[QUOTE=Captaincookie;1795472]Is she really? I just saw her in a bar in pearl city couple weeks ago. No way she made enough money to get into another bar already? Maybe she got some rich old Japanese dude to front some cash.[/QUOTE]That's usually the case.
[QUOTE=Local1234;1795499]That's usually the case.[/QUOTE]No matter how she did it, she is the new owner of the old club tomorrow. She was thinking of changing the name to 4 seasons but we shall see.

[QUOTE=Oldee;1795535]Try get free food EG, its grand opening.[/QUOTE]The food was pretty good as the steak was nice and tender and the poke was fresh. I did see HM's Chinese girl working, but she did not have too many customers.

[QUOTE=H Mobius; 1794098]I find that bargirls are just no fun (or even pleasant).
But unlike hostesses in the days of yore, today's princesses cannot be ordered to commit to a schedule and they would never listen anyway.[/QUOTE]Very astute observation HM Bro. All of us who live in the Islands have been seasoned air travelers for many years. You can draw parallels between the kbg and the flight attendant "professions." Flight attendants used to be young, beautiful girls fresh out of high school or college who want to see the world and put a few bucks away before they win the lottery (fall in love with and marry a rich business traveler or airline captain) or simply have fun before they "grow up." There were no questions, ambiguities, or games when it came to their desires, hopes, dreams, and goals. The more unlucky ones would simply get the message and move on to become nurses, school marms, or librarians. Either way, the airlines provided a "commodity" for passengers to enjoy and make the flight experience much more pleasant for everyone.
When exactly did being a flight attendant (or kbg) become a career? It is not uncommon for major airline flight attendants to stay with their airlines into their fifties and sixties. So now when you plunk down your hard-earned dollar for a flight to Vegas or Asia (unless it's on an Asian carrier), instead of french perfume, the planes smell of Ben-Gay. Instead of mini skirts and long, pretty bare legs, it's support hose. And instead of innocent, if not mildly suggestive flirtations it's rude demands and bad attitudes. It seems like that's becoming the rule more than the exception in the kb's as well. The senior kb hostesses are mean, ornery, demanding, and do little more for their successors than demean and bad mouth the very customers that have been providing for them for years. And the ones who continue to work at the kb's while they're married with the tacit approval of their husbands only exacerbates the problem (and if we don't know who THEY are, we certainly should, because there is nothing more frustrating than finding out you've been making some other guy's house payment). It's no wonder that, on the one hand, the young ones coming over from Korea learn quickly to become robs, or on the other, look at their seniors and say to themselves,"Is this what I'm going to be like in 20 or 30 years? Is this the dream? Is this as good as it gets?"
I encourage you HM, Oldee, and others like you to continue to "train" the younger kbgs as to the mutual benefit of the win-win scenario. After all, they have made a choice. A conscious decision to seek out and work in this environment. Teach them that if they are going to succeed in their chosen "profession," they must not only learn what is expected from the kbguy point of view, but also how they can avoid the pitfalls of these forty-something angry, bitter kbgs whose only recourse to not having gotten out while the getting was good, is to slap a little more putty in the cracks. Or silicone in the headlights. Or add industrial strength spandex to their wardrobes. And those of us "supporters" who have unwittingly fallen prey to the controlling robs must not be ashamed or embarrassed. Instead, let us be resolute to "out" those like Diana and Miji and Eri and Gina et al. I sincerely believe that working in the kb and patronizing the kb can be a mutually beneficial experience, regardless of what both parties seek or are willing to provide. After all they're here for us, and we're here for them. It stands to reason that for kb's to survive (and thrive) , both we and they must embrace a both / and instead of an either / or philosophy. That should invariably lead to a win / win experience for everyone. (Geeze, I'm glad that's over. I was beginning to sound like a poor textbook! Sorry so long. Maybe more appropriate for the T&D forum.)
[QUOTE=Oldee;1795535]Try get free food EG, its grand opening.[/QUOTE]2nd Grand Opening in three months. Free food tonight, too? See you out tonight.
[QUOTE=Opahs;1795556]Butterfly had twin sisters bartending sat 2chubby sisters.[/QUOTE]They may look alike. Cindy & Chong-ah, but I don't think they are sisters. But both are chubby.
I agree with you guys that the young fillies need some training, or like a wild horse, they need to be broken. I try to train some of them and explain the long run v. Hit and run tactics. The problem is, many are here for a short while so they don't give a shit and will do the hit and run. However, plans do change and some stay much, much longer than expected and wonder why they have no customers, when they used to be so busy. You can rehab some of them. Others are here and discover they don't want to go back to Korea and find some sucker to agree to a green card marriage. They continue working, but must make extra money to pay the guy for his cooperation and the green card. The girls all have their reasons to be here: helping out the family, running away from a bad relationship, owes lots of money. You just have to learn to choose wisely.

The people here think they are pro singers and turn the karaoke so high it feels like I'm buzzing but that's only my hearing. They have free food but its so greasy my heart might stop. I saw shamu but she didn't go bunni outfit don't think they make it in XXXXXXXL. Is there any good local hostess bars left on the island?
Howzit gang, haven't posted in a while since my wife got a little suspicious of my late night excursions. Sitting here at Splash tonight and looking for bartender Chanel but a few other girls told me she quit. She was always my guarantee easy score for a car BJ. Anyone know where she has landed and why she may have quit? Inquiring mind (s) want to know.
Aloha gang,
