Consultant or Prostitute?

I orignially found thishere , but the link died, so I'm posting it here.

I stumbled upon this again today when cleaning up bookmarks, and it's starting to feel a bit too real at this moment in my life.

• You work very odd hours.
• You are paid a lot of money to keep your client happy.
• You are paid well but your pimp gets most of the money.
• You spend a majority of your time in a hotel room.
• You charge by the hour but your time can be extended for the right price.
• You are not proud of what you do.
• Creating fantasies for your clients is rewarded.
• It's difficult to have a family.
• You have no job satisfaction.
• If a client beats you up, the pimp just sends you to another client.
• You are embarrassed to tell people what you do for a living. · People ask you what you do and you can't explain it.
• Your family hardly recognizes you at reunions (at least the reunions you attend).
• Your friends have distanced themselves from you and you're left hanging with only other professionals.
• Your client pays for your hotel room plus your hourly rate.
• Your client always wants to know how much you charge and what they get for the money.
• Your pimp drives nice cars like Mercedes or BMWs.
• Your pimp encourages drinking and you become addicted to drugs to ease the pain of it all.
• You know the pimp is charging more than you are worth but if the client is foolish enough to pay it's not your problem.
• When you leave to go see a client, you look great, but return looking like hell (compare your appearance on Monday A.M. to Friday P.M.).
• You are rated on your performance in an excruciating ordeal.
• Even though you get paid the big bucks, it's the client who walks away smiling.
• The client always thinks your cut of your billing rate is higher than it actually is, and in turn, expects miracles from you.
• When you deduct your take from your billing rate, you constantly wonder if you could get a better deal with another pimp.
• Everyday you wake up and tell yourself you're not going to be doing this stuff for the rest of your life.
