When SW and I agree on something, you might find it as the lead story on CNN.
By all means tip whatever you want. No one is telling you what to do with your money. However, I really do not see the point. I agree that the excellent therapists work hard and should be tipped well. But, when you reach the level of +50% it seems excessive. Maybe you are A) trying to help someone in need B) enjoy feeling like Bill Gates C) trying to get into her pants.

Well said. You're fooling yourself if you think paying extra will get you more than a tug the next time with any Orlando AMP. You've got the wrong town. For the record, I've been asked out for drinks several times by AMPs, not once was it because I left a big tip.
[QUOTE=Dr Kool]Hey Buddy,
Ignore the advice from the cheapos on this forum and TIP as you see fit. Don't let anyone dictate to you what to do with your money. If you got great service and deemed it reasonable to leave a generous tip then go for it. I do the same thing and have been rewarded for it by the therapist.
I am all for rewarding the therapist if the service merits it. So I will stand with you on this one! The hell with the cheapos. That is the main reason they end up servicing themselves most of the time. And then they leave a tip. How ridiculous is that.
Stay Safe!
DK[/QUOTE]Thanks for your support! I had no idea that posting the tip I gave would cause so much stress. I'd just like to say in response to some of the more unfavourable comments that I didn't give that tip with the intention of screwing things up for everyone else. Also, I never gave that tip because I was expecting a whole lot more next time and I am certainly NOT delusional.
If I tip 20% in a restaurant that's not because I may get a free meal next time. I do it because the service was better than average. Some people get an average service and leave nothing or 10%. Does that screw things up for anyone else?
In the past in an AMP I have left nothing even though I got a service. Does that screw it up for anyone else? Maybe that means the girl needs to improve her technique. I could say to all you guys who left. 4 for a "so so" massage, don't screw it up for all us guys as if you tip her for a cr*p service she does not need to try!
Fact was this service was exceptional and the mistake I made was to report the tip I left. I don't know why I did it other than it seemed the norm on here. It was also I guess meant to say how good I thought the service was to tell everyone else. It was my opinion and it was my money.
I'm not trying to set any new standard nor am I trying to tell people how to spend their money. AND, I'm certainly not trying to screw things up for anyone else.
Take it easy out there guys.
Old joke, serious topic. My philosophy on tipping is that I tip well for exceptional service. I tip 10% for the basics. I do not expect the therapist to do more on another visit because of a previously generous tip. I tip well to encourage a superior level of service.
For those who feel that a 50% tip is an outrage, stop taking your medicine with alcohol. It is just a bad idea (Lighten up: it was a joke). Tipping is up to the individual. We are not tipping waitresses when we go to MPs. There are not enough therapists out there to start a new trend: expect a 50% tip all the time.
Finally, tipping is an individual courtesy. Tip what YOU feel is correct (or not at all) based upon your experience. The best therapists take care of their customers, and want them to come back (and encourage their friends to return). Give them a tip to encourage the best service, and likewise, withhold a tip to discourage the bad ones out there.
Now let's get back to the business at hand (MP reports) and be safe.

Here's my tip. I do not tip to encourage new or better behavior on the next visit, I tip because I had great service and I want the therapist to remember me and tell her friends. That is why servers in restuarants know who I am on the second time I visit. You give a server a 30-40% after great service, you will ALWAYS get extras that more than make up for it. I don't think big tips raise the expectations for everyone, but it always guarantees I get that "top drawer" service again the next time. Now if they provide average service they will get 20%. Poor service 0%. Now for the lady the pushes the right buttons, the sky is the limit!

I can and will do as I please with my MONEY. I don't need no one to dictate how I spend my money. And just because I feel like being generous that does not mean I am DUMB.
That’s the problem with some of the Seniors on this forum. They think that because they have a "SENIOR TITLE" They Are The "GODS" of this forum. They also think that just because they have a Senior Status they can Control and Dictate the WHO, WHAT, WHEN AND WHERE on this forum. WHO we TIP and HOW much we TIP.
COME DOWN OFF YOUR HIGH HORSE BUDDY. Don’t criticize a person and call them names just because you don't agree with what they want to Tip. I won't stoop down to your level and call you DUMB! Or any other childish names this is not what this forum is for.
GENTLEMAN 100 said it right. I am 100% in agreement with him. That is good sound advice. .
My TIP reflects the level of service I received and my level of satisfaction. So there is nothing you can say that will change that. .
I am a generous Guy! And I TIP as I see FIT. If you don’t like it or it RUBS you and others the wrong way. Well that’s just too BAD. .
Be Generous Guys!

Ok.......... back to the real topic. So I forgot to mention this in my last post regarding my visit to ASSA. When I was getting my massage she left the door open, also she put a light then cloth over my body while she was massaging me. Both of these things is something new to me, is this common for ASSA or was it just the girl I got (Kim).
[QUOTE=Sponge Worthy]My heart tells me that a 20% tip is pretty fucking good. If I tip $20 on an $80 massage, then that's more than pretty fucking good. A $40 tip is 50%. Jesus, guys. Do some math here.
I get the feeling that some of you are so desperate for a woman's touch that you'll empty your wallet and giggle all the way. Do some of you think that over-tipping is a way to buy her love and affection? Get over it.
You can tip what you want. It's your money. I just suspect that a number of you a suffering from delusion.[/QUOTE]Allow me to be candid. "Dude You Sound like a Broken Record! ". Stop the Whining. No one is over-tipping, No one is trying 2 buy affection, No one is suffering from delusion.
We get the point. You are a $20 Man! And A Cheap SOB. Some of us are past that so Stop trying to convert everyone on this board.
Looks like you are the only one suffering. Seems like it hurts you every time someone mentions they Tipped more than $20 Norm.
Be generous out there!

DK[/QUOTE]Thanks again for your support. I guess everyone is entitled to their opinion and opinions are personal just like tips. One mans standard service is another man's heaven I suppose.
I am a generous guy and one time I gave a lot of money to a charity that Shania Twain supported. I got to meet Shania and chat to her and she gave me a nice cuddle and a kiss. Nothing sexual or anything like that. She's a singer not a prostitute. My point is that what goes around comes around and sometimes being generous gets you things you don't expect.
Some guys on here moan that they get nothing, well maybe that 's because they don't treat the lady right.
I have a therapist that comes to my home and gives me everything. She's become a friend now. I met her in a MP and her first tips were $10. Her service was good but not great. She then got better and I tipped more. She is now fantastic and she gets no tip but a good rate!
Ha ha re the $100 tip. Yeah, I might just report that! I don't see that coming anytime soon but who knows!
I apologize for the time between my posts. However, I recently awoke to discover that I had dreamed that I visited this place two times during the last month. There was something different with each dream as there was a different girl there each time.
The first girl in the dream had the same name as the season that comes after Spring and before Fall. In my dream she was awesome at her job.
Looks 7/10
TS 9/10
Body 7/10
.8 door .4 tip
left very happy, but not prior to juggling a couple of beautiful globes. I would repeat, if my juggling skills do not deteriorate.
The second dream occurred when I returned to visit my "seasonal" friend from the first dream, but I heard mamasan's voice tell me, "Sorry she on vacation." I then have this vivid memory of a cereal that I used to eat when I was a kid called "Coco" Puffs. Coco left a wonderful memory. During my dream, although I could not taste Coco, I do remember seeing how the cereal liked to be taken care of when it is all by itself. It was almost as if the bowl levitated above me so that I wouldn't miss a thing. Of course, no cereal is good without milk, but I digress.
Looks 9/10
TS 10/10
Body 9/10
.8 door .6 tip
Left very happy, with the sweet smell of Coco all over my hands. Would repeat.

LOL, good lord dude. Step out side and cool down. Nobody really cares that much. Tip a million bucks if you want. Tip $50 bucks. Honestly nobody cares. I'm just saying I'd never tip that much. $30 - $40 seems plenty for the type of massage you get in Orlando. Anything more than that is either generous or stupid, but that totally depends on the person leaving the tip.
Now go get a massage. Sounds like you need it.
I decided to stop in and see Pearl. I took the 1 hour appointment. As usual, I took a quick under-carriage wash. When I got back to the room, Pearl took over.
She is outstanding in the therapeutic massage department. I was sore and she pulled and kneaded all of the stress and soreness out of me. Outstanding. I left very relaxed and happy.
Pearl:

Looks: 9.8/10
Enthusiasm: 10/10
Devotion to Craft: 10/10
Attention to Detail: 10/10
Overall Experience: A++
House Fee: $90
Tip: $500*
*What. Was that too much? Of course I did not tip that much. Since there are many that are so worried about tips, I won't divulge that amount.
Be safe.

I think it must have been your first time with Kim. She was probably just warming up to you and being careful. It gets better.
