Yep, Andy is correct. In the late '70s when I was a single parent and struggling, I worked for a Washington, DC escort service. Okay, no snide jokes. It was a legit service and, believe me, even then $37.99 wouldn't have been enough.
It was an interesting job and allowed me to dine at DC's finest eateries, shop in some of the most elegant stores and attend all manner of theatre, etc. The shopping was helping businessmen purchase pricey gifts for their wives/girlfriends. Most of my "dates" were corporate types in the city for business events.
They never knew my real name, nor where I lived. I had an alias and always met them in neutral territory.
Interesting. I think we might tend to equate escort with the oldest profession, and it's not the same profession.
Male escorts are also out there, and might make sense for businesswomen in a strange city.
