I was doing house cleaning and life organizing for a… man. He tried to have me snuggle him while on the clock. I quoted a rate three times higher for that, and he complained that he could get a massage from one of those “Oriental girls” for that price, so I should at least make out with him.
I could have just called him a dirty old man.
In any case, he has an in-law unit he wanted to rent out to make passive income. He wanted my help finding a tenant because he only wanted to rent to a single woman in her twenties.
I asked why. I regretted asking because he apparently had a fantasy that he would woo the tenant and they would live happily ever after.
I signed him up for a dating website instead and spent quite a while, on the clock, helping him sound worth dating. I even took a nice picture where he looked cute. He is rotund and balding, with less than ideal hygiene. He sort of looked like a frog normally, but frogs can be cute.
When I returned to work next, he complained that no one had responded.
He was only looking at women under thirty. I set his search parameters to between fifty-five and seventy-five since he was at least in his sixties.
He complained that older women weren’t attractive. I told him he needed to learn to see their beauty or get really comfortable being alone.
I also suggested that he look in the mirror before going on the website, every time, and then aim for a similar level of attractiveness.
I didn’t keep working for him long after that.
