The Crafty one's will find a way arount the new regs.
[QUOTE=RGar455;6898161]I'll be surprised if this law scares away that many parlors. They're pretty crafty and probably anticipate laws like these. The volume of AMPs in this state is pretty insurmountable and I don't see the state having the time and competency to shut them all down or enforce this as strictly as we fear.
I know some places like Tampa have "aromatherapy shops" so they may change names or nature of services offered if it gets to be a problem.[/QUOTE]I imagine many of the places will not ask for I'd if they know you are a regular. But if someone new walks in they may have you fill in the form until they get to know you better. IDK.
Racial Profiling (shame on us) Florida "elected" officials
[QUOTE=ForestGreen213;6898731]The establishment will be required to "RECORD" in English or spanish and "VERIFY" the "CLIENTS" name address and phone number before services can be rendered. The only way anyone can verify your name and address is with state issued I'd. No idea how they would verify your phone number. Either way things are going to get rough for these businesses pretty fast because I don't see anyone giving up their Id.[/QUOTE]Must be in English or Spanish?? What about our fine outstanding Asian American friends and citizens! Our elected officials are very very prejudiced bigots!!
Are they really concerned about HT'ing

Bit confused with the part where the 'clients' must be identified with all their PI. I really don't disagree with record keeping for Employees and Owners as applicable or even with the 'dress code' or the silly rules on windows and doors and I can sort of see how that might. Just might deter the exploitation of some workers. But I DON'T see how recording a client's personal information. Including phone number and home address!! That isn't going to do squat to deter exploitation. But it will force many of these places to close down due to just a lack of business. And THAT makes me wonder. WHO really is behind this. Cause I don't think it has anything to do with LE. But perhaps its another 'profession' that has seen a cut into their 'business profits'. This Bill needs to be challenged in the Courts and at a minimum. That recording of 'client' information needs to be removed. That right there will be the reason many shops will choose to just close as business dries up. Even if they are compliant in all the others. Sort of. Just my thoughts.
Wickham & Lake Washington
Does anyone know anything about the massage place in the Publix center at Wickham Rd and Lake Washington? I think it's called Health Ways. It is next to the Joe's Bagel. Are there any FS massage places in that area?
Are they really checking I'd's?
[QUOTE=Spokes;6950467]Same thing in Arizona. Nobody ever used their real name (maybe morons) and nothing ever happened that I saw. Scare tactics. Do the ladies in the AMPs strike you as someone who understands and follows the state statutes? Most put down the sheriff's or gov's name. They still do the usual LEO stuff so stupid can still cost you.[/QUOTE]Anyone partake since the 1st? Just wondering what the compliance level is like.
