Stupid shit in Medellin

[RamDavidson84]

I guess every single Australian, New Zealander, and Japanese must be impolite then. Tipping is out of control. And especially don't take tipping advice from somebody who lives in Las Vegas, for god's sakes.

I could be wrong, but I always thought countries that don't expect a tip to the server factor that into the cost of the meal and pay the server more per hour. As an American, I can say with certainty that if you don't tip, you are an asshole, plain and simple. Obviously if someone's not American they have their own customs so they get a pass.

A very good friend of mine's mother put her self through nursing school while living in section 8 housing with her 3 kids and collecting welfare and working a side job as a waitress for extra cash. She made it very clear to us as kids, Hell is reserved for dudes who don't tip correctly. Chivalry is not totally dead if a scumbag like me still enjoys tipping a little bit LOL.

If they all go to places where the employees or contractors are paid by tips and they don't tip, yes, they're impolite.

Interesting thing about people who live in Las Vegas. They don't usually spend money at the same level as tourists visiting Las Vegas. The ones who don't learn control end up homeless. They understand that there's nothing wrong with tipping, without needing to throw money around.

Went there and 10-12 girls. They give you a note pad to write down the names of girls you would like to screw. Then you pick one of the independent contractors and they all try to charge you extra fees for services you though were included: kissing, DATY, BBBJ, etc. Would be better if they all were all inclusive and not independent hustlers.

Would it be? From what I've seen and what I know, when everyone is providing the same service, for the same price, the service settles in the mediocre level. There's no point in providing better service if you get paid the same for crappy service.

Unless you're talking slavery, the girls all choose to work there and they choose what level of service they will provide. Some see it as a chance to make more money. Some see it as a way to discourage things they don't want to do.

Strip clubs, in most places, don't hire girls. They are considered independent contractors. All the management does is approve them to work there. If they only allowed pretty girls to work there they would quickly be out of business. Of course that's without considering that the management might have a different opinion of pretty than you do.

What every club needs is a mix. You need all types. You need plain girls who are great dancers. You need the older women who are great listeners. You need women with personality, along with a few beauties. Otherwise you end up with a club with very few dancers because of jealousy and attitudes and very few customers.

Most guys go to a strip club to have fun, although it seems ISG has a bunch of guys who go to strip clubs to complain. That means girls who can entertain, rather than just girls who stare at their phones and look pretty.

Tip the girls a 2 mil note when they come up to you. Yes, you end of spending a whole 5 dollars throughout the course of an entire night, but it's the right thing to do. People burn in hell for not tipping, they end up in the same level of hell as the working girls who don't finish guys haha. Tip your strippers boys.

P.S. I am not saying ball out and throw wads of cash around, I am just saying throw the girl a 2 mil note and make her feel good when they come dance on you.

How crass can someone be? A girl is taking her clothes off for your viewing pleasure. I'm sure that was her dream as a little girl: to grow up and take her clothes off in front of a bunch of.

Fat, loud foreigners and some local men too. The truth is she isn't there because it is her dream, she is there to earn enough to feed her hungry children or mother or whatever. All you have to do is suck it up and give her a 2 mil note with is now worth about $0. 40.

If that clown really thinks that is giving money away for free. He shouldn't be in a strip club. I have to wonder if he goes around and trys to eat out of the garbage cans? Afterall, giving the restaurant or food vender money for food that he can find discarded in the closest garbage cans is the same as giving money away for nothing. Or perhaps, he should go back home and pull bottles out of the garbage there for the recycling deposit. A couple of good days retrieving empty beer bottles and he might be able to afford tipping a few of the girls.

[RamDavidson84]

Dude don't be an idiot, there is a difference between paying for something of value such as food in a restaurant and throwing money away for free such as tipping girls in a strip club. All I'm pointing out is that the money can be better spent elsewhere.

If you and the others who attacked me here enjoy. Throwing your money around in order to look like big ballers or weekend warriors to impress your friends or to impress strippers in a club then that's your choice. The same girls can be had in Centro or in Santa Fe or in Ccuta for a fraction of the price. And no I'm not complaining I'm simply pointing out that you guys are waiting money, but I get it you guys don't live here, you come down for a. Week and blow a bunch of money and you go home broke to the US feeling some sense of fulfillment. If that's what floats your boat then carry on.

impolite to hang out and not tip anyone.

All strip clubs are stupid and a waste of money. Those 2 k bills could be put to much better use than giving them away for free for nothing. If you want sex 30 k in Centro, if want beer 3 k for a tall can Andina beer at your local tienda in the barrio. You want to waste money on bullshit, by all means go to the strip clubs like a dumb gringo.

Locals: I am a local in Las Vegas. I used to waste $ in strip clubs like most of the tourists do. Since I live here I see no reason to visit them like I used to. LOL.

Tourists: I deal with tourists quite often. I see them do amazingly "stupid" things spending thousands of dollars. LOL but Las Vegas survives on tourism. (So does La Isla) FYI In 2022 the "Medellin tourism bureau estimated the expenditure of tourists at 26 million dollars. - with 39% of all travelers coming from America". I used to be a tourist.

Regulars: Some people visit more often and they learn (or choose) which establishments are the best value for them. Often they enlist the locals to show them around and give them advice. (I do a lot of that, I am in the tourism business) Business everywhere would rather have regular customers. They are going to visit more often and spend more in the long run. That's what I do.

You may be a local with the fortune to have friends working at La Isla. Terrific. But La Isla would rather have people spend $. Tourists & Regulars. So would most businesses in Medellin. I am sorry if you were insulted by what people spend for their entertainment and the assumption I made that no money means "no honey" most of the time on the planet. It seems like entitlement and also impolite to hang out and not tip anyone.

So La Isla charges a cover and now things are changing. It will not affect the tourists or the regulars. Hopefully it brings in top talent for the clubs patrons. (& ME .

I hate restaurants that the waitresses pool their tips to together and divide amongst them. Why should the stellar waitress continually give her higher income to the waitress that makes the least amount because the low tip earner has a bad attitude, screws up orders, poor hygiene, etc? This actually punishes the great waitresses who work harder.

I hate going to these type of stripper joints because the girls keep interrupting me when I am chatting to my friend or another girl. If the owner knows you guys will tip ANY girl he will thus hire ANY girl to fill the position rather than the hot girl he should hire. Next the owner will hire some guy to dance. Why? Why not? You idiots give tips to everyone.

The point is not the money it is whether it was earned or not. Strippers should be pretty, not pretty ugly. If they were pretty then all the guys would be paying close attention to stage, thus tipping more, staying longer, and drinking more.

Ah yes! The magical, mythical strip club where all the strippers are gorgeous and have great attitudes. Instead of bouncers they have leprechauns riding unicorns and giving gold to random customers.

Maybe Gabacho thinks we should not use restaurants either?

[JustTK]

Maybe they're stupid and a waste for you, but you're not everybody. Maybe some guys don't mind tipping 25 cents or 50 cents to sip on a beer and watch dances..

Nothing stupid and wasteful about it, if that's what one wants to do and enjoys it.

One doesn't have to tip either. Girls will still dance even if you don't tip. Many of the Colombians don't tip, and its not a foreigner tax. .

I see it though, rather like tipping a waiter / waitress in a restaurant. Maybe Gabacho thinks we should not use restaurants either?

[MarquisdeSade1]

Seriously you can not think of someone to ban for life? I sure can. MarquisdeSade1. Please feel free to argue his value here.

Just when I thought I had escaped this online psych ward, I read this jajajaa.

Huge Congrats yes, you are one of the head whackjobs around here that add nothing but drama and toxicity.

Case in point arent you that psycho the Tall Man wrote, was stalking him around in el centro hiding in bushes etc?

Lets us guess you are a clone of that Danny Devito character in One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest (he described you as a short and weird little creature).

And arent you also the one that was sooper "wounded" when I couldn't stop LMAO.

Because you wrote pinay putas "walk on water" wasnt that you? ROTFLMMFAO.

Arent you also the one that writes how much he hates everything about Colombia and MDE?

Why the fuck are you still in this thread? Do they provide free wifi in state psych wards in the USA?

Really? What's stupid is the "anyone who doesn't do everything my way is stupid" mentality. Considering that almost everything you post is a complaint, your way doesn't seem too appealing. Why choose a path that leaves one constantly pissed off at the world?

Strip clubs are an option. For some they are a good option. For others they aren't. Paying $4-$5 for a beer isn't going to break the bank. Paying $0. 40 for a naked woman to dance on your crotch for 2 minutes probably isn't going to wipe out your mongering budget. You can easily spend 2 hours in Barre Ejecutiva, drink 2 beers, feel up 20 women, fuck 1 woman and spend less than $40. Rather then be miserable and complaining on my vacation, I'll happily drop a whopping $40 for an evening's entertainment that includes beer and sex.

And 30 k for sex in El Centro doesn't include the cost of the room. Stop spreading false information.

[Gabacho]

I think you missed the whole thing as far as strip clubs. The girls that go up to dance are paid by the 2 mil tips that everyone gives them. That is how it works. Your cover charge has nothing to do with it, what the club gives them to dance is probably 0, they are paid by the patrons that give them those tips. So by gettting bent out of shape about it you basically just insult everyone in the place. But that is just because you are looking at it from a totally different angle. That of a foreigner who has no idea of how these clubs work. When you go in make sure you have a stack of 2 mil bills, if you run out get the waiter guys to bring you change, and give them a 2 mil for their effort. Everything will then be cool and you can enjoy yourself. 2 mil is about 50 cents, that's what you pay to watch a girl dance on the stage. Of course you can refuse, and I doubt anything really bad would happen, but it is just not cool.
