Zippy,
I agree. If you notice, that is why I changed the expression to "luxury restaurant" from "fine steak" (well that and because I wasn't quite sure how to say fine steak

)
Miami X,
If you notice Zippy raised the scenario where a chica tries the money first thing even after he clearly communicatd the terms back at the bar. And that can certainly happen. I usually get flabbergasted initially myself and then I always play it the same way - Just say NO (occasionally I'll at least show them I have the money). They nearly always so "Oh, yeah I forgot" or some such and drop it. They're just testing us, but it doesn't leave a comfortable feeling in the back of my mind. If she forgot she agreed to be paid at the end what else did she forget she agreed to? Of course if they do forget anything else, I don't hesitate to remind and ultimately having retained control over the dinero helps their meory more than anything else.
Here is a hypothetical question for the rest of you guys on this subject. We all agree that if we agreed to promise a girl for services rendered and she lives up to her end of the agreement than we should meet our end when we're done and pay the agreed amount. My question is what is the accepted procedure if she meets some but not all of the agreed terms? I mean a chica can upsell on items that weren't discussed. "Desea mi culo, paga 10K más" or "usted puede tomar mi cuadro, pero te costará 5K más". What if you've got them in your room, they've agreed to be paid at the end and they've started to deliver (say they've stripped and started playing with your dick). Then all of a sudden they whip out that condom and start to slip it on your dick so they can do a CBJ. You clearly asked for "chupar sin condon" back at the bar. You insist and she steadfastly refuses. What do you do?
a) do you send her packing with nada or
b) do you send her packing with some token amount or
c) do you "downsell" and tell her right then and there that if she doesn't do as promised you'll pay xx amount less or
d) do you take what you can get, wait to the end and pay whatever YOU think is fair.
And the follow up question is if this series of events occurs, how would you come up with that fair amount for whatever the limited services that she did provide? Do you think that this scenario may be the real basis of some of the complaints that chicas tell about being shortchanged?
Here is another related question. Say you have the unfortunate event where you get a chica back to your room and she suddenly insists on being paid upfront (despite earlier assurances). Okay, we all agree she should be sent packing. But what if she then insists that you pay her something for her time or for cabfare back to the bar, etc.? Do you pay her or tell her to screw herself (she wasted your time too and you may even be out a little for the hotel's chica fee)? Or do you pay her some token amount just to shut the bitch up and get rid of her? I have to admit that I have done the latter (as last resort) and felt guilty for it since it essentially rewarded bad behavior, but it's sometimes worth it to avoid a huge, loud and embarassing scene that disturbs other hotel guests, necessitates calling hotel security or simply delays my getting back to the bar to find a replacement. What are you guys own experiences in this area?
