I’m a massage therapist and today had to be one of the most embarrassing moments that I’ve had in YEARS 😮💨
So a regular of mine comes in for her typical 90-minute deep tissue. I hit play on what I swear is my “soothing” playlist I use for all my sessions and at first…it was…until it wasn’t.
Literally half way through right as I’m working her upper traps, the current audiobook that I am in the process of listening to on my drive home from yesterday kicks in at full gah damn volume. 🙃
Not just any chapter either or like a normal book, it was the full-on dark romance dominance book I was listening to.
I literally froze. She suddenly gasps out loud. I INSTANTLY lunge for my phone like it’s a damn live grenade, but at that point the damage is done. The narrator is still going full throttle. I finally kill it and switch it back to what was previously playing and say “I am so sorry, that was obviously not supposed to happen,” and finish the massage.
She tips me like normal, thanks me, and leaves. Nothing felt off or odd but I couldn’t help but think I messed up.
I was convinced I was going to lose a long time client but to my surprise she rebooked for later this month so I think I am in the clear but still, soooo awkward 😅
TL;DR: Accidentally blasted a dark romance audiobook mid-massage. Client still booked a future appointment with me so I think I’m in the clear lol
