Being Sgt. Schultz....

Den of the Beastly Bear

Hi Folks!

Ok, the title is an obscure reference to a comedy show that takes place in a WWII concentration camp, but bear with me. If you watched "Hogan's Heroes" you'll get it!

So my Boss came to me with a quandary...but first a little back story.

Here in the Detroit Metro area we have a website called Backpage.

Think Craigslists' bluer brother...when Craigslist tightened constraint's on "personals" the "friends for hire" moved to Back page.

It has been on the news a lot here lately as a couple of escourts were murdered by a man they made an appointment with.

So my Boss tells me he and a buddy were having a few beers over the weekend, when talk turned to current events. 

When they hit upon the "Backpage Murders" each asked the other if they had ever looked at any of the ads there? Both being single consenting adults.

So they got out the laptop to go exploring! 

And explore they did...until they came across the daughter of another buddy they used to work with!
They'd met her enough to recognize her!

Her ad said she was "adventurous" and "open minded"(you know what THAT means, right? Lol), and that her company could be had for $100 a half hour or $175 for an hour! (She discounts!!!)

At first they couldn't believe it could be her...so they went to her Facebook page and sure enough there were some of the same pictures as for the ad, though of course she had used a different name!

Their quandary is this: Tell or don't Tell?

The daughter is in her 20's and they don't know if she still lives at home or not as the ad said "out call only".

Now as a father I think I'd want to know, on the other hand would I want my buddies to be the ones to tell me?!?

Then there is the "Well what the HELL were YOU doing going through ads for 20yr. Olds?!?" Factor.

Finally, they took the cowards way out and decided they saw nothing!  Lol

Like Sgt. Schultz!!! "I know nothing, NOTHING!!! I see nothing!!!"

So let's hear it folks, would you tell your friend if you found out their daughter was earning money the oldest fashioned way? 

Be Well!
