I'm with Hypo on this one
I agree with Hypo. The house fee is to rent the room for 1 hour (no less). It is the provider's job to fill the hour with whatever it is you want. Even YMMV girls are supposed to do things like massage afterwards, chit chat, etc...something to fill the time. If they try to usher you out, then tell them, your time is not up yet. They know.
Also, I understand that MS will knock on the door to "remind" you that it is almost time. You need time to get dressed or rinse off, whatever. But it is annoying when they do it 20 minutes early and the girl says time's up. Just tell them "no, it's not. I still have 20 minutes left." That is just bad customer service. That is why I love Empire so much. Even Tokyo Spa didn't knock during the daytime (I don't know about at night).
[QUOTE=HypoLuxa;2000763]Hi H808... If I may, I do understand the point you intend to make, but I have to respectfully disagree. I don't feel that you can compare AMP services to a restaurant because it is not a restaurant. It is what it is... A massage parlor where you go for "service." That is like comparing apples to oranges.
(*added after initial post) When you go to a movie, you know beforehand how long the movie is that you paid for, or, at the very least, you expect to see the full movie, and not have it end early. Or, when you go to a restaurant, you order off of a menu. You expect to get the full meal, and not have the chef or server only give you 50 to 75% of the meal... or 3/4 through your meal have the server or manager say, "you must leave now," whether you are finished or not.
You pay the mama house fee for one hour (that has always been the case) and you pay the girl for the service. The tip is understood to be within the range you specified. However, there are some variables--It has always been the case that if you the customer pops early, then it is up to the girl to offer you an extra pop for free or for an extra fee. However, one thing is "not" a variable, and that is the time in the room. Is it to be one full hour, no if, ands or buts. If you come early, then the girl at the very least can fill the time with a massage.
That is my understanding that was explained to me by the mamas when I first started mongering. The time is the room is one hour. Everything else is between you and the girl.
If the girl lives up to her end of the bargain by providing the service, then the tip follows the scale 50/10/150 for HJ/BJ/FS respectively with either two pops or massage service to fill out the hour. But, if the mama and or the girl usher you out early against your wishes, then you can either request part of the house fee back and adjust your tip, or if mama won't budge, adjust your tip. It is the only option we have left.
I'm sorry, but there is a standard of service and time that we "all" know is the norm. If the establishment doesn't live up to this, the system breaks down.
Just my thoughts on the subject. No disrespect. Anyone else's thoughts on this?[/QUOTE]
