HILARIOUS...You guys are all way off...This is Calgary RedNeck Ville... Shops are busted constantly irregardless of drugs, bad girls, soliciting...ect. Like hello almost every shop in the city has been busted at least once if not twice. They do not want ANY prostitution, massage, escort, lapdancing, stripping (if they could stop that) in this city. We have more cops (and now lucky us two helicopters)in this city than most provinces...and of course not a big enough city with not enough real crime to keep them busy. It's mostly a political push from all of the church going bible thumpers in the city that are too narrow minded to see the benefits and preventions that these services provide, also a big push from people in our own industry. All it takes is one complaint...the client who didn't get what he wanted, the guy who was shorted 10mins off his massage, the girl who was ignorant in the room and buddy leaves pissed off, the staff who didn't get commissions, the other shop owner who is jealous of the other one who is busier, ect. The big picture is all of you and all of us in the massage business should be working together to keep quiet, stop complaining, stop giving shotty service, stop being jealous and ratting on one another (because Karma is a bitch), and if you don't get what you want go somewhere else instead of calling in the complaints....because what happens inevitably is we are destroying are own employment opportunities (because when a shop is busted it is nooooooo longer allowed to be run or open by that owner...it's stated in the bylaws), you will have less studios to choose from. We have less places to work, freaks girls out so less staff to choose from. We get stressed because we have to take on more shifts for the staff that leaves, no new faces because anyone with brains wouldn't bother entering this line of work after all the negative media and personal crap they hear. Shops are quieter because it's the same old, same old staff, shops quiet down for 3 months after a bust wich of course makes moral low and your lovely massuese turns into a bit of a bitch and of course the police sitting back and laughing because they are seeing and getting the results they wanted. Waiting for the next complaint from the disgruntled staff or the jealous owner or the idiot who client who had 10 bucks and wanted a massage...laughing because we do their job for them, we open the door by not being a tight knit group... and they get to come in for the next six months use tax payers money to have their special massage 4 or 10 times within the investigation and then they get us for running a common bawdy house or for being an inmate to one....Each investigation is 80 to $180,000 (their massages included in that ) that comes out of all of our pockets too... the city bylaws get us because we are NO longer allowed to work out of that location or be on the premises(of course less studios)...and then once again were all freaking out...and the retarded cycle starts all over again....Ah mabye we can learn from our mistakes and change the cycle a bit that would be nice P.S. wish me luck cause im sure if the police read this they are gonna really hate my guts but someone had to say it
