[QUOTE=SaintChuck;2804646]I took a ride over to Geneva tonight for the Chinese New Year special. I walked in and was greeted by a woman who was between 40 and 45 with curly hair. She took me to the room and I handed her. 8 for the 90 minute special. She had no clue what I was talking about and we spent about 5 minutes arguing about the CL ad because it was obvious that nobody told her about it. I finally just told her to forget it that I was leaving, and the she grabbed my arm and said "No No No. " At this point she left and I could hear her talking in the hallway in Chinese. After a minute the door opens and it was everybody's favorite MT, she came in and gave me a hug and asked me what was going on. I explained to her what was going on and she told me she would fix it. After a few minutes the older lady came back and started her rub. During the first few minutes she kept yawning so I offered to give her a massage. This didn't go so well because she was so tired she didn't want me to stop. She also had really dry skin so I had to spend like 15 minutes putting lotion on her and rubbing it into her dry skin. The very little part of the session that was for me, sucked. She was a total clock watcher and her hand technique could be best described as painful. I probably won't be able to go to an AMP for a week now because I am raw from her savage treatment of my little guy. The worst part about the whole thing is knowing that the All-Star was working and I ended about with a the league player. SaintChuck.[/QUOTE]Did you catch her name?

I don't make appointments there anymore. I made two in the past and they were both cancelled just as I pulled in the parking lot. The first one because a monger wanted to extend their time and the other one because the monger was late.
If they are busy when I go, I end up going somewhere else.
[QUOTE=SaintChuck;2806985]I agree what you are saying about making appointments, but the 2 times I have tried to make appointments at 2 different AMP's, the language barrier was just too much to overcome. The women on the phone would just keep repeating the same phrases "See you soon honey" or "You come now honey. " I also agree that it is probably not a good idea to show up at the end of their 12 hour shift and expect great service. I have found that the best service is very early in the day. I guess it is true, early bird get's the worm. The problem is that between work and other obligations I can't alway's show up at an AMP at 10 AM on a Monday, even though this would be the ideal time. I have also had nights that I showed up at an AMP later then I would like because of the fact that I went to 3 other AMP's and was told that it would be a 1 hour wait. So by the time I finally get to an AMP that has a girl available it is 8 or 8:30. As I reported 2 week's ago, I had to go to 3 different AMP's before I could finally get a session at a place that had a girl available, and this was on a Wednesday night. So I ended up at an AMP that I didn't want to be at and had a lousy time to top things off. I guess the only solution is just to tell my boss that I just can't work Monday's anymore.

SC, I've read your recent reviews and you seem to have the worst service at AMPs. Either you give off a bad vibe or you need to change your strategy. Twice I've seen the same curly hair girl at Geneva and had a great TS and massage each time. I agree her english isn't good but that can be said for 90% of the girls who work at AMPs. She was very sweet and definitely not a clock watcher. I think she has potential to over take their most popular MT.

Also I don't think that we had the same woman in Geneva, because you stated that your girl was in her 20's, and the girl I had was probably 45. So we didn't have the same girl. In January I had a very happy visit to Geneva with everyone's favorite MT. If you want you can PM me and I will tell you her name, but there is no way we had the same girl. SaintChuck.

Timing Maybe?
It is curious how the same (maybe?) person delivers a great massage for one person and a poor one for the other person. I guess everyone is saying the same thing. Like DMichaels, I normally go as early as possible. A couple before the shop opens. Girl lets me in the back door so the owner does not know I'm there. One place, I went every single weekday at 8:30, and I would book a 10:00 appointment. So we would have breakfast and "play" for 90 minutes before the appointment actually began. I use WeChat to confirm with the girl and the phone to confirm the appointment with the owner.
But, as was also stated here, certain times and certain days are traditionally slow. If you go early on a Tuesday, you may have more time than if you go a Saturday night. Maybe. So The Saturday girl is tired. Maybe busy and looking at the clock. The tenth dick of the day is probably less interesting than the first of the day. And, SChuck, if you really really want a specific woman, make sure and plan accordingly. Bob.

Swiss New Year Special
They were still honoring the New Year special as of yesterday. I followed up on recent recommendation about new girl there and was not disappointed. And if you like a very good massage, by a cute young and very pleasant AMP, you will like her too. Did not once ask for a tip. English is very bad. Not a whole lot else to report but Seniors can PM for additional info.

Small observation
If I'm setting up an appointment, I usually text. The AMP's pretty much all operate off modern phones, so they can take a normal text, run it through an online translation program, and no language barrier. Doesn't stop them from cancelling if a customer decides to opt for a longer session, but it does spare you the frustration of having to try to explain what you're wanting without the required language skills on either end of the conversation.

Bob Special
What? You get to go before the shop opens and get to "play" with the girl for 90 minutes even before your actual appointment begins. Thats more like a "Bob special" I doubt would get extended to others. LOL.

Lake Spa / Main Spa /
Its my understanding that this place may close soon because of the lack of business which is not surprising.

Special
Yes you are correct. She's a close friend. Legit masseuse. Driving lessons, hotel rooms, trips into Chicago. She's the one who was threatened and I spent 11 hours with that one time. I see her 4-5 days a week, several hours a day. Refuses to accept tips, so I buy groceries and she cooks for me. It's not a business relationship at all. Bob.

Lake Spa
[QUOTE=DMichaels69;2813434]Its my understanding that this place may close soon because of the lack of business which is not surprising.[/QUOTE]It would not be a surprise if they closed. When I drive by there at night I never see any vehicles there. The parking situation there is just awful, and I am sure that a lot of people aren't interested in going to the AMP that holds the Kane county record for most times getting busted. The other problem they might have is the fact that they are a very short drive from 6 other AMP's. I never understood how all these places could stay open in an area that has pretty low population rates. SaintChuck.

Being that many of these girls "live" in the spa for weeks on end I would ask to see her after work. I would get there maybe 10 minutes after closing and she would usually ask me to give her a TS after a hard days work, followed by a massage and then we would lay down and watch some tv together and mess around. I did this with maybe 4 girls and was busy every week for over a year with them. Total cost $0. Of course, I would bring them gifts to show my appreciation and sometimes we would go out to dinner or something.
That was about 3 years ago and I am still "friends" with all of them however 2 of them are now out of state but they call every week. The other 2 still work doing massage here in Chicago but I don't see them much anymore because my life has changed, but we still talk every week and get together every once in a while. They are truly wonderful and nice girls.
It pays to be nice to them. You don't have to marry them but many are truly lonely and really appreciate a true friendship.

Valid Point
It never occurred to me that the AMP girls practically "live" in the Spa. Perhaps they have very limited social life outside of the Spa. I guess it'd be totally natural for them to establish a "personal" connection with the regulars that extends beyond a business appointment. If one has the time and some patience to go with it, it seems like greater mileage can be achieved at many AMPs.

Living in the Spa
It's sometimes worse than you can imagine. Not only do some girls literally live in the spa (and pay rent for the privilege), the shower, cooking, and other conditions are often limited. They must keep the lights off so the spa appears empty. Imagine being alone in an environment like that. Afraid of the dark and spending every night alone in the dark. I bought two friends flashlights and night lights. How's that for romantic? I bought (cheap $60) hotel rooms weekly for one so she could spend one night a week with lights, tv, hot shower. Taken them to zoos, museums, parks, dinner, just so they would have a little fun. Lucky for me the spa owners appreciate my business and look the other way when I hang around. The "mileage" is unlimited, for what it's worth. But I invest a huge amount of time, and the emotional toll is also huge. So I don't know if I could recommend it. But maybe, if you meet one person that you click with you can make a real change in both of your lives. Bob.
