[QUOTE=Pw Herman; 1630870]I work for tips[/QUOTE]
Perhaps she means I work *selectively* for tips?
My reading is that there an assumption that a tip will *always* be given, and that's just poor logic to build on.
My last heated discussion on this topic revealed the girl expected a $20 tip for just a massage. An incredible assumption, based on the $80 house fee. That's a 25% tip, which is reserved for excellent service in my book. A 10-15% tip for "OK" service would be $8-12, centering around $10, and that's for a fairly high house fee.
Her point was that to do anything (that we like) , she would need more motiviation. IOW, given that she normally sees $20 without doing something "yucky" (I'm putting words in her mouth (as opposed to what I really wanted to put in her mouth) , just describing her face as she suffered through The Worst HJ Ever) , she'd expect to see an additional $40 OVER the "normal" $20 before she'll "touch it.". Those were her words.
The ill logic here is that she was constructing a world where everyone gives her $20 for being so beautiful and giving a lousy massage. I don't believe that actually happens, but if she believes that, that's what she's going to tell me and everyone else.
If it were possible to advise them that discussing prices is not in their best interest, legally and still proceed with what we'd like to happen, that would be ideal. But it won't work that way.
And if there's a language barrier, it's even worse.
After reading through BP Body Rubs, and before going for my regular Sunday massage, I decided to give Magic Hands in Plymouth a shot. They have an ad reading "$30/60 min". So I figured how bad could it be for $30. I got there after a long drive, met a very average looking Asian lady who pointed to a sign on the wall that read $30 grand opening, $40 today. I told her what the ad read online and she shook her head, no, no. 40. Now for ten dollars I really couldn't care less, but the ad was there this morning and probably still is. If she was a looker, I might have stayed, no, I would have stayed. But she wasn't so I turned around and walked out. So I still wanted a massage before my regular massage (I do this occasionally) and after reading about all the supposedly "new girls" at 40 Harrison, I called a number that advertises "new girl, Cindy. 22, 105 lbs". Just what the doctor ordered for me. I called and said "I wanted an appointment with the new girl Cindy". The answer I got was "ya, ya, ya, what time you come"? I said "I'll be there in 45 minutes, but I want to see Cindy." "ya, ya, ya, you been here before"? Now I'm thinking she's not even hearing what I'm saying and I should just scratch this whole idea, I know there is no Cindy. Well I got there and of course, no Cindy, no 22 year old, no 105 lbs. But I stayed anyway, Selina was her name and was actually ok, very friendly, accommodating & decent looking. I suppose their ad isn't much worse than all the ads with fake pictures.

I'm encouraged that you walked out, more of us should. In the past I've just given in and got the short end of the stick and pay too much.

I've found that when they decieve you like that it usually ends up being a less than stellar visit. There are too many good places still left with girls that you can have fun with.
I answered an ad last year that read something like beautiful young girl. 25, petite, and so on. When I got there the beautiful young girl turned out to be a lady at least 50, not my idea of young. I left and called the number to tell the person on the phone I had left and was pissed off. She appologized to me and said she would send me to a girl that I would like and at a reduced rate. As it turned out the girl was great, and I'm still getting calls from the person running the place when they get new girls. Sometimes it pays off to complain.

It must've been before their price went up, because they only charged me 30. I will say, there were two women working 30-40 yrs old. The one I got was outstanding. I'm glad there is a decent option on the Spith Shore now. Her name was Jenny or jinny? She gave me one of those cards. Ten visits / one free. (Which I quickly made disappear because I'm married) , but she did tell me regular price was 50 for an hour after this grand opening special. I wouldn't completely give up on this place. I'll be back.
I've been doing this for a long time so old dogs can learn new tricks! I agree with Smoke Screens's way to handle this situation. Thanks for the info.

Just a warning. The shower room is just a a shower. Not a table shower.[/QUOTE]The girls any good, is it worth the trip, struck out RX want to make this one count.
Hello fellow mongers, longtime reader first time poster. Just want to give my 2cents on some of the AMPs in my area.
Wendy in Wakefield: finally back from China. Attractive for an older Asian (maybe late 30's) very nice to talk to, good massage, left happy. Standard 60/40.
Hong in Tewksbury: ok looking for an older Asian, nice T and A. Waaay overrated by some of you guys on her massage skills, and her rates are high 70/40.
Sofia in Wilmington: younger than most in the area, nice to look at, just a little bit of a gut (especially at her age) massage skill ok, teasing is very good, will leave happy 60/40.
Missing Mary from Wilmington and Jenny from Bedford, these were 2 of the best, hope they come back soon.

Went to see Amy in Waltham the other day. I'm not sure where she learned to tell time but 40 minutes is not an hour in my book. I won't be back.
Massage was okay. Not the best, not the worst.
[QUOTE=Mapokaplaya;1632044]Missing Mary from Wilmington and Jenny from Bedford, these were 2 of the best, hope they come back soon.[/QUOTE]Does anyone know where Jenny from Bedford is now? She seems to have been replaced by Lala and others. Her teasing was top notch.
Went to Hot Spring in Newton off of someones advice to see Nancy on Sunday. Unfortunately, Nancy wasn't working but I was in the area and decided to take a dive. Drew I believe June who was actually pretty cute and seemed very flirty upon initial interaction. Massage was absolutely horrible it was more like a soft touching of my body rather than even a semblance of an actual massage. I thought to myself okay this will be fine her entire massage seems to be a tease. During the massage itself she answered the phone on four separate occasions and that's really a pet peeve of mine seeing as there were at least two other girls working. This "teasing" I described was more sensual touching but no where near junior. Upon flip she made no attempt to cover me but continued on with this sensual yet nonsensual teasing. Before I knew it she was like all done and I was quite displeased because not only did I not get a massage but I got no hr. My logic is she must have just been uncomfortable with the situation (though I would have no idea why as I am pretty young and nonthreatening). If there are no extras there there is no way she would be allowed to continue working because she is probably the worst masseuse I've ever had. I assume it was just a function of the situation yet that was my experience.
Looks: 7ish
Massage: 0.
Hr:0.
Paid 60 and I won't return unless people have great things to say about someone else there.
Happy Holidays
