Kezza, don't worry about the boys above... they are just joking around about eachother... plus your post did need a little more information from the start, now hopefully you will get your answers, and welcome to the board!!!
Someone had just e-mailed me about my past post on "Heidi" so this was my response to them... and yes, no resume required... as well as other things see below... as far as I was concerned it was my you know what on the line not hers...
I am going to be very honest with you, even though I don't know you, but hopefully I am sticking up for all massage therapists out there. If you also noticed on that post, I took the conversation off line for privacy. The reason being, I worked for a woman named "Heidi" no last name, only a phone number. She never explained the "deal" to me previous to the event. I was fresh out of school and not licensed yet, but able to work in NJ (no requirements at the time), not NY. I did one event for her in NJ, that was my first and last, due to the disrespect she had for her therapists. She wanted me at the event at 5 PM, a place that was over an hour away, didn't tell me that I was only expecting 1 client who I massaged on my table for 30 minutes, I ended up getting 2 other 30 minute massages. I then waited till the concert was over, more than 5 hours later, not knowing that I shouldn't have stayed that long, had to then drive another 2 hours to get home because of the horrible road conditions. She then continued to call me repeatedly to get me to work at venues in NYC, which every time she called I told her, I don't have my license and will not be working anywhere in NY until I do. She then wanted a huge perceneforum.xxxe of my income from that 1 event, including what was tipped beyond her $1 per minute rate, which is well below the going rate in NYC metro area. I ended up making about $5-10 per hour after her cut. So in the end, never deal with this woman and hopefully she has realized that she needs to lose my phone number.
Oh and another problem I had with her, is that I needed to get a babysitter, and she kept wanting to know at that point in time if I would do the job, I would tell her this, call her back, and sorry we got someone else to do it... especially when she would call the day of, or the day before... and expect me to be available at her beck and call.
My suggestion is, go to http://www.amtamassage.org they have a locator service for massage therapists. Type in the Zip code of the venue and limit it to find someone who does chair massage. Call the therapist directly and make a deal with them, believe me you both will be a lot happier in the end. Don't work through one of these services unless you have been referred to one of them and then even so be leery.
