Having a phone sex job and working from home
We asked an active phone sex operator from London to share with us how is it like to have a phone sex job by working from home. She reveals what's really going on on the other end of the line - from what she does during calls to what clients ask her to do and how much money does she actually make.
I've been working as a phone sex operator for over 5 years and I never met anyone I work with, not even my boss.
How does someone decide to become a phone sex operator?
I was always dreaming of a life where I had no worries about what I will eat tomorrow, buy nice clothes, jewellry and drive a nice car. So once I finished high school, I immediately realized that I had to find some sort of work I could do from home, because a 9 to 5 job in the UK will never bring me enough money to live the fancy life style I crave for.
I saw interesting an ad on Red-Life about a phone sex job - all you had to do was to leave a message and you would be hired based on how your voice sounds. The manager liked my voice and I got hired and could start the next day, even though they haven't saw me or anything... I didn't mind that, because I was a little bit afraid that someone might recognize me and I didn't wanted to tell anyone about my new erotic job.
I work from home and I have a headset plugged into a landline, because we are not allowed to use cell phones. I also have my laptop or tablet on so I can quickly reference any fetish I've never heard of.
I can do housework while I'm waiting for calls
Because the calls aren't back to back, I can do homework, dinner or drink a coffee while I'm waiting, but usually I stay in the room whenever I can so that I can shut the door for complete concentration. Sometimes it's very hard to hear anything on the phone, because callers are either hiding from their families or they're calling from different countries, like Germany, Italy or Hungary .
I enjoy talking to people. Some of them don't ask for much, just to talk and be heard. Almost all of my callers have manners, I rarely hang up on someone.
Whenever someone calls me and I can't hear them, I keep them on the phone and paint my nails or draw something... This is the best way to make money!
Female customers are the worst
Occasionally I get calls from females. Ironically, but female customers are the worst - I can't keep them on the phone. They go straight into the line, asking what I would do to them and when I ask what do they like...click. They hang up.
For every hour I'm logged in, I get about 20 to 30 minutes worth of talk time, and I only get paid when I'm talking. Sometimes I have to wait three to four hours between calls, but trust me - it's all worth it. I'm not saying it's always easy, but if you are a "chatter" - like me, this is the best erotic job for you.
Being a phone sex operator is like being a psychologist, you just have to listen and ask questions. The "patient" just sits and opens his heart to you.
