for what it's worth, maybe a year ago or so, I had to talk to the booker while I was near the place and it was a guy who called me. By that point, I already knew it was a different person than what I assumed was a woman before due to the change in how the texts were handled and the tone of the texts, but didn't know it was a man until that call.
A day or so later, he also msged me to ask personal details to screen me again, despite having already seen the girl and said it was the owners' instructions. Kind of odd, but it wasn't an issue and I never gave it much thought. Still don't know what that was about.
