From a reader:

Hey FuelMix

A quick update on CE. Dropped in early Monday evening, Tuesday was a public holiday so thought maybe there would be an interesting crowd ........NOT.

A small group of average GWMs and some GAMS including one bragging that he has no trouble getting into Hutong and he prefers to go there. He was nothing to look at either.  Was surprised that even though the next day was a public holiday there wasn't much to choose from and few people there.

It's well known that CE empties  by about 7pm.  A black tourist came in at that time as the leftover customers were leaving.  The staff were fawning all over him, showing him where everything was - but not telling him that he'd pretty much have the whole place to himself.  I felt sorry for this guy since he'd already paid.

I just think it's so unethical that the staff won't tell the truth and say the place is dead after 7pm and suggesting he come back earlier - or suggest another sauna that is busier in the evenings like Alexander or whatever.

The simple act of giving him his cash back and directing him elsewhere, would build up a ton of goodwill for them. Instead they just took the cash and said nothing.


FuelMix says:

Yeah agreed.  The only time FuelMix was impressed by sauna staff ethics was in Action where the staff politely told him that it was dead at the moment (a weekday evening), declined to take his money and directed him to My Way or Alexander.

Thanks for the update.
