@grumble209 YES! THIS! This was the guy's job.
hardcopy is forever
***trivia: I once met someone whose job was lecturing on interesting topics on cruise ships. On the off season, he spent his time wooing/bedroom surfing the mansions of wealthy divorced and windowed 80- and 90-year olds. 🤷 He admitted (and apparently quite enjoyed) his job was mostly flirting and/or bedding extremely rich women a decade or two older than him. 🤷
@ai6yr welcome to dating the Santa Barbara way.
@ai6yr what if Speed 2 but Dirty Rotten Scoundrels
@ai6yr sounds consensual, and everyone deserves to have fun. lol
@bolderbekah No one was complaining, not at all 🤷
@ai6yr On the ship I worked on, we had "gentleman hosts" who were older guys with good suits, knew all the ballroom dance styles, and who's job was to dance with the widows. Those guys would discretely hook up with the widows. It had to be discrete, because if the widows thought they were being snubbed for a dance they'd raise hell with the Entertainment Director or even the Cruise Director. Those poor guys danced non-stop every set, except the late set after the main show - by 10:30 the widows were tired.
This was Cunard line - way too pricey for mortals, and the widows were typically quite demanding. We played 2 or 3 sets of ballroom dance music every day. It was invaluable as education for n00bs like me, but the old timers in the band were bored and/or drunk.
