Go mags! That iS the true heart of a beauty queen. She even calls the nanny Nanay Belen. may mga kakilala ako, magkakano lang naman ang sahod, yaya ang tawag sa mga help.Imbyerns.
some establishments don't want to deal with cash for security reasons. this is to prevent the crew or would be robbers from stealing the cash. since they're in an island, it might not be easy to deposit to a bank its daily earnings. this setup is not exclusive to them but it also practiced outside of our country. i wish certain people would stop over-reacting just for publicity.
Gusto kasi ng Balesin alta lang pumunta sa kanila bawal normal na tao. Their resort, their rules. I agree with Maggie though that they should train their staff in how to reply to guests. Maggie, kung gusto mo since Consunji ka naman na magtayo ka din ng sarili mong resort. For sure with your policies makakapasok ako, lol.
I think mali lang talaga yung waiter at hello! Meron ba namang resto who would not want even yayas to order expensive food!
Pero i think may mga guests din who asked for this. Marami nannies and helpers na hindi naman kasing ADVENTUROUS ang taste kesa sa mga amo nila. Like yung friend ko, yan lagi prob nya at stress kase gusto lang ng MGA yaya nya, simpleng food. Ang dami na din nya nasayang na food at pera, gutom pa yung yaya. Kung burgers, Jollibee lang ang gusto. Kaya siguro yan ang naisip nila kase nakakasayang din ng pera at food tapos yung kumain, hindi naman nagenjoy. Karamihan naman talaga ng nannies at help, gusto at enjoy sa Filipino food lang. Like itong manang namin, hindi yan mapapakain ng Kahit ano pang cuisine. Driver namin, ganon din. Practicality din yan. Kahit naman ako, baka masarapan din sa yaya meals dyan sa balesin. Syempre hindi naman basta adobo lang yan. Kaya yung iba dyan, super OA lang magreact.
I agree.. Im not being matapobre.. Pero this is balesin. If they are talking about discrimination sa mga yaya then why dont they boycott malls that sell yaya uniforms.
"Opinions are like armpits, everyone has them and some of them stink." - Corey Turner
true!!! bakit ba kasi nega kagad ang dating pag sinabing yaya meal. MAY PILITAN BANG NANGYARI? EH PUEDE NAMAN LUMAMON NG REGULAR MEAL ANG MGA MIMAY NA YAN!!! Mga tao talaga maka opinyon lang. Puede ba magsitigil kayo!!!
Hindi lang confined sa nannies/helpers ang non-adventurous food taste. What they shouldn't have done is made "yaya meals" in the first place. They may have less expensive items on the menu, which everyone with an appetite and an ability to pay can order, but having yaya meals and insisting on them? Ridiculous practice. Not even in the most affluent countries do they have yaya meals.
The idea stems from condescension and stinks of human segregation.
Sa other exclusive clubs, open secret daw yan nanny meals. Hindi lang nila maformalize kase iisipin discrimination. At ang may kasalanan talaga dyan, yung waiter kase OPTION lang daw yan. Sino namang resto ang ayaw ng regular meals for all ustomers!?
Sa restos, Less expensive , less nakakabusog! Ang typical pinoy, kanin at ulam! At ang mga help, need all the energy they can get.
Yung isa ko ngang nakita na help, hindi maipinta ang mukha nang malaman walang rice sa lunch.
Good point! Di ko actually naisip yan but come to think of it minsan nga hirap pumili yung helpers sa regular menu sa ibang restos kasi nga di nila type yung food. Minsan nag o-order nalang sa kiddie menu.
I don't think na pini-push at ininsist naman na yun lang ang food for the Nanay Belen or any nanny.
Pretentious lang ang establishments na ganyan. It would be impractical to do that here. Even in countries where credit cards are the usual mode of payment, they rarely insist on that rule! (if a card is, say, declined, the customer should always retain the option to pay in cash.)
E papano nga kung ayaw nun mayaman mag credit card! Utang kaya yun! Mayaman ka nga pero uutang ka sa bangko para makakain ng mahal??? Yun lang ang point dun papano kung walang cc ang kakain papano kunh ayaw ng mayaman mag cc hndi pwede kumain!???!
1259, yes thats true... But in the first place they would not have been given a credit card if the bank saw that they dont have the ability to pay. Hence the requirement for an ITR, employment contract, or other proofs of income.
i have 5 CCs and im nowhere near being rich. Only applied for 1 for emergency purposes, all others were just sent to me. Nalubog lang ako sa utang because of those CCs, now that ive cleared them all, ive stuck to using just one (sparingly). CCs only give you the illusion of being rich, i prefer / its better to have cash.
I don't agree with such thing as the yaya meal or separate meal for staff. But ith club only accept credit card or charge to the members account is a policy of the most of the private country club here in the US. We belong to a private golf and country club. Our club only accept charge to the member's account. In the first place, you are not allowed to go there without being invited by a member so everything falls o the member's responsibility. Members paid tons of one to enjoy the club facilities exclusively.
I and my husband opted to cut our other credit cards and just keep one for emergency. We realize that we tend to overspend and not stick to a budget kng laging credit card ang gamit. Anything we couldn't pay in cash, indi nmin bibilhin... So buti nlng indi pa pang a-list ang bulsa nmin or else magugulat din kmi kng tatanggihan kmi mgbayad ng cash.
I get Maggie's point but on I think this is a little over top oa, it's resort's policy - deal with it.
Sometimes kasi ang mga guests, masyadong feeling entitled, any policy na hindi nila gusto automatically eh gustong papalitan. I am sure naisip na yan ng Balesin or someone has pointed this out to them (privately), hindi lang Mom and Yaya mo ang walang credit card but there is a good reason why they've decided against yet.
In business there is a thing called revenue displacement, baka based sa study and experience nila, its better if they implement payment via cc only. Businesswoman ka din Maggie, you weigh you options, and will go with kung alin ang makakabuti sa business mo.
I'm sure may iba pang better resorts dyan na willing magaccept ng cash, dun ka na lang. Go!
We heard what you have to say, we agree to some, move on na.
"Which of the members insisted on it" gurl, do you think Balesin is as stupid as you? Do you think they will spill the beans? and in the remotest event that they will tell you who insisted on such policy, ano naman ang magagawa mo? idedemanda mo sila? aber? mag isip isip ka nga!
According to her statement "I would like to know which members insisted on it!" Wow! What will she do if she found out? Have them expelled? Shame them by posting on social media? Have them arrested? She's getting arrogant.
Charging food to the credit card and or charging it to a member's tab is a common practice to most of the exclusive and private clubs, in this case, resort. If she doesn't like how they run it, particularly the method of payment then just cancel her membership. As simple as that.
ginanahan naman masyado si ateng sa pagrarant about sa balesin lol. masyadong OA na. mahirap sa balesin na tumanggap ng pera kasi ISLAND sya. at hindi lang basta island..ISOLATED sya. mahirap tumanggap ng pera. mainit sa mata ng mga magnanakaw and worse NPA. baka next time na ireklamo naman nya eh about security. makidnap sya. its about safety my dear. isip isip din minsan. wag magpadala sa trending lol
Natawa ako sa "I would like to know which member..." statement. Ayan na. Lumabas na din ang sense of entitlement ni madam. Blown WAY out of proportion. The help CAN get anything they want on the menu, Maggie said so herself. It was the waiter's mistake. His answer to Maggie's mother, why she couldn't get the same food that was wrong. Lacked proper traning. That's it. As for the CC issue, as others explained, it's a logistics thing. No nearby banks. Tama na to.
Itong mga pinagdadadakdak nya eh mukhang mga solutions na to previous problems they have encountered! Napaka feeling magaling!!!!! Pinaliwanag na nga na NAGKAMALI LANG ANG WAITER, nagrararatrat pa sa facebook!!! Kaya hindi na chinacharge sa room ang food purchases, minsan hi di nalalaman ng guest ang purchases ng iba nyang kasama!!! Walang bangko sa balesin kaya puro credit card transactions!!!! MAGPATAYO KA NG SARILI MONG RESORT!!!! Echusera!
My sentiments exactly. Nagmamarunong si girl kulang naman sa utak. the no credit card policy is for the protection of the members who may have abusive guests who order all the expensive stuff because THEY won't be charged for it.
This is really a perfect example of #richepopleproblems. Is she fighting for the rights of the "marginalized" few exclusive club members who don't have credit cards (apparently they exist in 2015). Inaapi ba sila ng big bad Balesin? LOL.
From a security and logistics standpoint, not having alot of cash on the island sounds practical.
Kung ayaw mo ng ganyan systema, wag ka na mag member or sa Boracay ka pumumta. Wala naman pumipilit sayo. Papansin much! Nag rant ka na kahaba haba, hanggang ngayon dika parin tapos? Some may think their policy is weird but they want exclusivity. Mga sosyal ayaw humabilo sa ordinariong tao. Kahit ang ordinariong tao ayaw rin naman pumunta sa sosyal na lugar at mafeel out of place. Truth is Maggie, kung maka masa ka, hindi ka nagpakasal sa bilionaryo. At sana sa Luneta ka mag walking walking, sa turo turo ka kumain, sa bangketa ka mag shopping. Such a hypocrite
Sige 10:08, yakapin mo ang konsepto ng hindi pagkakapantay-pantay ng mga tao! Ibandera mo na meron dapat diskriminasyon ang mataas sa mababang lipunan. Kung ikaw tanggap mo yan, sorry ka kung may mga taong hinde. Such an irrational being you are.
Ano ba Maganda sa balesin? Hinde Kaya maganda yung beach nila masydo mabato. Kahit sino pa mayaman na pumunta sa balesin at ganyan ang rules nila hinde sila pupuntahan . Mag palawan na Lang Ako MAS masasabi ko Mas maganda pa!
I worked sa isang exclusive golf clubs before and they don't accept cash as well pag kumakaen sa restos or when they use facilities. For members, they present their cards and they will be billed on their monthly dues. Pag guests naman, they provide guest cards so dun ililisa lahat ng naavail ng guest. It's up with the members if they willHave it charged sa member's account or they will settle the dues before leaving the club. I think ganan dapat lahat ng clubs.
Kahit anong mahal pa yan, may pang mayaman na food or pang yaya, may credit card o wala, lahat tayo pag namatay uod pa rin ang kakain sa atin. Tandaan niyo lahat yan. Bwahahahaha...
Maggie, may I suggest Tripadvisor.com or Agoda? Dun mo ipost reviews mo, so both the Balesin management and people who wish to travel there can be informed of your experience there & your suggestions. Sometimes hotel owners even take the time to reply there.
May pagka attention-seeking kasi ang dating pag sa social media pa pinopost ang reviews for a resort.
ang point lng naman ni maggie wilson eh kung na-afford ung club membership eh bakit hindi kaya nila pakainin ung mga yaya nila sa same food din na inioofer sa knila and besides kaya ka nagdala ng yaya eh kargo mo un kailangan mo un pakainin.kung nalalaman lng ng yaya na ikaw magbabayad ng meal mo eh bkit pa yan sasama or sana nagbaon n lng c yaya ng food.hehe db?

Yung mga comments dito na nagsasabing OA si Maggie or dapat tanggapin blah blah blah, kinakarir, etc.. This is exactly why walang nagyayari sa mga corruption, kaipokritahan, kasamaan, kababawan, patayan, nakawan, discrimination, etc etc sa Pilipinas. Someone is standing up to this ridiculous rule that's downright sick but you all want to turn a blind eye. Ang mga ibang Pinoy ang galing magreklamo pero ayaw gumawa ng paraan para maiba ang sistema. Kalurkey kayo.
KUDOS to you Maggie. Sana matauhan ang ibang Pilipino.
Ultimately yaya meals exist because of the employers themselves. Kung hindi sila magrerequest niyan hindi gagawa ang Balesin niyan I think. So tama nga si Maggie, kung afford mo mag member sa exclusive club afford mo magpakain ng kasambahay mo ng meal na gusto nila kainin.
Also mali rin naman na tawagin yun yaya meal, they can just name it something else such as "quick bites" or something quick kasi konti lang sandali lang ubos na. hahahaha.
Dapat talaga maitrain ng maiigi ang mga staff nila. Aside sa paglabel ng 'yaya's meal' baka hindi nga talaga maganda ang pagkakasabi ng waiter. Given na maganda ang intensyon ng pagkakaroon ng ganung klaseng meal nasa way pa din yun ng pagexplain sa customers. Yung credit card policy, understandable naman. Mas convenient sa balesin na credit card na lang kesa cash. Pano kung puro buo ang pera at naubusan ng panukli? San sila hahagilap ng pambarya e island yan dba? Tawid pa sa kabila? Lol Nakapagpamember nga dba ng 3M so kahit 1card meron, at kung yung kasama e walang cc pwede naman ipabill sa member dun. It's good na nagsalita si maggie atleast dba napagusapan at naging aware karamihan.
Sige magpaka relevant
ReplyDeleteTeh, she's fighting for something that's worth fighting for. It's not about her pagpaparelevant. Kuha mo?
DeleteAng shunga naman ng business nila. Cash is and will always be better than credit.
DeleteCredit cards are good but we need cash- just saw this in some establishment...hahaha
DeleteHahaha. Oo nga. Masyadong mema si Ate. Parang hindi pa nakakapunta ng exclusive resort. lol.
DeleteGo mags! That iS the true heart of a beauty queen. She even calls the nanny Nanay Belen. may mga kakilala ako, magkakano lang naman ang sahod, yaya ang tawag sa mga help.Imbyerns.
ReplyDeleteWhat's wrong with "Yaya"? Baka gusto mo Tita, Lola, Mommy? Not everyone wants to use the same familial terms to people they are not related to.
DeletePS My kids also call their nannies with familial terms. But I never saw Yaya as a derogatory term.
There's nothing wrong with the word yaya, what's unacceptable here is how they discriminate people...
DeleteUy! Nabigyan kasi ng atensyon. Gustong i-maintain....
ReplyDeleteTama naman opinyon nya kaya wag kang epal
DeleteTama na sana ang opinion nya kung hindi balesin. if you dont like their rules then dont go... Alot of people will still go even if you dont.
DeleteNega much or you dont get her point? Also it is obvious she was not aware of it prior going to Balesin, so stfu
DeleteHindi nmn nkpublic ang rules ng balesin. malamang dun na nya nalaman yon. dami ninyong alam
Deletesome establishments don't want to deal with cash for security reasons. this is to prevent the crew or would be robbers from stealing the cash. since they're in an island, it might not be easy to deposit to a bank its daily earnings. this setup is not exclusive to them but it also practiced outside of our country. i wish certain people would stop over-reacting just for publicity.
DeleteShe doesn't need attention because she's a Consunji! Do you even know who the Consunjis are?
DeleteAyan nakahanap sila ng katapat nila. Go maggie. I hope they will learn from this
ReplyDeleteparehong mayaman hehehe

Kahit household help namin iba iba ang taste sa pagkain. Kaya buy nalang ako ng isda or karne at bahala na sila kung ano ang gusto nilang luto.
DeleteI concur. Inexperienced cgro ang server kaya ng-react ng di pwedeng iserve ang yaya meal sa mother ni Maggi.

DeleteMembership resorts don't really accept cash- you haven't been Tagaytay Highlands man lang where bill is forwarded to the member's account? Duh.

DeleteAnon 2:21 siguro isa ka sa nag request na magkaroon ng tinatawag na "yaya meal" matapobre! LOL
Delete2.21
Deletepareho lang ang tagaytay highlands at balesin. parehong overrated!
speaking of discrimination, ba't kaya bawal sa tagaytay highlands ang mga cheap looking cars and bikes?
takot sa riding in tandem?

Anon 12:45 - if you're really a banker, you'd know that not all who have credit cards have cash.

ReplyDeleteYung credit card policy, understandable naman. Mas convenient sa balesin na credit card na lang kesa cash. Pano kung puro buo ang pera at naubusan ng panukli? San sila hahagilap ng pambarya e island yan dba? Tawid pa sa kabila? Lol Nakapagpamember nga dba ng 3M so kahit 1card meron, at kung yung kasama e walang cc pwede naman ipabill sa member dun.
It's good na nagsalita si maggie atleast dba napagusapan at naging aware karamihan.
The policy should be checked by BSP. Bakit hindi na legal tender ang cash/peso sa Pilipinas?
