Hard life.

Yesterday while enduring the exquisite pain of a Thai massage I engaged the masseuse in some conversation. She spoke some English. I learned that she works 1pm to 1am six days a week with Wednesday as her day off. She get paid a % of the cost of the massage. For example a 2 hour Thai massage costs 330Baht ($11.) and she gets 140Baht ($4.25)plus whatever tip the customer chooses to give. Typically she'll do two to four massages a day.
Tips vary depending upon the country from which the customer comes. Japanese tip quite well, Chinese give small tips, Indians don't tip at all and Europeans tip like Japanese. Australians are OK. Americans? "No American customer." Present company excepted I assume.
She is from Laos and her family still lives there. She gets one week of unpaid vacation a year which she uses to visit her family. It takes a day coming and going to her home in Laos using a bus. Her younger sister also works with her.
Should I have given her a tip? :)
