Smashing the water meter will delay the correct bill for a month or so. Bribing the meter readers delays the correct bills for up to 30 years till the meter reader retires! 30 Years is now up and Tijuana is looking to recover the underpaid water bills. . .

Don't you think the old sledge hammer on the meter trick will render it impossible to get an accurate reading?

They have rip off scheme too with the deposit for overnight stays. During my last trip after Thanksgiving they did it twice. Paid the $30 deposit and received just $25-$26 back. I should of contested but the first time I recognized this was already back across the border and the 2nd time downstairs waiting for the shuttle. They try to clip you any phucking way they can.

They had better enjoy the surplus of weekend mongers now while they can with Asian countries shut down and restricted due to COVID. Have to think more discounts offered once world eventually opens fully back up and mongers that typically go elsewhere stop coming to TJ. I think the Dominican Republic is open up for travel and mongering now.

I'm looking very closely at moving to Mexico sometime the back half of 2022 to focus on my small business while reducing my overhead. Would love TJ but there are more affordable options down country or maybe even outskirts of CDMX.

Read somewhere that a lot of big businesses in Tijuana were paying off employees of the municipal water utility to short their water meter reads and billings and this had been going on for years. Now the government is going after these businesses for the underpaid water bills accumulated over many years. . . Think it was to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars lost to Tijuana municipality for these big businesses over many years. . . Wonder if any hotels or clubs got back billed recently?

Not true, its higher than $1. 26, but the employer -must- pay up to the state min wage. It is an absolute floor.

And here I thought the Captain knew everything. California minimum wage for tipped employees is $13.00 per hour. Period. No exceptions.

Some places get away from having to pay stripper / dancers by saying they are artistic performers and charge them for "stage time" for their performances.

F In California minimum wage for tip workers is $1.26 an hour.

[Captain Solo]

For 2021 it was about $12 per day, increase to $13 for 2022.

I understand HK will not pay people working tip-based jobs, like meseros, hotel room attendants, bathroom attendants, valet parking. Instead those people have to pay HK for their jobs to earn tips, which can be a lot more than minimum wages. The hustling meseros can make $100-200 tips on busy nights. It's a damn good job in Mexico. Looks like HK treats putas as independent contractors. They are not completely independent but have pretty flexible work schedule, have to follow work rules, but are unpaid. Strippers are paid 500 pesos for 3 performances. They survive entirely on selling sex, fichas and tips.

That system would have problems reporting legal payroll and got HK into troubles.

It's not an outrageous practice. In California minimum wage for tip workers is $1.26 an hour. Read news articles that Hooters girls complained bitterly they make so little with this low min wage when guys don't tip.

Nothing,

Appreciate your info regarding cold, hard Lola. Guys need to log complaints if the girls break their promises. Girls with multiple complaints will be banished by HK 's management.

Your experience with Lola was actually not as bad as other guy, who were unfortunate to pick up hot lesbians. Lesbians are naturally disgusted with men, will act hostile in bed, restricting access and cause problems. A few bros had extremely bad sessions with this hot stripper Yselle, shown in the pic with her GF. She's pretty and sexy as hell, even won awards in stripping contests. She was back working in HK before Thanksgiving, always nice, sweet, feminine with me, but for unknown reasons, treat the other bros with disgust and hostilities in bed.

The bros should post names and pics of problem girls and cold, hard lesbos.

Thanks for posting. The Lola I knew from a couple years ago was a Sweet girl who I knew couldn't be the same girl that you described. I have not seen the Lola I knew in a year so maybe she is back home or something. She had really dark skin.

Failure to keep the books in a high cash environment. Gee wiz. I sure hope the Cartels aren't using HK to launder money. Yeah, I'm sure it was an accident.

[SpeedToys]

Ahoy Capitano. Must have given me her real name as she took my phone and put in her digits +name+ where from. She has an ass that would fit in a tea cup and is tiny except for her recent additions which are topped by very long nipples. Area code is 55 so Mexico City checks out. We talked about food so much she says she will meet me in Cabo my next trip so I can cook for her. FWIW I am repulsed by big fake asses. They are out of control. Yesterday there were many that not even would belong in a cartoon. Will prolly hit HK once more on the last day of year even with rain coming. I will be the guy in the blue rain slicker if anyone wants to tip a few beers.

Same same. I can manage with _reasonably_ well done fake tits, but ass implant just make me ill.

[SpeedToys]

I figure they will be out from under a $800 K US fine, in about two weeks of fichas, bottles, and customer beers.

Just fichas, and conservatively they make $7/ ea profit on them. That's onlt 3800 bottles a night.

Then you get $600 bottles that cost $50. And that number goes _way_ down.

This article's says they got hit with a $16 MM peso fine. The headline says it was for hiring underage people, although there's no details in the article that actually detail what the infractions were, they just cite general labor violations.

https://www.el-mexicano.com.mx/Notic...s-al-Hong-Kong

This one offers more details. Basically it says that they ran afoul of a bunch of accounting and regulatory compliance issues, like keeping payroll receipts, not paying out required bonuses, not paying their utility bills (in Mexico the Government owns the utilities) and a bunch of other stuff like that. It doesn't say how far back this thing goes, and I don't care to look up the actual statement from the state Government, but a fine this big probably means that it goes back a long time or that the state Government thinks that they are making so much money, that they can take a hit like this and be completely fine.

The article is dated late October 2021, and that's about when people started reporting that the price of everything went up. Looks like they are indeed attempting to recover the $800,000 USD fine one ficha and one ST room at a time.

[ClownDays]

Also I read a few weeks ago about HK getting fined for various labor infractions. Supposedly it was just over 16 million pesos. Not a small junk if change este it's the business that they have lost over the last 2 years.

Next time I'm down I'll be sure to ask about it since I missed it in the Tijuana paper.

De acuerdo al secretario del Trabajo, la empresa incurri en una serie de incumplimientos de obligaciones laborales; por ejemplo, que los empleados y sus familias no cuentan con seguridad social, adems de que la compaa no pudo demostrar comprobantes de pago de nmina, aguinaldo, vacaciones, prima vacacional, prima dominical, pago de utilidades, entre otros.

I doubt they were knowingly hiring underage dancers, at least knowingly. My guess is that it's a bunch of the errand boys, dish washers, cleaning people, etc, because that's actually very common in Mexico. The inability to provide payroll records, probably is the biggest hint that's the case, because the girls are all supposed to have health cards, and just about every Government transaction in Mexico requires your National ID. They were probably hiring foreigners to do shit jobs, which is why they can't produce any payroll documentation, since it would be illegal to hire them in the first place.

That's close to $800 K USD, wow. They'd have to sell 80,000 watered down fichas.

[Bunter Hiden]

Hunter,

Cecilia, with her recent boob and butt job plus liposuction, is from Sonora, not CDMX. After surgeries, she lost her government ID, could not board planes, so had to sit on the bus back to Sonora and waited for new issue.

She's not known for tight rules. She BB guys including a 4-hour GFE session with my wingman last Wednesday.

Perhaps you should try her again.

Day after Christmas.

They're probably trying to recuperate the money they spent on renovations. At this point, we really have no other options if you want to have sex with 8's+, unless some of the girls quit and move to Adelitas.
