I remember a conversation with an escort once. She worked at home and while it was comfortable sitting with a book and your dogs nearby, she described it as horridly mindnumbing! This was before the mobile phone so it made it almost impossible to do things for fear of missing out on work due to the landline. Mind you, it's not that much easier with a mobile except that you're mobile to a point - but if they're coming to your place, you'd have to get back in a hurry. You'd just sit by that phone waiting for it to ring. And then of course there'd be wankers who'd make appointments but don't turn up.
So she took up smoking and over the years it didn't really help with the mindnumbing-ness of it all. When she hit 45 she had a mild heart attack.
The same must happen at agencies as well. You probably sit around, waiting for a customer to come in. You all approach him and chat and chat and chat... and maybe play a little pool... smoke a little. But all for what? The guy chooses one girl, maybe two. And meanwhile, you never (well at times I suppose) know when to bail and leave. There've probably been many nights when the boredom of sitting and waiting must get to you.
So what do you do to get round all that? There's only so much gabfesting you can do with the other girls, there's only so much texting and surfing the net on your teensy weensy mobile phones so how do you survive? Do you end up just eating and smoking a lot? What do you do?
