Here's a tip. Don't run with scissors
[QUOTE=Phordphan;2439949]You're tipping the girl because you think she's not charging enough money? :D[/QUOTE]Ha ha. I knew you'd have something to say buddy! Your post was one of the ones that I was most looking forward to!
I tip because she's providing a service. And those beautiful ladies, along with waiters that serve me in restaurants, bartenders & a whole bunch of other service workers that I deal with, receive tips from me. And the reason I tip for services is three-fold: 1. A lot of folks actually depend on tips to make ends meet & I feel for them. 2. I appreciate how difficult it is to work in the service industry & tipping is my way of showing my appreciation. 3. Tipping 20% is just so set in the way that I do business with people that it would be hard for me to change it at this point. When I'm on tour in other countries, I often get chastised by the locals for over-tipping. Such is life. If that's the worst thing that happens that day, I can somehow find a way to live with it.
Now, to exemplify the 2nd point, I ask you to consider a waiter. Is it difficult for him to bring a plate of food from the kitchen to your table? No, not necessarily. However, is it difficult for him to 1. Bring the CORRECT plate of food, just the specific way you ordered it, keeping it separate from all of the other gluten-free / kosher / allergic to tree nut orders he has to deal with during that hour while 2. Being harassed by the asshole at table 12 who is yelling at him about his great dislike of the shape of the restaurant's parking lot, all while 3. Smiling & joking with you enough to make your dining experience a truly pleasurable one? You better believe it's fucking difficult. The same with bartenders. The same with the kid who lugs the groceries to your door. And FOR SURE the same for the beautiful 19 year old bar girl / escort who lovingly coos sweet nothings in your ear while you nail her into a dirty bed, immediately after some sweaty, obese motherfucker with bad breath & a misshapen little wiener talked insultingly to her during sex & then tried to get out of paying her their previously agreed upon amount. If you were doing any of the above mentioned jobs, I would tip you as well. Well, you'd have to be extra nice if you were doing the bar girl job. I'd expect DFK, too.
[QUOTE=Phordphan;2439949]That sort of tipping may be "appreciated" but it's really not part of the Mexican culture. If you contract with somebody to do something for a specific price, you pay it and no more. Unless there's something extraordinary. They don't tip taxis because the fair is negotiated beforehand. They wouldn't tip the plumber or the painter.[/QUOTE]I hear you but again, it's just the way I do business, in the US & elsewhere. I sometimes tip painters & plumbers, as well, especially if they go out of their way to do extra work, etc. Also, when a customer service rep on the phone does a great job for me, I go out of my way to find out the contact info of their supervisor & then I send them an email explaining in detail why I feel that the CSR was exceptional.
[QUOTE=Phordphan;2439949]Lots of guys say the girls asked for $100, they negotiated down to $80 and then tipped $20. That seems to defeat the purpose.
Regardless, I only use pesos and I would rarely tip the girls, outside of maybe rounding up to the nearest 500 pesos, I. E. If we settled on 1400 I would give 1500. The exception, as stated above, is if she went above and beyond. My last threesome I tipped the hooker (the other was a pseudo-GF) nicely because she went above and beyond, allowing BBFS and other things. IIRC it was around 500 pesos, but we'd all been at it for over an hour.[/QUOTE]I seem to remember reading elsewhere about your above-mentioned soiree. You lucky duck!
As a complete side note. I just want to say how great it is to have a place like this where folks, especially like the two of us, on polar opposites of the political spectrum, can come together & discuss stuff like this. And we can have a bit of fun while doing it.
[QUOTE=Phordphan;2439949]It's your money, spend it how you wish. But you are a bad dresser. :)[/QUOTE]Listen, I'll cop to being an idiot, a fool with my money, a liberal waste of human flesh & all the other stuff. But you had to jump on the bad dresser thing, didn't you? Man, you really know how to hurt a guy.
What to HK Girls Make a day (take home)
I wonder how much the girls make in a day at HK.
A few girls make big bucks.
Some make what. Maybe $200-$300?
Most make $100.
Some that are not so pretty. Maybe $50 if they get no fucky?
One girl told me she lives at the Cascada's and is required to pay $50/ day to live there. Is this true?
Curious if anyone knows.
Goyo.
