I've been running a spa for a short time, and there are some things I just can't make sense of. As the title says, taking a deposit is a measure to protect the shop and the therapists from clients standing them up. Some people think their personal info will be leaked because of a transfer (leak? like your mother's pubic hair spilling all over the floor and impossible to clean up). The shop will never know the full account number — the system only shows the last few digits, so there's no real risk of information leakage.

Those penniless people who have never booked a therapist but ask question after question, please don't contact the therapists. Are you afraid of stepping on a landmine??! Therapists aren't scared of running into broke people like you who want free sex — what are you so worried about?

And those who take pleasure in standing people up can just drop dead where they stand. I wish you get HIV, syphilis and genital warts, and then never have a dick or a partner to sleep with again.

All of the above is simply because today I was stood up again by a new customer who guaranteed they wouldn't no‑show. I was very upset, so I'm venting.

Dear customers, if shops require deposits in the future to protect themselves, please don't blame the shops for being overly cautious — there are simply too many malicious no‑shows by customers.

Thank you, everyone
