistently....for many years....giving it credibility, meaning and depth. Gaining the confidence of the public as well as the ones passing laws and changing legislature.

And thus with time.....maybe just maybe.....with the diligent application from Service Providers bringing the Punters around to their way of thinking through gentle coaxing...that fantastical change may take place.

Who knows...stranger things have happened...and there are many a wise, intelligent, level headed Service Provider i can name that can lay the groundwork for a 'battle' worth starting and addressing.

Very rarely can I agree with every message or intention in a post but Sugar is on target in every respect with her words.

I completely agree with you and have shared your views for years, I also get why the lady at the bank was how she was. She never dreamt her lifes ambitions would end up with her working where she is but neither did any WG figure they would end up in their profession either probably.

Its a strong will and spirit that overcomes this and still tries to do the absolute best that they can with what they have for the better of society in general.

Salute - Mrs Sugar Extreme and respect to you, the world needs more people like you
