I just had an odd experience. I'm hiring a new EA and have been interviewing a variety of ladies for the position. One of them just left, and I'm pretty sure she's a dancer, MPA or SP. She's about 30, huge bolt on cans, nice body, has had some enhancement work done to her face etc. She's not very qualified and was very vague as to the 7 year hole in her resume...hmmmm...

I'm not even considering hiring her for the position as she has pretty much zero in terms of qualifications, however, it got me thinking.

How do you ladies get back into the "regular" workforce when your time in the adult business id finished? Is it something you want to do? How do you handle the pay cut?

Thoughts?
 
Personally I never stop working for very long, I prefer to take a few months off every few years if I choose to be an SP full time. That way I keep my references and work experience current. Otherwise I work part time, just 1-2 nights a week and when I'm in a relationship I quit the SP work.
I know several ladies that have had clients reference them, it's not a big deal if you are applying for something entry level but of course the higher up the ladder you move the more your references need to be genuine.

As for the paycut - well anymore my paycheck is actually more than what I make doing this, but I don't put in the same amount of hours doing this.
When I was younger I worked at a Strip Club and I made more than I did when I transitioned to a 'real' job. My cost of living has always been in the mid-range, I don't live cheap but I don't live beyond my means either. I will admit that I don't think my claimed income was 100% accurate so for me it was important to not buy any big assets that would be beyond my means. Rather I lived in a mediocre apt. but bought nice furniture. I also paid my for school in cash rather than accumulating debt and by time I was ready to enter the 'real' workplace I was debt free and had enough small assets (couch, dining table, bed, etc.) to live a comfortable life. It wasn't much of an adjustment then because even though I was making less (think my first job was about 35k annual) I didn't have the same expenses my friends did. They were all still paying student loans, trying to buy home furnishings, etc. So I was able to maintain a lifestyle that I was used to and was a fair bit ahead of my peers.

As for an exit strategy now - well I didn't leave my current job until I knew I'd have one to go back to in a few months. It's pretty easy to explain a gap of 4 months or so, travelling, volunteer work, renovations, etc. but longer than that you have to be a bit more creative.

What's it pay? ;)

When you're as physically gifted as you are, jobs of any kind are usually easier to get, not meant as an insult, just a reality. You're obviuosly well educated but looks never hurt.
 
I would hire her on the spot.
EA is often an euphemism for secretary/receptionist. But she is the first person a new customer sees when they come to your place of business. Having such a greeter guarantees a return visit.
I know an auto parts distributor that delivers. All the drivers are attractive females. Garages and mechanics call them specifically to get delivery just to gawk at the girls.

I agree, however in this case, she would be my personal assistant...maybe that didn't come out right...

Hire her anyways. Think of it as an altruistic gesture to help an industry girl transition back into civilian life. Support the community!

Better yet, hire Kyra_to, she's a Terbite. :D
 
Based on chats..

...and close relationships with several gals:

Yes it is usually something they want to do. It is challenging work, risky in various ways and complicates family life and other relationships. Some gals need to, or actually can enjoy it over the longer term but then they are going against the "market" that puts a premium on young.

Some gals have saved their $ wisely, and many have met specific objectives (paid off debt, mortgage, renovated home, graduated, kids through school etc). So the drop in pay is well handled. Some transition- no new clients, then only a few regulars. One lovely gal talked to me about her job interviews. She knew that with her limited office experience she was going to start for peanuts, and she asked if she could count on me for 12 hours a month for a year or so. I was delighted to say yes, and I think I was her only client at the end. She was GREAT at the new position- guts brains and people smarts from her SP experience. Got fast promotions, $ then sigh. No more Daddy Bear.:o

Anon, could you please forward your friends information? I'd love to offer my services as a business risk consultant. :rolleyes:

Headhunters get a percentage of pay but we can work it out in trade. :D
