We need to remember that they come from a culture & back ground that are completely different from ours. The concept of customer service in China is very different to here, HK & Taiwan are not so bad, as they have had exposure to the west for much longer & I do often notice a difference in attitude & outlook with some of those ladies. I have been going to China regularly now for over 20 years & it still surprises me how disgracefuly rude some of them come across to my delicate Anglo Saxon heritage, but to them it is both normal & acceptable behaviour, it is just the way they are. A lot of them, especially the slightly older Chinese, have grown up with poverty, squaller & hard times, now they have a chance for the almighty dollar & the freedom that it can bring so they grab it every opportunity they can get. They know that most of us don’t hang around with them for that long & many are just one time clients, it is the nature of men, so for some of the girls it’s not primarily about supplying an awesome service to us, it is just about giving themselves every opportunity of maximising income, so they answer the phone, answer the door, do whatever is needed to get that next job booked in.
Poor Mary may not even know how much of a turn off it is to her customers, but I suspect that she does & I think that she has probably made a commercial decision to operate that way, it may work well for her.
I think if I were to go see her, then I would politely make it clear on the phone that I didn’t want interruptions, it has worked for me in the past, not only with private working girls but also with some very prominent AMP’s as some of the mamasans insist the girls keep the front door unlocked & answer all inquiries instead of simply putting a sign saying “sorry, busy until 2.00 pm”.
To me it’s seems crazy but there again I have never run an AMP, these girls & their employers are very sharp operators, they have done their sums & like any successful business, they are interested in maximising profits & they do know what they are doing.
After saying that, there are some real gems out there, absolute sweethearts, but even they need to make a living and probably have bad days, bad clients and the pressures of life that affect their demeanour & service.
Hmmmm, now I feel like going to visit Mary myself & seeing how it goes.
