A Financial Breakdown Of My Life As A Sex Worker
Confession of a Former Sex Worker
In this section, the speaker introduces herself and explains how she got into sex work.
Getting Fired and Going into Sex Work
- The speaker got fired from her office job and went into sex work to pay the bills.
- She applied for many jobs but didn't get any calls for interviews.
- An acquaintance told her about an adult massage studio in town, which seemed like a decent way to make money.
How the Studio Operates
- The studio is cash-only and has strict pricing that is stated on their website.
- The prices range from 120 to 260 Canadian dollars depending on what the client wants and how long they're staying.
- The strict pricing ensures that attendants don't undersell themselves or steal clients from other attendants.
- Clients are not allowed to pick from a lineup of attendants. Instead, they say who they want to see, and then they're shown to a room.
Work-Life Balance
- The speaker works three times a week: two weeknights and one weekend shift (normally Sundays).
- She has additional streams of income including cleaning and writing.
- When not with clients, she spends time catching up on Netflix or doing something creative.
Payment
- After paying room fees (about 40% of the house), she takes home $109 on a slow night or $400-$500 Canadian on a good night.
- Some girls take home more than that but there are also nights where they don't make any money.
Conclusion
- The speaker will stop doing sex work if it interferes with her real life or sex life. She also wants to save for emergencies and invest in her future self.
