What does working in a sauna entail? Curious

there will be several ladies working.  A receptionist will be taking bookings and dealing with clients.  When clients arrive you may be required to line up and greet him so he can choose which lady he wants.  They will require photographs, some may do this free and they will retain the images.  Some may charge you for doing this.  Some may ask you to provide your current images. 

Some places will have an all inclusive fee, so it's basically shit money.  Some places will have a basic house fee and you charge extras in the room.  Each place will have its own rules.

Be prepared to pay reception fees on top of what they take per client.  Most if not all will also require tips to be paid to receptionist/runner/cleaner.  Think of this as a bribe, don't tip and you may just find yourself not being up forward as nicely to clients as other ladies who tip.

You are not employed by them so you will be responsible for your own taxes.  But they may have rules like you have to work exclusively for them, check. 

If the place is ever raided, you are not legally in any trouble for working there, that falls on the receptionist and the owne,  but you will have all your cash confiscated.

As nora batty has explained, you'll have a receptionist who takes bookings, deals with clients (letting them into the flat usually) etc. Most brothels I have worked in have an all inclusive fee re: services (so you often don't earn extras if you offer a specialised service), however this isn't the case with them all. You will pay a basic fee per client to the house and maid.

Working in brothels has its pros and cons - but can be great if you don't want to deal with the clients over the phone yourself. Although, in my experience you have to be very high volume to make a decent amount of money (e.g. I have often had to see 10 or 11 30min clients before I can make £400 after I have paid house fees).

The other thing I should mention is not being able to refuse clients.  Having a bad period or cold sore is not an excuse to miss a shift.  Discretion is not sting inside the parlours, you are likely to have your face picture up on their gallery staff wall even when you're not working.  So any person who know you and punts themselves could see you and out you.  Also mobile phones, they can take a picture of your face picture on the parlour gallery.

They will also advertise you how they want, not how you want.  So they will change your age, your dress size, boobs etc.

I wouldn't work in one myself as I like to say "no" a lot lol.  But my close friend will only work in parlours, as she has no overheads and has no confidence in being indie.  The money's fucking dyer though, she gets £200 for shagging 10 clients.  And half her clients are pond scum.

Thanks girls, sorry I knew what a brothel was. I don't actually remember asking what a sauna/brothel was. Maybe the title has been edited by admin.
Good things to know. Thanks

'Brothel' was added to the title for posters not in Scotland who might not necessarily know that a sauna is the same thing.

I've worked in a brothel and a sauna in England and they were both slightly different in the way they operated.
In the brothel the girls sat in our own room (basically a living room) and waited for clients. When someone came to the door the maid would take them into one of the working rooms and we would all go in there one by one to introduce ourselves. The maid would then go back in and ask him who he picked. We would then go in and ask what service he wanted, take the cash, hand over our share to the maid which was usually 50% and go back in to do the service. Any extras were negotiated at the time and we also had to give 50% of that.
In the sauna the guys paid an entrance fee and came into the room where we all sat. I didn't like that because it's nicdr to have a space away from the clients. He'd look around and choose someone and we would pay 50% from the first booking and £10 per client afterwrads. I made much more in the sauna than the brothel but I preferred the ambience of the brothel. This was a good few years ago so it may have changed since then and I guess not all of them operate in the same way.

Edited to add, in the sauna we had to do all the cleaning at the end of the shift! In the brothel we had a cleaner.

That sounds really nice. I do miss the social side as well. I've heard that some places can be bitchy and competitive but I think I was very lucky because we all got along and the time whizzed by. There was always someone to talk to if you had a horrible client or wanted to let off steam. It's true that we weren't encouraged to oick and choose who we saw but I never felt unsafe as the girls were next door.
