Time Bandits
Oct 2 2019 05:42PM more by JordynnFoxx
Tags: Orange County, Random (All tags)

Through much frustration, I've decided to name those people who waste my time with numerous questions, requests for more and more photos with less and less clothing, booking an appointment, and all with little or zero intent on actually showing up, I now have named the Time Bandits.
I often wonder if they know how valuable that time I spend giving them that attention it takes to accommodate each request, actually is for me. Not to mention the wasted appointment time that could've been used to spend with someone who truly wanted that time with me. There's really no way to profit off that wasted appointment, nor can I see any way to secure that time slot with a deposit of some sort. In the end, it just upsets and even offends those who are credible.
Still, it's happens enough, that I find myself growing increasingly suspicious of anyone who dates to message me too many requests. It may even be rubbing me the wrong way enough that I sound short or impatient with the gentleman who have integrity. So what to do?

I do believe I have found a solution! Since I can not, or will not rather, charge for a secured appointment time or for missed appointments, what about discounting for punctuality? Make an appointment and arrive no later than 10 or 15 of the appointment time and receive a substantial discount. I think that would make both ends very happy. It would most certainly increase the odds of kept appointments. What do you think?

Sounds delish!

Sounds good; quote 100/hh, then rebate 20 if client arrives on time.
Might up the 1/visitor-per-year metric that currently exists.

I thought this was about the 1980’s movie.

I think most of the daily newspaper qualifies as a time waster.

I went back in time and changed a few things.

1) Malcom X was our 34th prez
2) Women, by law, can't drive cars.
3) Slavery lasted 48 hours. The White South said, "F This" and sent em back.
4) If you want a divorce, you must enter a "cage match- chairs and ladders' first.

I fucking hate cleaning my windows. It's so much work and such a waste of time. I was promised that it would be fun but it's not. Instead of hiring somebody else to do it for me, I'm going to complain about it on the internet.

Happens a lot to Uber / Lyft drivers too. Don't ask how I know. Although a couple have hit me with a 20 spot for doing so and a 40 from one who I only drove 3 miles.

There is a reason why my Reliability is where it's at.

Then adding more than one line on a profile may help.

With respect, it sounds like you are going through the on the job training that we must all go through to really develop that gut feeling... you’ll learn through time how to identify people’s intentions with you... based on what they say or don’t say... my best words of wisdom are ... 1. Don’t get jaded... Try to accept those things as learning opportunities and move forward. 2. It’s ok to ignore and block time wasters as soon as you realize that that’s what they are doing... you’ll get better at this watch

3. Have fun ma, in the time it took you to write this thread I could have had a shot of tequila and rocked out to my favorite cumbia...

Have a great Weekend
