Are the "lights out in Tucson"?
Went down Speedway. No cars anywhere near AA; in front or next door. Life Spa had only mamasan's Lexus in front. Joy was totally empty only Nico / Linda parked in back. King had the usual grocery store lot traffic. Star Foot Care. Was deserted except for the provider's vehicle. AZ who knows and who cares. Off Grant: S Spa seems to have a pause and will reopen on October 1. Down 1st Ave; Mindy's Lavender had lights out; only sandwich poster board chained gate. Fuzu on Stone no cars except for providers in rear lot. The ladies greeted me like I was Santa. Is there a silent monger boycott? Anyone comment??
Is Katie still at AA, or Tucson in general?
As the title says just curious I haven't been in Tucson for a while.
A good question, Gilligan
The girls tell me that they keep 100% of the tip. And of course, the mamasan doesn't know how much the tip was anyway. And my understanding is that your masseuse gets only $10 or $20 of a one-hour $60 fee, and perhaps none of a $40 half hour. I have never heard of the house laying any claim to any portion of a girl's tip. Others may have heard something different, but I will only say that there are some masseuses that I have seen 15 or 20 times, and they would have no reason to be dishonest with me. Also, sometimes the girls really do get stiffed on the tip after having provided services, although this is rare, at least in the better shops. In some shops the girls are not allowed to demand a tip up front, allowing for the possibility of a dine and dash. In other shops where the negotiation tends to be rather hard-assed, the tip is demanded up front. I tend to not return to these places.
