Reply With QuoteWait till you deal with customers who are drunk, rowdy, violent, on drugs, who flake out on appointments, abuse the girls, start fights with staff, start fights with other customers or try to rob, extort or threaten you.
My job is very stressful-Im considering a career change. I am wondering if you know much about this position? It seems to pay well and lots of hours available as the shops are open 24 hours sometimes. They pay $50 per hour.
It doesnt sound like a very stressful thing to do. Just organise a root, transact. And I assume there wont be much competition to do it.
Can you give me any insight as to what this position entails before I potentially apply one day?
Would you do it if you had the chance?
The idea of sitting around on my arse is very appealing to me.

I presume for an Indian owned shop the manager would owe the shop money.Originally Posted by Zhangwao
Would be a very tough job dealing with junkies and the bottom of the barrel

Note to self: Never put a punter in charge of recruitment.
Essentially its a customer service job. Customer Service jobs generally suck. Just read some of the more infamous or combative threads or responses on this forum to start getting a sense of some of the customers you'd be dealing with.
There's also going to be an element of management. Managing people generally sucks. The receptionist probably isn't doing the rosters or hiring, but they're dealing with the WLs on the day, between punterss causing trouble and girls causing trouble there's probably not a great deal of joy there.
Also I assume management/owners would probably frown on the receptionist fucking the other workers, so probably not as many job perks as you'd think.
Maybe weigh up the pros and cons, OP.
The cons are many as others have said. This industry unfortunately tends to attract unsavoury characters. It's all part of the "culture", I don't even know what else to call it. Drug dealers, goons, thugs, people you don't normally have to deal with in any other customer service jobs you have to deal with them here. Even "normal" dudes who don't fit into that category can become friends in a brothel setting due to the testosterone levels there.
I don't think this is the job for "stress relief", loll...
Yeah i no a guy worked at stripper joint, girls would come in off the street looking for work and he'd ending smashing lol
Not much upside to such a job!
Fuk, imagine having to deal with "us"!!
Yeah I agree man.
Bro, are you serious she got a 10k tip ? Holy shit.
Are you sure you want to use Woolies as an example? Have you not seen the staff harassment videos they circulated a couple of years ago?

The thing is, this shit happening in Woolies is an anomaly. Maybe they get 1 in 100k customers. In a brothel setting? Your guess is as good as mine how much shit happens there and how often. People only go there when testosterone levels are high, not so with Woolies and Maccas.
And my auto-correct fucked up my OG post. I meant "normal" blokes can turn into FIENDS when in a brothel. Some blokes just cannot handle their testosterone.
Haha, that makes more sense. I was thinking, friends? The normal blokes are becoming friends with the goons and thugs? Seemed odd, but who am I to contradict?
Brothel receptionists.... I don't know how many times I've wished *she* was in the line-up, more than the line-up girls!

Any *she* in particular?
Actually happened to have some long chats with receptionists on two occasions this week while waiting for the punt. Yeah, hearing some of the crap they have to deal with … probably no worse than a lot of jobs, but by no means easy, stress free and sitting on your arse all day!
Can you give me some examples?
I genuinely cant imagine what could happen there to be so bad. Maybe ignorance and lack of imagination
What could he be stressed out about?
I genuinely dont know and cant imagine what could be so bad about it
just watch Midnight Mafia on YT. Great music. you must have had a great night. Reminds me of the rave parties in the 90's but smaller venues less people. similar music, alot of techno trance. they where good times.
