I agree that they are quite different outside the AMP milieu. Part of the reason for this is that they're largely acting when they play the "geisha" role; they know that a lot of us mongers get a kick out of that, so they play it up, hoping it will get them a bigger tip. The reality is that most of them hate the job, hate having to wear a fake smile all day long, and just want to get as far away from the AMP as possible when they're off. Their outside personalities run the gamut, from lively, assertive, to totally dependent, and even morose. Anyone who wants to see them on the outside for a "freebie" better be prepared to make a committment , emotionally and financially. These girls aren't stupid, and know how to size up a situation to their advantage
