Reading this thread makes me so sad! This hasn't happened to me in a LONG time. I learned early on to quickly count the donation. I always have the gentleman leave it in plain sight upon arrival and then when he goes to the bathroom to use mouthwash / shower etc I count it. I am sorry but no HONEST gentleman is going to mind you checking that you are compensated correctly. I am sure he would be pretty upset if his check was short on payday. If someone is the type to get upset that you are verifying your compensation, he is not the kind of client you want. Best of luck going forward, Mama!
