I don't recall ever seeing Guess Bar with a finer stable of fat-pant free fillies.

Another excellent addition with pretty Miss Noname too, but I suspect it won't be long before she's pole dancing in TTChang's members only Pants Bar.

The difference between looking at the pictures from far away back home and actually being there are world's apart.

Today, after Big Dogs from 6pm followed by Obsession later, I headed over to Guess Bar and stayed there for 4 hours. Maybe 7 farang in attendance in total over the period of time which I was there, including myself.

During the 4 hours I was there I checked-binned twice with the intention of leaving each time and settled my bin with a tip, but each time I remained as I continued to chat with other guys and ordered further beers which naturally had new bins associated with them, so far all is well and no problem at all.

On my final departure at around 1am I left B140 in the bin to cover the last beer I'd had (Heineken B135) and left and made my way through the car park. Up until that point the evening had been a quiet and convivial one but it was about to take a turn. Naturally I'd tipped more in each of the previous bins along the way. 

On reaching the periphery of the car park I could hear someone calling, so I stopped and turned. About 5 of the staff then surrounded me and suggested I had underpaid and after several minutes of fruitless discussion in the car park I returned to the bar, by this time the mamasan (I assume) had joined in and suggested the police would be called if I did not settle the bin for an additional Heineken. Plus, during the evening someone had even rung the bell and I'd declined a drink.

To say I was pissed off would be an understatement. I chose to communicate with Moo only at this point while being heckled by others, as Moo seemed the most understanding. Toie (spelling?) who'd received 2 jack & coke LD's (at B175 each) from me during the evening turned into a spiteful little cunt as I didn't take her and apart from two remaining customers it was just me vs. the mob and their opinion.

I had little choice but to concede so I paid another B140 just to walk away. But rest assured I will not be returning to this cunt-hole again while these fuck-sticks, including that horrible cunt of a mamasan, remain on staff.

Day one of my two years away.

I realise times may be tough, so I hope the price of that last ghost Heineken makes them all happy. I will not return.

Hmmmm, maybe it was that whopping 5 baht tip after drinking for four hours that raised their ire

They should have known about your niggardly reputation. Shame on them.

Perhap's you should read DC's post again slappy, because there will surely be a response

I am quaking in my ballet slippers. I always welcome a poignant retort from my old friend DC.

Amen brother! How many times do we read a post from someone who has never been to LOS (and will probably never go) who raves about some girl wanting her number or asking if she's a top or if she will go LT with him when we know she's complete trouble who is a known thief & a complete starfish in the room? It happens on every forum more often than I care to think about.

On my final departure at around 1am I left B140 in the bin to cover the last beer I'd had (Heineken B135) and left and made my way through the car park. Up until that point the evening had been a quiet and convivial but it was about to take a turn.

I wasn't there but I will bet London to a brick that your 140 baht "disappeared" between you leaving it & the barstaff getting your bin.

Plus, during the evening someone had even rung the bell and I'd declined a drink.

Like that makes the slightest bit of difference. I know of guys buying ladydrinks all night & they were still treated like criminals when something went wrong.

Toie (spelling?) who'd received 2 jack & coke LD's (at B175 each) from me during the evening turned into a spitefull little cunt as I didn't take her....

When face is involved this is what you can expect. It is standard LB behaviour. Lub turns to hate as the words "not tonight thank you" come out of your mouth.

I had little choice but to concede so I paid another B140 just to walk away.

You did have a choice but you faced the possibility of a stiletto heel driven into the top of your head. I hesitate to suggest that any of the Guess girls would do such a thing but they are all Thai & that's what they do.

But rest assured I will not be returning to this cunthole again while these fucksticks, including that horrible cunt of a mamasan, remain on staff.

Mardhi has my complete sympathy because this reflects badly on a good bar. After all the time & expense to make Guess everything we want, the girl's behaviour can still override all other considerations. And they wouldn't know Dixon Cox from a bar of soap. To them he's another farang trying to avoid paying his bin. And it is always Mob Rule when trying to sort this stuff out.

Day one of my two years away.

Blimey! That's 7 hours on the squirt on your first day! Another two years of that & you'll finish up an alcoholic like so many others. The girls may have done you a favour.

I realise times may be tough, so I hope the price of that last ghost Heineken makes them all happy. I will not return.

There's ya problem right there... that Heineken... it's cat's piss. And never make ultimatums, one day you may want to return. Leave the door open, life is easier that way.

[batman4ever]

would also have pissed me off...but i would have tried to either call Mardhi...or have one of the girl to contact him...

[samcro]

OUCH !!! sorry to hear about this experience DC.....

You do hear of these situations arising when Mardhi or a senior staff member is not around........... Thailand i guess

Samcro

PS all the best buddy

[jimbo34]

Mistakes do happen, you know. Its far more likely to be that the staff got confused about who was paying for this particular Heineken, especially if DC was moving around the bar socialising. I would bet that its just been put on the wrong bin, rather than a deliberate attempt at fraud, which seems to be the implication of this report and DC's supporters.

And don't forget that the crew have to deal with the cunts that genuinely try to skip their bin. Hence the rather aggressive aproach.

And you can bet your bottom dollar the situation would have been resolved in his favour, if Mardhi had been on site.

It did give me a great deal of pleasure though, thinking of the endless hours of sleep he'll be losing at the thought of losing 3 quid !

[dixon cox]

Thanks for all for the responses.

Ballet slippers?!

It's pretty obvious I was pissed when I made that post last night but I needed to get it off my chest and I'd prefer not to edit it as that was how I felt immediately after it happened. Plus it helped me calm down and continue my evening.

Of course my knee-jerk reaction about not returning to Guess Bar was just me blowing hot air and letting off steam. I apologise to Mardhi for posting what I did, despite it being true, but I could not react to certain staff members because in-country it is Thailand vs. The rest of the World and there will only be one loser, as the dice are so heavily loaded.

Jimbo, yes I agree. What you said above is certainly a possibility and most probably what happened.

Clearly the cost of a Heineken wasn't the issue (to me), it was how I was mob-bullied and treated which caused my frustration as standing outside the bar with one against x-amount is not a nice feeling and there's nothing I could do about it as everything fell on deaf ears.


I've been going to Thailand long enough now to know that the best course of action is to just pay up (within reason) and walk away, rather than tempting an undesirable fate where the consequences can be far greater.

Bastard! ~ I knew someone would enjoy my story for the wrong reason


Today's another day in Bangkok and I'll be giving it all another go.

[petesie]

Good to hear you took it on the chin DC and not let it spoil your trip.

Great to hear you intend to return too...i expect there might be one on the house when you're there...

Clearly it was a misunderstanding as I can't see them getting bent out of shape other than assuming incorrectly you were a "bin escapee.

I remember the tale of Dirty Mike ringing the bell then realising he'd no money and fled down WS pursued by a gang of LB's...

Enjoy your trip mate.

It's these little things that we can do without when traveling...

I'm surprised they acted like they did over 140 baht, especially when you paid 3 tabs.

I think Mardhi needs to have a word to his staff about this type of thing.

As for trying to explain your way out of it... good luck.

At Anaconda one night i went to pay my bar bill. The tab was in dispute...

But in this instance i was trying to actually pay for drinks that were missing from my tab!

Fuck me... do you think it was easy to actually make them understand they had missed a drink or two and i owed them a little more.

Try paying for more drinks than on your tab and see how confused these poor staff get

Its amazing how many times i have had customers do that in my bar - thank Christ for customers like you, Azza!

Glad you're over it DC - remember they may well get missing stock deducted from their salaries. And if it happens too often, their jobs are at stake. At C & Ds on 2 occasions over my tenure we've sacked all the bar staff for suspected fiddling. And there's no notice period or appeal - instant dismissal is just that - instant. So, quite rightly, the staff will try to make sure the books balance.
I'm absolutely sure this was just a case of putting somebody else's Heineken on your bin.
Enjoy some sleep tonight!
