Toys are bit too personal, and I hate the thought of them turfing it after they say how big and sexy it is,,,,,
what a waste. Food and drink on the other hand,,,, pffft ,,,,,, Canada is still 1st World for now ....
who cares if they dump drinks, chuck food. I know an MPA that works 10 hours mostly alone, will
bring her home cooked meals.
And to others, I have brought wine, tea, fruit, Sushi, Canto Food, Chocolates,
trail mix, baked goods, pastries, cookies, so much stuff. If you guys think MPA's are getting chubbier, ya that's me.
The way past the MPA's YMMV gated threshold is through the stomach, for me anyway,
you Brad Pitt's can impress them with your pedicures and painted toe nails.
One MPA gave me fruit in a grocery bag as I was leaving, it was different melons and I'm not a melon fruit fan.
I cut up all the melons, tossing some softer portions, and put it in an old (but cleaned) repurposed fruit container from the market,
brought it to her the very next day but did not say anymore or even stay. The next time I saw her after that,
maybe couple weeks or less, she told me not to bring store cut / bought fruit again, the last bunch was spoiled.
Many people do not know that with the Chinese loosing face is a huge concern. So if you bring them goods and they do not
at least try to reciprocate, their culture has them believe they will lose face, both to themselves and others
who might have noticed. Often it becomes a competition, you give them something, they give you extra, extra's and
a hot tea, along with some baozi.
