Yes I'd agree with your numbers - however, in Pattaya last year Romeo boys might jump at even 500bt, and be very happy with 1,000 - I'm now getting the feeling that 1,000 for a bar boy is seen as quite "frugal" and expectations are creeping up, especially for over-nights. Meals are certainly appreciated, but don't detract from the need for cash to pay the rent!

I think 1,200 to 1,500 will soon become the minimum expected for short time, and 1,500 to 2,000 for single over-nights.
