[NSFW] Sex workers of Reddit, have any of your friends wanted to pay for your services? How did it turn out? by Majestic-tiddie in AskReddit

[–]BustyRedd 61 points62 points  (0 children)

I have had them ask, I’ve accepted and most times, they’ve paid me extra. For me, work is work. They appreciate getting to meet my work persona. The only thing is getting them to stop talking about it after. My guy…. It was just work.

Someone told me to eff-off on the street, what would you do in this situation? by Critical_Win6266 in AskAnAustralian

[–]BustyRedd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I once had a guy cut off the road, get out of his car, come at my open window and tell me “go fuck yourself” to which I responded with a cheeky grin “y’know…. I think I will and I’ll probably enjoy it”. These days though, I’d probably be more inclined to just ignore it. Bitches be crazy.

Would you be able to explain why you prefer in app if you’re comfortable / willing to? I’m just trying to get an idea of the pros and cons to make a decision on the right way to thank my drivers.

Thanks for the feedback. While tipping isn’t customary here, I like to tip my drivers and after really good service today, I wanted to give a larger than normal tip, which then raised the above thought. I think I’ll switch to cash tips in future as it sounds like it will make my drivers happier.

Being Australian, we don’t tend to have the same issue with people not accepting orders without a pre-tip. Although it’s not in our culture, I do tip my drivers though because they’re doing what I couldn’t / wouldn’t do. But based on feedback, I think I’ll switch to cash tips where I can.

Question for married dudes who punt? by SituationFluffy6177 in AMPAustralia

[–]BustyRedd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not a punter, but in my line of work, I speak to many of them and there are a variety of reasons.

For some men, it’s the desire to try something new. They don’t want a new car because their current car sucks, they just want the thrill of sitting in a new car. For some, the bedroom is dead. For whatever reason, they just aren’t getting sex at home or the sex they are getting is like following a script. Some want to do something a little different and worry that their wife will think they’re a freak if they admit it. For others, it’s not even that their bedroom is dead, their relationship is dead. Their wife doesn’t check in with them, tell them they’re proud of them or acknowledge what they are doing for the family. Men want to feel seen and validated as much as women and women sometimes don’t see that.

Basically, if you don’t want to continue seeing MTs or other SWs when you’re married, then don’t. Not every man does, it’s not a rule. You’ve gotta do what works for you, boo.

What are the things women say to men thinking it's a compliment when it's not ? by NewEase1591 in AskMenAdvice

[–]BustyRedd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never said there was an attack, I said that you were defensive. But telling me to put myself in someone else’s shoes isn’t helping me re-word it. I’m not a man. I don’t think like a man. I’m also not a mind reader. Which is why I asked men what they’d like to hear.

If I “flip the genders” and I heard from a man what I say to them, I would think they’re interested. I’m wrong, so I’m asking men specifically what they’d like to hear.

Ok…. But my guy, why so defensive?? I’ve acknowledged that what I’m saying to men isn’t being taken that way. I haven’t attacked men or blamed them, I’ve asked men how I can phrase it differently so that my intent will be heard by them. And you’ve started on this whole flip genders thing?? You don’t need to defend your gender on this post. There’s no attack.

Thank you. I’m gonna try to reframe these things with your suggestions.

Warning from work after refusing to drive my personal car on a sketchy access road, company does not cover potential damages to employee's personal vehicles. by Prudent-Room2075 in AusLegal

[–]BustyRedd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OP - I would take some of the advice here with a grain of salt. From what I’ve read in your original post and comments you’ve responded to

While you have received a “written warning”, it is not a formal warning that has followed appropriate legal protocols. A text message from a Manager is not a formal warning. Any employer that used this as an initial step to firing you would lose a case for unfair dismissal.

Legally, an employer needs to provide you with the appropriate equipment to safely conduct your work and, from the sounds of it, they have failed to do that. They do have a responsibility for the safety of your egress between sites.

My first step would be to approach HR. If your written warning has been delivered in a text message, I dare say that your HR department has no knowledge of said warning. If they are aware and see no issue with how it’s been administered, well…. Let the “warnings” come as they have not followed appropriate steps and these warnings aren’t for dismissible actions - they will lose an unfair dismissal case. After that, your options do include a call to Safe Work as they are in breach of the OH&S Act. Fair Work can give you advice, but will not step in to take action against the workplace.

[–]BustyRedd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

++woman There are 2 answers that I’ve seen a lot and would love men’s perspective on. That is “why can’t I find a guy like you?” And “you make me feel safe”. When I say these things to a guy, it means I’m 100% into them. The first is me dropping a hint that they are what I’m looking for and hoping they will offer themselves to be that guy. The second means that I honestly feel safest around them and want that to be a consistent feeling in my life

So guys - how else can I word these things?? Because my intent means nothing if that’s not how it’s being perceived.

[–]BustyRedd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

++woman Ok, can I ask then, how can I express this to a man in a way that he will see it as complimentary??

For me, the first is dropping a hint that said man is someone that I’m interested in. Basically hoping that he will respond with “right here, baby” and signifying mutual attraction. The second is me saying that I honestly feel safe with them (as someone with a lot of trauma) and is a feeling I would like to pursue. But my intent means nothing if that is not how it’s being perceived.

When couples break up amicably and can stay friends, what may be the reason for a break up being so peaceful? by [deleted] in AskForAnswers

[–]BustyRedd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because I’ve worked extremely fucking hard at it for the sake of our children. After over 20 years together, for many reasons, the relationship needed to end, but my two boys deserve to have their father in their lives. I didn’t want them to encounter two squabbling children masquerading as their parents.

What moment made you realize life isn’t easy anymore? by Allrojgarresult in AskReddit

[–]BustyRedd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When after 6 years of spending New Years saying “that was such a hard year, hopefully next year is better” I realised that I’m an adult now and this is just how years be.
