Massage Parlor Reports

[Bob521]

The answer is complicated, since I'm married already. L does not want me to hurt the American wife. In 2 years, American wife will retire and wants to move to California. So that's the biggest fork in the road for us. I really do want to marry her. We decided to make the decision in the next year or two. L calls me "Husband" and I call her "Wife". She says her parents call me "American" because "Bob" sounds too much like "Baba" (which means father in Chinese). "Robert" sounds like "radish in Chinese. So she says the family will call me "Meguren" which means "American". For Chinese New Year, we were video chatting with her family, and some cousins. She called me "Zhangfu" (husband) and it caused quite a commotion. Cousins wishing her well. Her parents know we are not married, but the cousins now think we are! Oh what a tangled web!

Bob, when are you and Mei getting married?

I PM'd a long answer. But will sort of repeat it here. First, it is entirely up to you. Many customers have limited income, and should never feel they are obligated to pay any certain amount. For an hour, probably $20 - $30 is most typical. (give or take $10). A customer that comes every other week and tips $10 is a very valued customer and much better than someone who tips $40 but only comes once every six months. In my case, I used to add to the tip when somebody would go over the stated massage time. So ten minutes over is probably worth $5-$10 added to the tip. A 90 minute massage is proportionately higher.

What does Mei consider a fair appreciation for her services? (Ballpark).

How much did you spend with Cici for house fee and tip? I've been seeing Kendy at their other location off Chicago Ave in Oak Park. Really nice Asian will the perfect rack. Usually adds a prostate touch to the finish. I got her number and visited her home as well. Trying for more than just a stand finish but nothing yet. Might go back to her place again to seal the deal. Last time she double booked me and I went anyway so she can take care of me in the bathroom. Just gave her. 25 so it was a steal. I hope the guy on the table didn't mind waiting for a few more minutes.

This post about kendy caught my eye. Looking at RM and BP I found angel Spa on Chicago alhough Cici works out of King on North. I called Chicago Ave shop. Man at Roosevelt place answered saying Chicago site closed that day but other girl "good. " I did not Persue. I'm a bit confused.

Please post or PM info or reviews. Prior post mentions a cell number for MT For off site. I will post in return any experience obtained.

Bob, when are you and Mei getting married?

Well said. I've told Mei that when we get married we would sell the business and travel the world. Now, I'm a part time electrician, plumber, accountant, salesman, lawyer, webmaster, cleaning guy, etc.

Thank you again for visiting us. And thank you for your generosity. When I first met her we would argue over the size of the tip also. Our ultimate resolution was to give excess money to charity.

Yes they have offered that, however never partook. I am winding down in my career by choice and found out after along time in the small business ownership game. You don't own a business, a business owns you! Very profitable for me, however extremely stressful. I am in my senior years now and I doubt I will ever open up another business in my lifetime. Once the passion goes so goes the energy to keep it all going. When people would tell me oh you're so lucky you don't have a boss! I said yea I do. Everyone that walks in the door or rings the phone. They are called customers!

This morning was the most thorough deep tissue massage of my recollection. Mei has an impressive power to weight ratio and engineers understanding of "the proper application of leverage. " I found the experience intimate and respectful as is proper for any clinician and their patient.

I tipped enough to embarrass my therapist. She is supporting her family back home. Next time I will give less in respect of her feelings. I wish her and her business the best of success.

I have a copy of Quickbooks Pro for my business. It's just that Mei would not likely use it. She does use Google Sheets (Google's answer to Excel).

You have done your research and followed thru. For book keeping you might look into quickbooks pro. I ran a business full time for over 12 years and the last 8 or so part x. Much easier when it comes to tax season. I am still using qb pro 2005 even though I have newer machines. Let's just say there are easy hacks around the company wanting you to buy their new product from year to year. My accountant for years got me into it and I never looked back. Now as far as the translation goes. You might want to contact the company directly. Good work!

I am new here and want to know what is a good place to get some good massage and some extra services? I am thinking between Oki Doki, Logan Tantricas or independent providers. Any guidance will be much appreciated.

My accountant asked for it. It's expensive and I pay it.

[StanleyStankas]

The online version allows offsite entry and review. You do have to pay every year however. Cosco I believe has a discount on first year.

First, thank you for your business. It's actually Mei's place. I funded the business for her and I spend a fair amount of time there doing my own work (investments and financial consulting.).

She will take you to the room. You may undress and cover yourself with the towel.

It goes without saying, and forum members are well aware, but other pointers for any legit (no / he) place are (1) Don't grab her or try to cop a feel. (2) Don't deliberately flash your junk (3) Don't ask for a HE, (4) Don't jack-off during the massage. All of this has been attempted, and it really upsets her. And it upsets me also, since we're a couple. This should seem obvious, and certainly at a place like Massage Envy, you would not try those things. AS I've said before, some of our best customers are forum members. All respectful, good guys. They appreciate a good strong massage, and they also appreciate what a nice person she is. Bob
