...company lurks n perks....maybe it was in their employment contract like a company car...

I'm sure it happens with other companies too....there are business men who like their masseurs/hookers when they travel and it is taken as a given to provide them...it is seen as the norm ... well at least to have contact details of reputable ones in case their services are needed

I have read that business women have been getting into it as well when they travel...it's not longer totally a mans world

Methinks the Libs would have no probs getting their new industrial policy changes readily accepted if they made the above mandatory for all companies..... hey prostitution was legal the last time I looked :kiss

BTW. we wouldn't discriminate between the sexes...fair is fair.:bounce
