…but I don’t see why I have to take it anymore.
Rushing to the apartment today to get ready for my 12pm appointment, my work phone rang. I didn’t hear it until it was too late and I didn’t get to answer it. The same number rang again and this time I caught it. It sounded like a lot of mumbling and as I didn’t have time to decipher what the caller was saying I hung up. The person then called back for the third time and this time I heard something about “what he’d like me to do with his c*ck”. I sighed and immediately hung up and got to the flat to get ready.
And you know what I did? Something I’ve never done before. When I got the flat, I called the number back. I called it a few times and simply hung up when he answered. I wanted to get my message across that just because my phone number’s in the public domain it doesn’t mean that he could use it to make obscene phone calls. That in his case I will bite back.
Usually I’ve put up with these types of calls over the past 8 years. The worst these types of calls are is annoying. I’ve had the odd drunken call left on voicemail in the middle of the night. Even a couple of times where you can hear juvenile giggling in the background in the pub because the caller and their mates think it’s hilarious calling an escort. I’ve wanted to give these people a call in the cold light of day the next morning, but chances are, apart from being horrified to hear from me, they probably didn’t even have any idea that they called the night before, and their antics are usually greased by a few drinks.
But today I thought, nahh! No more, there’s no excuse this time. I’d like to give this reprobate a taste of his own medicine. And the fact is, he persistantly called me. Why?? What pleasure does one derive from persistantly calling an escort, talking obscenly down the phone, knowing their chances of a full sentence emanating from their lips before they’re hung up on is slim to none.
I haven’t heard back from him since this morning and hopefully he’ll now think twice before he makes obscene phone calls to another escort.
May I reiterate that I never make it a habit of calling back clients. Or people that call just to make an enquiry. I’m as discreet as you can get and my clients have never had to worry about me. I don’t keep genuine callers numbers.
But this twit will be comforted with the knowledge that I now have his number firmly ensconsed in my phone under “Idiot Tw*t” in case he’s brave enough (or stupid enough) to call again.
I wasn’t mad, I wasn’t upset. I had a long booking to look forward to with a lovely gentleman I had met before, so I knew I was going to have a good time. But after all these years, I thought why not turn the tables for once.
I won’t make a habit of it, but boy it felt good.
