Ok I tried everyone and I can't say I quit but let's just say the frustration level is at a boiling point. I had what I thought and was fed to believe was this great job 100% commission and basically making your own schedule. Training should be 5 weeks (in addition to the class I took and test I passed to get my license) and if you follow through things will be great etc. Ok I did that. I did more than that. Thee were 5 newbies and now 3months later there are 2.
Out of those 2 who has had any deals? I have had several deals that have fallen apart because the office is so busy when you ask for assistance instead of walking you through it, its either go see if so and so can help you or just do this. So I have lost a few from lack of attention and time length before I get an answer. So for me I was not as pressed financially as the rest. So they all claim I am going to be great etc its just a matter of time, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So I guess some of the other newbies started crying because hell by now normal people if they had any $$ would be broke for sure. so they decided to offer us a salary. Whoop de do!!! Not to me because I know salary means you now have to report in and be accountable. And the salary in all honesty after taxes and social security is nothing to me. I was making that much when I was contracted to VT and only had to work like 2 days a month! So now you seriously want me to drive 35miles each way and be there like 5days a week 8 or 8+ hours a day?
So my motivation has begun to wander and I get to work but somewhere between 10-noon but again that was never the plan! I would not have signed on. I could get a job same pay if that is all I wanted that is a whole lot closer to home.
Now they hit me with "We all think you are going to be amazing" blah blah blah 'but we want to change your position again'... Huh what the f**k? Now they want to drop the salary by 15K and up the commission but make me the manager's assistant basically. They call it coordinator I say assistant for 12months. Now you know if I am the managers assistant I will now really have to be in the office daily without question and to me at the moment commission is like air because I cant see it!LOL:) so no matter what they are giving me on commission it doesn't commute. If I had the free time before to cultivate the business according to their play book and it hasn't grown so far now you want me to take a pay cut and 'learn the business' for 12months. No one ever said it would take that long.
I can admit it. I think I made a mistake trying to venture outside of my field or maybe I should've never believed the hype they sold me during the interview process but I am frustrated for sure. I hate to be a quitter but this is some for real BS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! One thing is for sure though I am still not doing any videos. I have learned through all this I can get a job with my eyes closed and to most society standards I think that is middle class pay but that is not what I am looking for. I need career and higher level pay. So I am still there but I will be 'respectfully' declining the latest scenario so we will see what happens.
The Real World Really Really Really Sucks!!!!
Kisses,
Ayana

Sounds like they have been lying to you. Not much of a future there. Maybe its time to get out now.
What kind of work do you want exaxtly? You need to decide what it is you want and go after it and do not except anything less. It may take some time to find that perfect fit, so accepting jobs that don't really fit want you're looking for will always lead to you not being satisfied with them. I think you are going about this the wrong way, you should use your celebrity status to market yourself in the industry you became well known for. You don't have to be starring in porn videos to make the business work for you. Here is a suggestion for you, Ayana Angel name is marketable, I think you should gather some of your fine girlfriends who have been in the business being escorting or porn and unite together to service all of North America. I don't know if you are aware that there is a need for top quality black women adult providers at affordable rate, some cities lack those services and has a need for top quality black females like yourself who provide a great experience. I know in my city alone I myself and several of the professionals which I work with find there is a need for top quality black escorts. Some of the clubs we visit are lacking or never have any high quality black performers. Do you think it would be possible for you to market girls in several of the major cities and make it profitable. I've had the fortune of meeting you through the Eros website, the type of service you provide is what men want. At the end of our engagement, I left knowing that everytime you are in my city I want to see you. Unfortunately, that type of service is not provided by a large amount of providers. There is a market out there that is not being tapped, I think you are capable and intelligent and know the business well enough to pull it off. I would love to be able to have regular access to girls who provide the same top quality service you provide and not have to wait for you to visit my city. I think you should test the market in your home city of Atlanta, because it's a hot market and since you aren't always available in Atlanta guys would love to keep company with women who are going to give them the same type of satisfaction you provide. I personally think AYANA ANGELS GIRLS would be a success.
I some what agree with the comment made by Shawn. I think you need to establish your own business. Whether it is in the adult entertainment field or opening a coffee shop. You are never going to be happy with working a job. That is not rewarding to you.
But it is what do you really want at the end of the day.
Yes I think it would be a great ideal to have your own business. You seem to have a great personality and that goes a long way. Maybe you can open up a adult novelity shop. I know Atlanta may have a lot of them but you can venture another city or town and open up one where you can corner the market. If you are not wanting to have any part in the adult business, maybe you can start your own clothing line. With the popularity you have, you could be very successful.
I like the idea of Ayana Angel Girls. Let me know when they are available in my city, Chicago. Every city need women that provide services like yours. High quality black women at affordable rates!
Hey Ayana,
Yeah, you have major smarts, so, you will find what it is you're looking for career wise. At the end of the day, the only person you have to answer to is Ayana. It is great that you tried this gig. If our brains are open to it, we learn new things all the time.
Hey, about the contest, I don't meet a couple of your criteria, unfortunately. I am still a big fan and enjoyed talking with you for quite some time back in Cali in 2003. You were real, not stuck up, and showed your human side. I could be cool just being your friend. And I am a super loyal person and not a nerd or geek.
My age is 57, I moved to the ATL in 2004, and my looks are above average. Income over $100 K. Hey, hit me up. You will have a friend for life. Peace Out.
