I bill by the hour. I do provide some services for a flat fee. I am flexible about what I am willing to do - there are somethings I simply will not do.
I work all night sometimes. I recently could barely walk due to back pain and hip pain b/c I had too many clients.
I have a black book (well it is a far side calendar with some black on the cover) where I maintain a list of my clients.
All my clients want what I do for them to remain confidential. Confidentiality is the cornerstone of my profession.
It takes while to learn all the "tricks" of my trade. All my clients are men.
I left an employer use get the clients and send me to them to perform services. They took a 66% cut - but took good care of me. I left them an went out on my own a couple of years ago - now I get to keep 100% of what I make. But it is a shark tank and I miss the protection at times...
There.... that is an honest decription of what I do...
Life is a kaleidescope. Facts are facts - it is all in the presentation... The facts also describe the oldest typically female dominated profession in the world...
On the name... Bobby Jindal used Bobby from the Brady Bunch...to blend in... M. Night Shyamalan - he made up the name Night in college so he could blend in...
I know that when I used The X's very German last name - I too blended in better. My own last name is not "normal" - not palatable...
Maybe Marsha Day could be my new name. I mean who wants to be Jan anyway.
By the time I am done re-inventing my image - I may very well be ready to run for public office.
