Question Sorry - she’s running 15 minutes late….

[Lalallala]

I am almost always on time or a bit early. But if something happens and I run late, I let the spa know and I pay for the time I am not there. Recently I booked a 11-12 appointment.. but couldn’t get there until 11:30. I told the manager I will keep the booking and pay for the 30 min I am not there regardless. And extend to 12:30 if she’s ok with it. I tipped as if it was a 90 min session instead of a 60 min session.

ETA: and when I can’t expect to make a certain time, I usually go as a walk in. Like today. But that being said, it worked out really well since I got someone I had been looking to meet. If I made an appointment I would have chosen someone else.

lol, I hobby way more then you…and just being realistic to what is actually happening. If you feel that entitled, go ahead and stop going to any spa that you feel has disrespected you, I could care less. There’s no such thing as the perfect spa. If you hobby as much as I do, you would know this. It has nothing to do with being a white knight…

I would suggest that my visiting the last 5 years had cost me over $xx,xxx a year ... so I can't speak for you, but I certainly know that it's in the top 5% of visiting, all that visiting is local to Oakville (90%).

As, I don't have this concern, I'm very clear that my time is valuable ..... and if I book an appointment, I expect the appointment time to be met. Happy Friday.

After much deliberation and a lot of private chats outside of the opinions and discussions above I’ve come to the conclusion that we all need to see this from all angles.
The girl needs to make money, we support her and if she’s a regular we support her more. We support the spa owner who makes less than half of what the girl does for each visit we make, so he/she needs more girls and less overhead to make more money.
We are the wild card, some of us are retired and have a flexible schedule, some of you (not I) are single and don’t have to be home for dinner and can stay out past 8pm without having to explain why your top button on smyour shirt isn’t buttoned like it was in the morning or why your understate on backwards when you undress at night…
And a fair few of us are married and have strict timelines between meetings or need to pick someone up at the GO train at 6:37….
When I mentioned this to my favorite girl who I was having issues with her reply was simple - “ yes - and we need to understand each other better”…
I’ve raised the issue that I had and so far, albeit only tested twice, my appointments have been on time, however, the reception by both the spa owner and my favorite girl has definitely been more businesslike than before.
No hugs or chocolates on the way out like before….just “see you next time”…

This sounds petty but is actually a great route when a girl pisses you off, not the manager. Go see other ones- if you are really tight with the owner? Go see the one you know she doesnt like lol...

We can be so good to them if they treat us right, but if they don’t? No need to yell or undertip. Just rub her nose in it.
