SAPPORO (TR) – Following the request that the name Tokyo Electric Power Co. appear on a receipt for a sex club in Sapporo’s Susukino red-light district earlier this month, the establishment has decided to ban patronage from that firm, reports daily tabloid Yukan Fuji (Sept. 17).
On September 14, the fuzoku shop
Olive Garden announced on its blog that it would not honor patrons hailing from TEPCO — in fact, it joked that the nuclear meltdown at Fukushima had sapped some of their virility in any case.
The reason for the ban goes back to an incident that occurred two days prior. “At around 10:30, a customer ordered the 70-minute course for 13,000 yen,” the shop manager tells the tabloid. “Upon exiting, he asked that no name be listed on the receipt. However, this shop doesn’t allow that kind of thing. After a second request for a name was made, he said, ‘TEPCO.’”
Receipts without a shop name are often arranged for customers wishing to make a claim for entertainment expenses and not reveal the nature of the services rendered to their company’s accounting department.
