This is why I hate upselling and so on.
[QUOTE=McAdonis;2154696]Minimum wage adjusts more-or-less according to inflation because these people in the lowest income brackets would not be able to survive otherwise. In professions above the minimum wage, workers salaries are more subject to market forces of supply and demand. In some professions, the workers might have been "overpaid" in the past. For instance, porn stars today don't come close to what they made in the late 1990's and early 2000's. If they do, certainly not with the same level of ease. Streaming porn killed their industry.
German FKK girls made 50 EUR in 2002. Their "streaming porn" was the entry of Romania and Bulgaria to EU. Why should pricing increase when the supply of WGs exceeds demand? Even at 50 EUR /30 min, I see plenty of WGs sitting around. Except for the upper tenth percentile, WGs are always complaining about lack of customers, especially on non-peak days. There is 400,000 WGs in Germany, so unless all the laufhaus, apartments, and privates increase their prices in lock-step, FKK clubs will lose customers to the other flavors of P6. I am sure FKK club owners don't want to engage in that price war. But price wars are generally good for consumers, which is probably why prices have remained low.
Western European lorry "big rig" drivers have also seen wage stagnation since the newest EU countries have joined. On the German autobahns, all you see is license plates from Romania and Poland. Romanians long distance truck drivers are willing to work for 30000 lei /7500 EUR a year..[/QUOTE]I think you are right in fact. Not all salaries rise with inflation and it is about supply and demand. A flood of Romanian girls arrived and that is why the rates never went up, in fact perhaps they should have fallen and did not.
The girl knows what the prevailing rate and norms are and agrees to them at least implicitly, if not she should consider another venue or make it clear. Pretending to agree to 50 and then trying to put on conditions or upsell in the room is definitely not cool. These girls should really not be respected, after all they have agreed to the prevailing rate or led you believe that they did.
I don't agree at all that the girls are therefore free of fault, the wages in my skill set, even though they are relatively quite high, have not risen in 2 decades in nominal terms.
This whole BBBJ thing, shows the hypocrisy of the situation, before the girls did it all inclusive with hardly any exceptions and now they see an opportunity, it has of course nothing to do with inflation. Why are rates still 50 Euros, because of the massive inflow of Romanian girls amongst others and the fact that this is by far the most lucrative option with minimal education for the vast majority, in fact they are paid more than their peers in educated skilled white collar professions a lot of the time.
I have had a few girls agree to BBBJ pre law and then try to renege on the deal in the room, this was very rare but happens, obviously the girl is trying to trick you into a session. Are they helpless victims and have been forced into this profession? Certainly not, they are taking you for a ride and trying to cheat you.
If 50 Euros is not enough for reasonable service levels, go to a higher paying venue or find another line of work.
