I hope that you intended your statement to be humor, because is seriously devoid of facts. I had the pleasure of working with a large group of A.S.E. certified technicians that came to our facility because they had made "their nut" and came to work for the retirement and health benefits. You MAY well have had one of our students repair your vehicle.

And then there was the strike called against Yellow Freight, and the company simply closed their doors, sold their holdings and equipment and put several hundred workers out of work.

is there an echo in here?????

It certainly could go either way ....... speaking for myself, I can keep a sense of humor for one or two reschedules but after that, I start looking again.

It would be a "one and done" experience for that individual. Do they al least know the difference between toilet paper and a shower curtain??????

That was the standard for many years. Cash is (for me) the only way I play. NO trails, no bait and switch with no return of deposit. I know that many ladies require deposits but based on the increasing number of those ads perhaps things are changing?

There is a chance that they do not have the cash flow to immediately return your deposit. PERHAPS they are collection interest in your 200. Sucks that there are businesses like that but they are cheap.

There HAS to be a happy medium somewhere. I frequently see posts that demand deposits for advanced appointments, I see posts that demand contact ONLY when I am ready to meet, and then there is situation. I see nothing t be gained by extolling the virtues of the way I try to schedule appointments but I have always been respectful, even IF the provider is not. It seems that the fun of this hobby is quickly going the way of the extinct dodo bird. Clients and providers both share in the decline of this endeavor.

I had a high school teacher (biology) that was ranting about global cooling and some of the students were concerned about some looming extinction event for a field mouse and the instructor said that ALL species would eventually go extinct, even humans. Natural selection at its' best.

I suspect that IF the lady was LE the client would not be writing a review ....... that would just be more evidence that would be used against him if it went to court.

I do photography (and other activities not related to here) and when I saw your profile pictures I tried to imagine have you as a model. IF I had decided to pull the trigger on that thought, my call or email would have been " I have seen your profile and I find you very attractive. I would love to set a session with you that would include photography. Would you be interested in such a session. Thanks for reading this, I hope to hear from you soon". I did not send this but would that be considered harassment or threatening?

I did not want to hijack an existing thread, but why do folks prefer Uber over a taxi cab? When I need transportation that requires 3 stops, I hail a cab, tell the driver the three stops I want to make, and in which order, and the cabby waits at each stop for me to come back and go to the next. The meter keeps running and when my "trip" is completed, I pay the meter, provide the appropriate tip and go on my way. Based on what I read earlier, it is far more complex to do the same trip with an Uber. Am I missing something?

during the 2 + years I was writing my thesis I was "encouraged" by several P.H.D. s to slant my research toward a segment that pay a great deal in research grants but would make very little impact on what I was researching. I lost a lot of respect for academia during that time.

I certainly was not demeaning you.

So taking part in a PUBLIC FORUM and expressing a dissenting opinion is driving men from this group???? I suspect that it is more likely that the providers here that become plain toxic when some man dares disagrees with them. In no way did I question the O.P's feelings, OR her statements. I questioned the obvious. BTW just how will learning that animals have different accents help insure their survival?

What is "sad" is the amount of tax payer money spent on this "study" and the fact that this "Doctor" has a following of students whose advanced studies will be trying to identify other animals dialects. Just more proof that too many people are educated far beyod their intelligence.

Based on the way this site has morphed, I will not and have not used my handle here when seeing a lady for quite some time. I ALWAYS use a hobby phone and email account. I screen through p411 and generally only see ladies there. IF they happen to be TOB all the better, but that is not a requirement.

So this is all his fault????????

that is what I get when I post before coffee.

Why is blonde not possible?????

Unfortunately, THIS is not the first time some butt fungus has killed someone in a car with a rock. The roads that cross over other roads have chain-link fencing covering the lanes below for a reason. This was happening even when I lived in Denver a few decades ago. The ones that do/did this were the same low life creatures that can/will not consider the effects of their actions, and NOW if caught, will be out of police custody before the arresting officer finishes his report on the arrest, but rest easy, crime is not increasing.
