phone etiquette question

[monkeybutt]

Is it bad form when on the phone with an agency to ask whether any of their ladies "speak greek".

I've only done it once, when I knew that one of the girls did. The women on the other line said "I don't have anybody who does that" and was rather abrupt thereafter. Maybe she didn't know, or maybe it was rude to enquire over the phone...?

But this is one of those "grey" areas...

... you might not find out (or even be considered) if you ask, either!

Some levels of "service" are a privilege of intimacy. In other words, you might need to see someone, get to know her, before you can ask.

But on the other hand, there might be those who offer it up front.

Both are a crap shoot. Good luck.

Etiquette

SPs and agencies especially have to be careful about discussing services and money on the phone - it could be LE trying to get them on solicitation charges. "Speak Greek" may be a euphemism but a prosecutor could probably show that it is common slang for a specific service.
Best bet is to establish yourself with the agency first or search the board and just ask for the SP you know provides. When you meet behind private doors you can discuss services.
