Cheating

It seems to be very easy. Just walk over a bar, ask phone number from a girl and call to her after she will finish the work. You will save the bar fine, correct?

No!

Think again, what are you doing?

You are cheating. Even worse, you are stealing something that not belongs to you, and the worst: the girl is stealing the same.

You can save some 300 baht, but you collect bad karma. Nobody wants to see you at this particular bar again. If the girl agrees, she will be lost her trustfullness for the owner. The worst case: she will be fired.

It was happened sometimes in our bar, but not very frequently. Of course, all the ladies in bar are free to go away anytime, but they don’t. If you met the girl in the bar, she cannot go with you even after the bar is closed.

It’s because the bar is their job and even more: their life. It’s a mix of loyalty, friendship, business, tradition etc. Thai people take care about each other. As long as the relations are good, you can trust them and they will trust you, too.

So, if a customer makes a proposal to cheat, it will be sometimes very difficult for the lady in bar. The most of the ladies just refuse.

- Why not take a seat, chat with ladies, have some drinks and fun?

If you’d like to save your money, go to Walking Street or Beach Road. There are always lots of freelancers waiting for you. No bar fine. But, if you are in the bar, you have to accept the rules.

I have read your blog and seen the pictures and you have a nice looking bar with an attractive staff. When I am next in Pattaya I will make it a point to stop by and have a few with you.

Good luck with you business.

Sorry but if this is not pimping then I don't know what is. There's a work time and free time (while you are not at work) when you can do whatever you want. You as European should know that, too.

Hey mate, I enjoy your blog and bar. Wishing you nothing but the best in your future.

God knows I barfine multiple times daily when in Patts, but your theory is absolute garbage lol. The point of a barfine is to compensate bar for taking the staff away during the bars operational hours.

If you're thinking in pimping terms, then you could also take a cut of the ST/LT fee (like in PI), but the barfine rules still apply. It's a free world, work this out with your staff.

This isnt slave labor, it's at will employment. Staff are free to use their free time as they see fit.
