The Las Vegas Courtesan

Yea, what a bummer Monday was.  I had a flight booked for my annual trip out of town for the holidays early in the morning and decided to go on one **last* call. The night wasn’t such a great money but I thought it would be good to work up to the last minute before I had to go to my house, gather my bags and get my butt to the airport.  I went to the Bellagio with another girl I’ve known for a few years (and tends to dress way casual for calls to not draw attention) and we were there for a minute before having to collect the agency fee. Things were going all right until the guys said they wanted to tip a whopping $100 bucks for full service entertainment. I explained that you couldn’t tip $100 bucks and expect such a crazy amount of entertainment. There was a little bit of a language barrier since they were visiting from Mexico but it wasn’t going too bad until the guy who speaks less English (and ironically who had paid the fee) got a “fuck this” attitude and said forget it all give him the fee back. We had already said and translated 3 times that this fee was non-refundable, but of course that didn’t matter to him now. More arguing ensued, the customer grabbed my phone while trying to call the service to tell them what was going on and the other customer started to call security. I told him to hang up the phone after he started talking to them, which he did, and the other guy took the fee back. Everything was fine and security did call back to the guy but he never said that everything is fine now and don’t bother sending anyone up.

We leave the room and security is coming down the hall towards us informing us we are going nowhere and need to see some ID. I actually didn’t bring mine on the call and that of course was an issue. What was even more of an issue was the fact that 2 years ago I had been arrested in the hotel on a bust and had officially been trespassed so I could be going to jail. The security guy was actually going to let us go since the guys said we were okay we just got into an argument and everything was fine, but here came the security supervisor and he wasn’t letting anyone go.

This whole time little did we know that vice was sitting in the security office listening in on this call and had told the supervisor to go upstairs to see what was going on. Vice had been in the hotel making a bust for girls soliciting and much to their dismay, had only grabbed 4 girls (usually they get 10 or more) so we were going no where and definitely going to jail once they found out we had both been trespassed before. They told us we didn’t have to go to jail for trespassing but since I had flubbed on my information (hell I had a flight to catch) we were both going in. Cops are assholes and liars because as soon as we stepped in the room he said we were going to jail. Nothing was changing his mind.

So yes… I missed my flight by about 24 hours but finally got out of town the next morning. Thank god. I also proved one of my “news stories through the hooker grapevine” to be true. If the arresting officer puts at the top of your booking sheet “Vice Related” there is an automatic hold for 48 hrs and no own recognizance releases. Why did I get out within 24 hrs and O.R.’ed? Luckily the asshole arresting us didn’t put “vice related” on any of our forms that were only trespassing. That was a blessing in disguise. So hopefully this won’t happen to me for another 2 years again because I can say, I truly didn’t miss jail.

Last night was frustrating and busy at the same time. With the marathon going, road closures people freaked out and half of the casinos were completely impassable. That left all of the calls to off Strip locations or anything on the East side of the Strip. I stayed busy pretty late and did well but thrown in the middle had to have been one of the worst prank calls someone has played on the service.

I went to the Hampton Inn for a service and was informed that it was one older guy  (I don’t know why they even bother with saying  “older” when most of the time the guy ends up being 25) and should be a pretty good call. I drive over there avoiding any closures I could, she gives me the room number and says she just got off the phone with him so he’s definitely in the room. I go upstairs and as I get off the elevator I see two younger guys walking down a hall in the opposite direction carrying something. I don’t think of it since she said the customer was older. I go to knock on the door and… I knock some more. No answer! I saw someone peek around the corner but still thought nothing of it. I call the service and tell her the situation and as she calls the customers cell phone, the door flies open and there stands a woman who is in her third trimester who woke out of a deep sleep. She invites me in since I know the name of her husband who is waking in the bed. After I say to the phone girl “this is a damn prank”, the wife informs me they are there with a bunch of military guys and picks up her phone to call exactly the guy who prank called in the first place (I guess they do dumb stuff constantly). I hear giggling at the end of the hallway and confirm to the phone girl that indeed this is a terrible prank that just got pulled on a husband and very pregnant wife.  I felt kinda bad for her but she actually felt worse for wasting my time! She walked me downstairs and said, “I swear I will kill those guys for messing with you”. How sweet ☺

Don’t get me wrong, people prank call a lot to their friends but usually once the guys start giggling and hanging up its pretty obvious… or they call the room and the guy they are pulling the prank on is irate that someone keeps calling them saying a girl is coming up to see them.  I can’t believe how rude someone could be, though, to pull one on a pregnant woman!

Quite the weekend I [hope] this will be. Every December the rodeo rolls into town with their big dually trucks and trailers to set up shop and try to grab their bit of the prize money offered. It’s amazing how many people participate in the rodeo for it to go on (especially the livestock yard that is created in a baseball field of the University of Nevada, Las Vegas). I enjoy some of the cowboys that come into town for customers, but I do know you have to have extreme patience since there is nothing like this in Casper, Wyoming. So like I mentioned before… the rodeo is here until the 13th or so.

Saturday night is the De la Hoya fight against Pacquiao. . I am not interested in fights, but I am interested only when they are two popular and undefeated boxers like these two. Already I’ve gone on two or three calls of fans who are in town a little bit early. Hooray! Maybe they will want to have more fun than the cowboys.

Sunday is the ever-growing Las Vegas Marathon. I can promise you one thing, they don’t cause a spike in my line of business when they are preparing to run. I think one time out of 3 years the marathon has been around that I have had a customer in the race want some sort of private entertainment. The only annoying thing to me is how they close down the Strip for the morning. That makes it extremely difficult for an escort to get to hotel rooms in a timely manner. I remember the first year I was trying to get to the Mirage and got stuck on the wrong side of the race. It was a nightmare and took an hour to get to the hotel only for it to not work out. Bummer

So I hope this weekend turns out good because it’s boring. Unfortunately I don’t have any new good stories to tell… hopefully this weekend will change that.

So the fight with Ricky Hatton I talked about last time didn’t really end up being as nutty as the last fight he had here in Las Vegas. I think it was because the contender wasn’t some huge name like Mayweather, and so all of our brothers from across the pond didn’t see a reason to come to Sin City this year. I am sure the current exchange rate didn’t help since last time it was over 2 to 1 pounds versus dollars. I still did okay, but I wasn’t running around like crazy like the previous experience.

Since I am leaving out of town early this year for the holidays (I usually wait until the National Finals Rodeo leaves since it becomes a ghost town) I am having to hustle every day until next Sunday… which included working Thanksgiving night. Don’t have a pity party or anything because I still had turkey and stuffing at a friends house, but immediately went to work after that. Was a so-so night and was definitely better than not working at all. It worked in my favor that not many girls were working so for the few calls that did come in, I got a lot of them.

Speaking of the rodeo, I’d like to give a helpful bit of information for all of you tourists that want to save a buck or two and wonder “hey when is the cheapest time to visit Vegas?” The answer is: The day after the NFR (National Finals Rodeo) ends. This year it’s the 6th of December through the 13th. So if you really want the cheapest Vegas vacation.. come the day after the rodeo and leave before New Years. It is seriously the cheapest time of year and you can enjoy all of the pretty Christmas decorations the casinos put out (minus the most awesome Christmas tree Caesars used to put out. Damn you Harrah’s for being lazy cheap bastards). As far as escorts that time of year? You might be waiting in your room for the girl to show up a little longer and the pickings might be slim… but they do work 365 days a year.
