How can the authorities cut water water off totally, so how are toilets flushed? This is a danger for health reasons not only for the family concerned, but also the neighbourhood.

Yes, they did steal, but clean water is essential to life and health.

 

 

So why fo we have to pay for drinking water?

Isn't it a god given birth right?

The "pun" was intended.

Hmmm 'a poem sung' to the toilet vs 'water' from the toilet... I still think water from the toilet is a tad funnier when taken literally.

Yes your correct, pull their finger nails out before administrating lethal injection that is missing a key ingredient ensuring a slow and agonizing death while forced to watch re-runs of little house on the prairie.

Seems like you have never been robbed or stolen from before. If you had, you'd understand that no matter how big or small the feeling of being stolen from is the same. No pity here and the culprit seems pretty damn fat for someone who is penniless. Maybe some day your turn will come and then you will understand.

A smart Thai in power would ask for help from the ex-pat community to get qualified English speakers into schools...just for one year till the Wuhan China virus silliness is over. Immigration and Educators work together to smooth the way.  There would be enough Aussie's and British ex-pats out there in the community.  No sense in bringing in Flippers who speak American English, all those lovely kiddies need to learn the Queens English so they can get ahead in life.  

Geez talk about a British redneck hick. You are so ahead in life that you have to post here rather than in some British expat post or newspaper... wanna bee buzzzzzzzz

Never work for a Chinese company. Mine is a US company and I am never 'on call'. Also, I would never teach kids. 

and what is your company? If it is any good might want to sign up... or is that a secret?

Also considering online teaching options. Native English speaker no previous experience. Any advise appreciated.

Most Chinese online courses you need a tefl and according to Chinese law you can't be hired of you don't have one... you should check your spelling if you are a native speaker... there is a difference between advise and advice... and in this case I don't think you made a typo

They expect kids who can't even do a slither of homework to man up and take responsibility and note down where they are going?

REALLY?

No! 99% of Thais should take driving licence away and put them back in driving school! That kind school what actualy teatch to drive! In Finland we drive atleast 10 houer in traffic whit driving teatcher. In Thailand you drive back in office parkin lot few turns and brake once! And park in screen! Last year Finland had 211 casualty's in traffic! Less than Thailand sometimes in one day (sogran). Ok here have more traffic but anyway!

Don't you Fins get timberjack licenses issued after you drive around in a forest for 10 hours?

I doubt the traffic in Finland compares to that of Thailand. Last I heard you only had 1 traffic light on the mainstreet of Helsinki...????

Guess that most of us have Facebook accounts, so we all must share that Thailand is now deeply racist, and that any tourist who comes here is wasting his time and money.

Why not get some of the supposed anti-racists from the BLM movement to come and protest here?

Funny how racism is only decried in the west yet other places in the world like the middle east and here in Thailand it is the norm.

There truly never will be an equilibrium in this world.

Don't know if you are joking, but your comment is in very poor taste.

It's not HILARIOUS.  Surely, you do not have children.

Hilarious because every nature show and expert says not to suck the venom for risk of dying yourself. So yeah... hilariously stupid of them... no matter if you have children or not. Mom and dad would have joined in the heavens soon after the little girl...

I give up... enjoy your wild goose chase. Only been living here and working here 18 years so what do I know, right?

For some countries (such as the US), you can only do an affidavit, since the embassy/consulate will not authenticate documents for some reason.

why bother... if the TCT approves your waiver you are set... where did you come up with this stuff?

I'm in the process of finding a good school

Good luck. With no experience how will you know what is a good school in Thailand?

You really have no clue so find a job first and let the school tell you what you need. Other than that you are wasting your time and spending money and energy for nothing.

1. I will be doing an affidavit for my diploma and transcript.

18 years here never had to do this... where did you come up with this one?

Certified copy of passport? Really?

I am glad I have been here long enough not to be looking for advice from your post dude...

Copy of TEFL?

Why isn't your school taking care of this? You seem like a newbie who doesn't even have a contract yet. Step 1... get a contract...

According to a Washington Post analysis updated on Monday, half of the people shot and killed by U.S. police are white, but Black Americans are shot at a disproportionate rate. They account for less than 13 percent of the U.S. population but are killed by police at more than twice the rate of white Americans, the newspaper analysis found.

what is this waffle.... ?

Thin end of the wedge, unfortunately; Thailand has targeted the total elimination of the virus at the expense of almost everything else. Consequences such as these will increasingly be the norm.

and the rest of the free world will die because of the almighty dollar....

good job by the police.  jail & deport. drug user/seller/pusher.

Ya think they should do the same thing to all Canadians who light up?

Pot ain't the end of the world, nor should it be treated as. I quit the thing 20 years ago and for me it is live and let live.

Mine was refused in Rayong. They wanted to see proof of deposits (marriage visa) which when we had gone in to ask about all documents a month earlier they did not even mention.
