    went into this massage place less than 5 minutes away from my place and coolio they’re open til 2am

    the receptionist was this sketch dude who you probably won’t even trust to run even an internet cafe lmao

    he offered the 2-hour package but i figured maybe i’ll do 1.5 for now

    ugh the place feels sketchier than i’m giving it credit

    “um pwede po ba yung 1 hour package na lang”

    “ay sir nasulat ko na po kasi” points to some accounting book thing

    “pwede po 1 hour na lang pero same price” me internally: WTFFFFFFFFFFF HWELP MEIH

    ate therapist: ge okay lang yan

    proceeds to give hopefully the blandest massage of my life, but it’s not terrible so okay they’re trying

    3/4 of the way through, ate therapist: sir gusto niyo po yung extra service something something

    wat

    me: de okay lang thx

    ate goes out to get towel to wipe out oil

    ate therapist pagbalik: try niyo po? try niyo po?

    me: ah hinde hehe

    kuya receptionist/scammaz: hands out P400 change for a P1000 payment for a P499 massage

    me: eto na lang amin na 1k q abot 500 para sa math

    internally: keep the change HAHAHAHA pls let me go

    tip kay ate kahit papano because she’s probably trying to just do shit

    kinda weird. HUHUHU sana di nila ako makasalubong sa daan they’re literally less than 5mins away

    also i wonder ano pakiramdam ni ate na mahindian siya sa ganong offer HAHA

    and the environment just feels sooooo uninspired i know it’s the kind of work that most people would rather not want to get into pero the therapists i’ve been with who do well talagang may difference na you can tell they try to master their craft. if most of the bland therapists can be inspired by someone to do better (and ofc be paid well) they’d probably do a better job and get more regulars and better tips

      You got into what’s called a “spakol” which is spa + jak*l. Those kind of places never give the best quality massage
