It appears on a payslip under the "conceptos" section. Other than that, there is no specific context. Would it be "bartender allowance"? I am unsure about the term mesones.

I think the author was "nodding off" at the time and wrote this instead of "manutención de menores".

noun: a slip of paper included with your pay that records how much money you have earned and how much tax or insurance etc. has been taken out (From dictionary.com)
It seems then that you are referring to what I would call a “receipt.”
No big deal, we all stumble over our regionalisms, its part of the “spice” that makes our work so awesome! (Tomato/Tomahtoe)
If this is truly a “receipt” then perhaps it is some kind of fee to cover some kind of “maintenance,” like to defray the cost of mopping up spillage, I suppose?
Anyway, if I post a second suggestion I might get the KudoZ police on my trail, so I’m just going to wait and see what happens.
