Status: Independent Contractor

Your status at Donna's is as an Independent Contractor. Some of what that means is that you will be issued a 1099 tax form at the end of the year. You are responsible for paying your own employment taxes. Contact your tax service for advice and more information.

As an Independent Contractor, you will sign an agreement with Donna's that will cover the terms and conditions of your length of employment. You are responsible for reading and understanding this agreement, in detail, and any other additions to this agreement that may be made in the future.

Licensing and Medical

Independent Contractors/Working Girls are required by the State of Nevada to get a medical clearance and a license to conduct their business. This process is easily done and is mandatory.

The medical clearance consists of having a culture done and blood drawn. These are sent to the lab for examination and the clearance is issued to Donna's in approximately one working days. After your medical clearance is issued you will go to the local police station where you will get your license.

The licensing process consists of you bringing or faxing your medical clearance to the police station and being fingerprinted. Your fingerprints are required by the licensing agent to provide information as to any criminal history that is outstanding. If there is anything outstanding, you will not clear, therefore, you will not be able to work (see the document that is included with your work agreement for more details on this subject). It is also required that you bring a picture identification with you. There are fees involved with your medical clearance and licensing that you are responsible for paying. At this time, they are as follows:

Medical:
Culture: 40.00
Blood: 30.00

License: 50.00

The medical is an ongoing expense as follows:

Once a week, you will either visit a clinic or a medical doctor will come to the house and you will get a culture done. Blood test are done monthly. This process is both required by the State of Nevada and for your medical safety. This expense is part of your costs as an independent contractor, therefore, may be taken off your taxes at the end of the year.
You will not be able to work if you do not maintain medical clearance.

Room and Board

You will be provided with a private room and your meals while working at Donna's at a minimum cost per day. Your room is your "office" in which you conduct your business. It should be kept clean and orderly and supplied, both for your comfort and for the comfort of your guests. You are responsible for keeping your room clean, washing your bedding, etc. You can make arrangements with the bar manager on duty to do this service for you for an agreed upon tip. Otherwise, your room is your responsibility.

Keep in mind that the owners/managers have invested time and money in creating a certain quality and standard of living for you to enjoy and work in. Your position is to maintain this standard.

Meals are prepared for you daily. There are rules of conduct that apply to the kitchen because, although this is your house, it is also a business and the kitchen is part of that business. As in any other areas of the house, the kitchen facilities are to be maintained in a clean manner. You are responsible for cleaning up after yourself, even though there is a cook and a bar manager on duty, we are a team. In order for you to be successful, the team must be successful. That will only come about if we all accept responsibility for our actions and do our part.

General Procedures

There is a time-proven process that is established in this business that provides you with practical knowledge you will need in order to conduct your business. The following is an outline:

While at Donna's, you will be expected to conduct yourself in a manner that is both professional and ethical. Anything less is unacceptable. Examples of unacceptable behavior would include: dirty hustling, unwillingness to abide by house guidelines, offensive behavior of any kind towards fellow employees, staff, management, or customers. Stealing and/or drug use, This behavior puts everyone at risk and must be avoided. It will also be reason for termination. Remember: you share these facilities with fellow workers and your conduct affects them and the atmosphere of the house. You are courtesans, conduct yourself accordingly.

Supplies

The following is a list of basic supplies you will need to provide at your own expense:

Condoms: There will be no sexual activity, of any kind, without the use of condoms. This is a State law and will be strictly adhered to.

Lubricants: There are many different kinds on the market, choose one you prefer and keep some in your supply.

Baby Wipes: These are multi-purpose and convenient to use. When processed with Betadine and Peroxide, they provide a measure of immediate sanitization for you and your customer. Good investment.

House supplies you will need to keep in your room include:

"Trick" sheet, towel and washcloth.

"Trick sheets": These are flat sheets and are located on the shelf in the laundry room. You will use a clean sheet for each date. You use these by spreading them out over your bed so you and the customer can lay on them. This helps prevent your bed linens from becoming soiled. After your date ends and you have escorted them to the bar, you take your trick sheet and put it in the laundry basket in the laundry room and get a clean one to bring back to your room.

Personal Garbage: Since you will be using condoms, baby wipes and other disposable items during a date, keeping your garbage emptied is a necessity and just good hygiene. No customer likes to go in your room and see used condoms, etc. from the previous date, laying in your garbage can, so it is imperative that you dispose of your garbage after every date. There is a designated garbage can for all your personal waste located outside the kitchen door. You must not dispose of your waste in the "common" garbage cans, it's against the Health Code. Disposing of your garbage after each date is easily done when you take your trick sheet to the laundry room. Just tie your garbage off, take it with you and put it in the can outside the kitchen door.

Towel/Washcloth: It is a good idea to keep a clean towel and a washcloth hanging in your room at all times. Customers may want to wash up either before and/or after the date. And, it is convenient for you, as well.
