KC Hobby Scene Is Not What It Use To Be

Any day of the week.
And to this day
0 NCNS..
There are many clients who desire different experiences
Their tastes vary as well
And their budgets
Ect ect
So
In KC
BELIEVE IT OR NOT
there is someone for everyone. ... the bad seeds, they eliminate their selves eventually
Nobody is better than anyone else
We ARE ALL different. ..
We aren't supposed to be the same

I concur adamantly. I honestly meant my post as a defense of the whole. It was not intended to come off as "I am better than" anyone. I do not feel that way at all.

I am of the mind that every provider is equal. No one is better than another. No one is prettier or funnier or smarter.... It's individual tastes and no one lady is perfect to every man.

Sorry for the rant. As an educator for the past 25 years, I get a bit defensive when non-educators complain about the decline in education. You should see me go on when people bring up that stupid stuff about "common core math". Back to the show!

My outfit burns through interns and 1st year hires cause they can't handle basic communication (English comp) and yes, math skills. And that's after they come out of college.

And I'll tie that into the thread with the way some gals construct their ads on BP, cause instant decisions are made on that ad presentation. Savannah has a nice line:

Back to the eccie showcase KC counts though: Frankly, over half my dance card have either disabled their eccie accounts, or simply quit using it, cause they themselves also have full dance cards.

But all is not lost, and I agree with Dee's statement:

The replenishment of the top of the line mature providers isn't as ongoing as it was even 5 years back. The last 2 years has seen a lot of high end providers here either retire or move.

Sophia Belmont
ChloeBB
Dahlia Urban (although she occasionally returns back to KC)
Georgia Southe
Meryl/Fabulous Mrs M
Bellacompanion
Diamond Sparkle
Bobbie Michelle
Michko (although she is making a visit in 2 weeks for the first time in years)

There isn't the abundant supply of high end over 35 providers there was a few years back. There's a ton of young girls always coming in from Texas if that's what people want, but I dont find things as balanced as they were, and we're sitting more on a low end of the curve currently.

Sorry some of those on that list i dont really think you can qualify as high end...

[Deluxions]

Just came back KC from MD, not very active there either, real disappointed.

Just me, but I understood Jaycee's comments from the start and didn't view it as her cutting down any other lady providers. She also mentioned Ari because, well, she does doubles with her, totally understandable then.

Your input was very good, and worthy of a long discussion. However, it seemed like both of us were on the edge of diverting this worth thread to other areas.

I placed my response under " Education Needs for a Changing Society" in the Sandbox.

Thank you for your input.

Nope.

[super_delfin00]

Ok then, substitute high end for quality service.. Almost all of those providers would take it up the ass, take a facial, didn't upcharge,no CBJ, didn't upsell or overprice. The market hasn't replaced that age group with new comparables. You still have over 40 providers in the area, but most of them were here going back. Lack of new infusion.

I think cursive should still be taught (if it isn't) because a lot of research is done by having to read old documents that were written in cursive. If it's not taught any longer, I'm certainly going to teach my children.

From a new member view. I get where the eccie vets are coming from. 90% of the eccie providers post on Backpage. What does a membership to eccie provide? What's the benefit to that membership?

Sweet! Learning is great. I'm all for learning all kinds of things. Lots of old documents were written in Latin, too. And Latin has lots of applications in understanding English roots and grammar. Learn all the things!
