Rayne @ Muse - Receptionist

[orlando_salcido]

Always look on the bright side of life.

 

[XxKarToonxX]

Well, you and those others have absolutely no idea what you're talking about! However, think what you want; it makes no difference to me. I have the discretionary income to hobby as I like and that annoys others.
Geez, white knight, I'd rather be a knight of the round table Galahad.

Truly credit or discredit, who really cares because no two experiences will be the same.

 

[Subhas]

If no two experiences are the same, I am baffled by the passionate advocacy on both sides in this thread. No one person's experience is any more or less valid than another.

Go to Muse or don't go. Make up your own mind and enjoy life for what it is.

 

[paja]

I'm talking in general in this thread. The OP didn't fully appreciate the surroundings on that busy night, but just the level of defending and scrutiny of his post and character IMO was over the top.

I will also say for Rayne that it is not easy job, and if she did bash its not like she is the excpetion (which I was trying to suggest - everybody / everywhere does it) . And I am sure that it was a difficult night. Obviously Emily and Riley think she is doing a good job so she will overcome this minor criticis.

 

[Super Jesus]

Really, what has haunted me? I'm still active in the hobby and I 'm not leaving anytime soon. A certain sp that gets permanently banned basically everywhere. You're no better than her! Are you truedat? because you certainly have similar qualities or are you that sp.

For whatever reason, Mechanic went out of his way to bash a women that isn't a SP or MPA. There's no review it's a vendetta. He's stated he won't go back to muse and they're probably happy about that. There will always be new clients. Mechanic is pissed off because he missed out on the free doorfee that's why he's constantly referring to it.

More and more massageplanet.net members are coming out and calling out the white knights and members of the Muse fanboy wolfpack who are trying to censor, bully, and intimidate those who speak the truth. The truth movement will prevail, and I think from now on massageplanet.net will be seeing less white knights like HOF, Dalton, Reaper etc., since the members of this board are demanding truthful and accurate reviews. I encourage more supporters of the truth movement to come out and post in this thread. Noone wants to read reviews from shills, white knights, and fanboys, people want real reviews, and when they write real, accurate, and truthful reviews they don't want to be censored and bullied by the white knights and fanboys who are trying to seek freebies from the mps and agencies. This thread is the beginning of the end of the white knights, and the start of a new accurate and truthful forum, this is good news for the members of massageplanet.net. Don't be afraid of the bullying and censoring attempts at the hands of the Muse fanboy wolfpack, they're a dying breed, if more people stand up to them the truth will prevail.

I'm not hoping to get anything out of this, this is a review board and I'm letting other customers know my experiences with Muse, which have already been proven to be factual, and I believe other customers have the right to know that Rayne bashes their physical appearance behind their back. That's the whole point of this review board, to get honest reviews, and not censor everything that's factual.

With that said, I do not want a free door fee for my next session. I've not asked for one, or even hinted that that's what I want. My pockets are deep enough to be able to pay for things without hand-outs, and even if I was offered one I would decline it. If it was my receptionist and my business I personally would have fired her on the spot for her actions instead of trying to defend the indefensible, but it's not my business and the owners are free to do what they'd like. Others have pointed out that if I don't like their business practices I shouldn't financially support their business, and I think that's the right and mature thing to do. I have nothing against Muse, Emily and Riley or any of the MPA's there, but after some thought it would make little sense for me to continue to indirectly pay Rayne's salary, so I'll stop going, end of story.

 

[California Girl!]

I don't think it's necessary for Rayne to apologize as this has been out in the open for too long and will probably make some adjustments for the better. But how did you know she realized her mistake? Did she talk to you the same way she talked to HG?

 

[Shep]

A right to know what? That you missed your turn because you left the premises which were busy. You snooze, you lose! You must be terrible at business to carry such nonsense. If you're not happy, don't use the service again. Initially, you were going to continue now that you didn't get the girl canned you claim that you won't go back.

Really, if you're so concerned about what the girls may/may not say about clients, you can choose another hobby.

Short, stout, stalky, obese, skinny, bald, balding, toupee, full head of hair, odour, disability, unattractive, endowed or not, and many other attributes of clients are dealt with on a daily basis. Who cares as long as you achieve a happy ending and leave with a smile. Oops, you can't even get in the door!

 

[Jack S]

Yes, I told her I'd just be out for a quick smoke. If I didn't return, or if she couldn't find me after 25 minutes that would be understandable, but I returned after 10 minutes and she gave someone else the room because she couldn't find me.

The appropriate thing for her to do was to 1) not give me an exact timeframe, and say that it will be a few minutes and if you go out for a smoke and the room is ready before you return I'll give your spot to someone else, or 2) hold my spot for at least 25 minutes since that's the timeframe she gave me, which should be honoured.

 

[mo ree uh]

Are you accusing me of getting or trying to get freebies? Facts before fiction because that's a flat lie on your part. Rule 5.

 

[Sunshine Smile]

Really dude six paragraphs to say that Rayne wasn't nice to you. I wonder how many hours she worked and how many impatient individuals there were. If you had any common sense, you would have sent Emily and/or Riley a message and not posted such nonsense about someone that isn't a MPA.

Obviously, you have never been to such an event; there are going to be delays just like the 401.

Did you get some cheese with your whine?

 

[Pompal 09.]

Ditto. It was a negative review and should be taken with a grain of salt. I know E or R will professionally handle this matter but I guess WK's draw quicker.

 

[Lozz]

I just hope you weren't one of the customers that Rayne was bashing behind their back...that would be ironic.

 

[knightrunner13]

TheMechanic...

Thanks for taking the time to write out your frustrations. Unfortunately 90% of this we do not agree with, please allow me to explain....

Our Anniversary event was our busiest Open House to date. With the launch of our expansion, June 3rd was the 1st day for reception and attendants to get used to the new flow. Riley and I were in around 7am til just after 8pm. We saw Rayne in action all day. She often puts even Riley & I to shame in her juggling skills. Im sorry that it seems she had tried to find you and the timing mix up began. Im glad you got in for a session, because many did not. Thats a perfect example of her ability to balance the clock.

If you read all the other threads about our Open House, Rayne is commended for her management skills. Not only to keep the girls on-time, but in line, on point, and professional. She is also amazing with you boys!! She can flirt like the best of us, yet be stern when needed. Rayne doesnt take any shit hahahaha! (Much like her bosses!). All of the girls have made a point of thanking Rayne for her hard work that day, and many came to us saying "I dont know where you guys found her, but she is amazing!" Not once has a girl ever said Rayne was rude or otherwise. In fact, we called her that night with glowing thanks and an invite for a special celebration out on the town for us to get a chance to thank her for her very hard work. Rayne treats MUSE like her own spa, her level of dedication is unmatched! Rayne is our most valuable asset.

As for the client-bashing...I have discussed this with her. I agree, not professional. However, in the defence of all my staff, we did have a few ummm, special types visit. With a FREE promotion, everyone under the sun visits. We had a few unpleasent fellows, a few cheapos who thought its was all free, and a few customers that were asked to leave due to behavior/hygiene. As much as we have a high standard in staff/services, we also hold a standard for clientele. No riffraff at MUSE, lol!

This does not however justify venting within earshot of customers. Or really, even on site. That should be done over a glass of wine after shift out at a bar.

Im so happy to hear you have enjoyed Juliette, Dallas, and our latest addition Carmen...what amazing ladies!! It sucks you didnt win the Durex prize. There were 5 ballots in that prize and I've heard from all of you who entered! LOL 4 of you shocked you didnt win! All of our winners (except for 2) have come to collect their prizes with winning ballots in hand. (actually the Jays game was last nite! Both winners are here on the board...hope u all had fun!!) We can't wait for the next MUSE event, and hope you come join us. Come say hello to Riley & I and we can chat further any time.

Thanks for the feedback TM.

Love,
Emily & Riley

Good and bad reviews are equally subject to feedback, whether positive or negative. If negative, it should be constructive and fair. In turn, such critics shouldn't be attacked with FB/WK generalizations or ad hominem attacks.

BTW, isn't advising the OP to target my review with a thumbs down ganging up on me?

How objective is that? (It's definitely hypocritical).

 

[fixed wheel yellowbelly]

With all due respect Mr. TheMechanic, you never answered any of my questions or my arguments.

If you feel as strongly as you do in this post, why didn't you speak to Emily and Riley when you had the perfect opportunity days later as you admitted in your opening post? (Scratching my head, I thought I'd empathize now).

Here's my take on this whole fiasco:

I think you may have slipped through the cracks as opposed to her passing you over. Maybe that was YOUR perception and it festered inside you, but you didn't have the balls to confront the owners at the time. Maybe you felt more comfortable complaining about what you saw or heard or experienced later on the board rather than before? Admittedly, you shouldn't be faulted for that.

If I heard you said all of the above, I probably would've had more respect for your position. But the only counterpoint I heard from you was the same old and tired rhetoric about fanboys and whiteknights. Your rebuttal lacked substance if not humble honesty. You dug yourself in deeper instead of perhaps show some humility? I dunno.

That's the end of my rant and I don't mean to begrudge you. I hope you can return to Muse and if it's Lexi (saw her Sunday - wow) you want to roll out the red carpet for you, all the power to you.

 

[sheloves_dablues]

Whoa. Simmer down there crusader.

Fanboys and white knights will never go away. Just part of the industry landscape and a dynamic of having a popular business.

Just figure out who you can trust, experience for yourself and develop your own opinions. The rest is just static noise.

 

[Pompal 09.]

So it sounds like you believe E&R's response to this, and Rayne's reported remorse for her actions, is inadequete. It sounds like nothing short of having this poor girl fired would be sufficient for you.

I'm glad it seems E&R won't even entertain this notion, because I think that would be cutting off the nose to spite the face. If that means they lose you as a customer, well, so be it, I guess..

 

[Andrea H]

I've read some of HOF's other posts, he tries to bash and intimidate others and defends the indefensible, my guess is so that he can get freebies, pretty pathetic if you ask me. He's another member of the Muse fanboy wolfpack that's been discredited.

Next!
