I think more girls in beer bars are freelancers than in the past.
Think this is a win-win-win for the girl, the customer, and the barowner.
For example in Katty Bar, I think Teya who doubles as the cashier and everyone else is a freelancer.
Think for a brand new girl in town, it might be best to be on salary though. Once you get a following who needs a fine for not showing up on time?
In most gogos the girls are not freelancers. They are quite often Agency Girls.
The internet has been a great disruptor and the channels of distribution for P4P sex has changed in Thailand.
