[QUOTE=WestCoast1;3067802]Ya I been singing that song since before covid. I made a killing from the off-hours (usually afternoon, before her shift starts) gogo girls instead of barfining them. Pre-covid most bars didn't allow girls to have their own phones inside the customer area, the phones were kept in the girl's locker. Post-covid has been an entirely different story, and mamas seem to turn a blind eye to it.[/QUOTE]I don't think bars anywhere have the luxury of imposing conditions or standards upon the girls. Out of desperation they are forced to take anyone with a heartbeat.

There was a time when working the bars was the only option for girls trying to turn a buck. Now it's way down the list, has some very negative side effects and they can earn much more money elsewhere.

Who wants to be gain a life long label as a hoe, take the risk of uncle Bong Bong walking in and seeing you, destroy your good looks in two years from booze and late nights, only to share most of your income as house fines, fees, commissions etc. Much easier to set up a few LDR simps and sponsor Daddies and work the phone for an hour a day.

New bar on Durban Street at the junction (upstairs) next to Dimples, is called Mascara.

I was under the impression that the girls would get in serious trouble for giving their number out so I was asking for the number surreptitiously; however the girls blatantly just took my phone and keyed in the digits.

I was in the gogos of Nana Plaza a few months back and that was very different. All but one of the five girls I asked gave me their number but were very careful about keeping it hidden. One even went to the toilet, scrawled her number on some toilet paper and then slipped it to me.

If we are talking about gogo girls giving out numbers, I'd suggest go to my earlier post and have a read of the old post that I attached. The one about the pole dancer handing me her number. It details our interaction with the bar rules, mamasan etc and how they varied depending on how long I stayed and how much I spent.

She wasn't just concerned about the mamasan seeing her giving me her number. Earlier in the night, when we were still at the stand up table, I asked. She said it wasn't allowed so I surreptitiously left my phone on the table open at the Contacts page. She did start to type it in but stopped immediately when the bar staff passed by. I have no idea what the fine would have been but she was clearly worried about being caught.

Have a look at the full post below for more context. I waffle on a little at the start but the bar and girl under discussion is at the bottom half of the post.

I wise up and decide that that's enough and it's time to quit while I'm ahead. She's not allowed to give her number out in the bar so it's too blatant for her to type directly into my phone's contacts. She calls over a waitress and writes her a note. I pay the bill and get that note with the change. Whether it's real or not, who knows but it's a number to keep for when I'm back. 4 k worth of drinks and good times.

I Grab home at 5 am after 'just a quiet drink'.

Enjoy. G.[/QUOTE]

Often, the girl has a local boyfriend or even a husband who does not want her dealing with mongers outside of a bar setting. Some clients can become clingy hopeless romantics and start trying to save the girl from the bar. Others want to fuck the girls below the bar rates for two weeks in their short-term rental apartment, leading to economic losses for their boyfriend / husband / family and the bar.

ISG appears as a jumbled up mess on my phone whenever I have my VPN engaged. It never used to but the last few months it's been a real pig.

Thanks.

Yeah, some bars have the no cellphone instructions, mainly to stop them chatting away with their text mates.

Most nowadays don't care.

Except the ones that "control" the girls.

Most of the mamasans have an informal loan system, not the bar, and it's in the interest of the mamasan to keep the girl under control.

I checked it today in California on WIFI about 200 M bps.

Pics download was fast. Nothing unusual.

Your slow speed may be overloaded and slow local network. Do a speed test to check.
