  • I knew a guy that was really into his hookers from sex worker sites and the prices he’d say were shockingly cheap. He got regularly checked out, and after years of doing this (at least 5) the guy says the only STD he’s ever got was chlamydia, which was in his “pre-hooker days”.

    That’s all to say that you’re probably fine, but you should definitely get tested for peace of mind. If they’re sex workers by trade, they’re probably on top of the testing themselves.

    People that work on-call do this, especially in tech or security.

    I’m considering making the switch because my paging calls are from a random set of phone numbers, so I cannot attach a specific ringtone to them. After a few horrible pages, you start to associate your phone going off as a world-ending experience, when it’s just your wife calling to ask if you want her to pick something up for you from the shop. A separate device that disassociates my phone from pain would be nice.
