I know, that's why I suggested it. true colours and all that.

it serves a purpose. what's the name of your Bangkok/Pattaya/P4P -centric blog then mate?

agree with it, say what? simply pointing out that actions have consequences. don't poke the bear. in the US, where the bulk of those urban myths seem to arise, tips are what the service staff live on. that's the game. hate the game not the place. don't tip the standard 15% and they've effectively worked for nothing. maybe they won't make the rent or cant buy Chrissy presents for their kids. but you sound like you don't have much practical life experience so I CBF trying to explain any further. kthxbye ????

well if you're silly enough to not leave a tip when it's expected/mandatory eg. USA then you deserve everything you get.

you've canvassed every lawyer in Pattaya and Bangkok then have you?

"Qanon for Asia"? nah mate, it's not that good! ????

i recommend you subscribe to the FullFeed channel on Telegram and read as many of the articles as you can. it's a crypto news aggregator so it has links to many different sites and should give you a more informed viewpoint than what passes for such at NYT, WAPO and the like. it does require a bit of effort of course, there's approx. 100 links per day.

that's what they charge brother and there ain't a damn thing you can do about it so dance farang, dance.

I used to live in that crime-infested cesspit until I got lucky and was able to retire early to Thailand. I'm from the C*nterbury-Bankstown area so know this stuff only too well. one of the latest Alameddine on Hamzy executions happened a couple of streets away from where my dear old mum lives. the only upside to that place is 1) the manoush and charcoal chicken is to die for and 2) the habibs seem to be fairly good at keeping civilians out of it unless you go poking your nose in. oh yeah, and we never worried about locking our doors at night because nobody is going to come to East Bankstown and <deleted> with the habibs.

General Manager needs new Pirellis for his M3?

I've been doing this for some time with wait staff that I really like but I've recently had it confirmed by a Bangkok BG that it's a "thing". she told me her friend was really peeved one night because one of her regulars gave her an 800 baht tip but he put it in the "box" instead of her hand. once it goes in the "box" supposedly no-one can touch it except the cashier. box meaning the little tray they bring your bill/change on.

it's great mate, come on down to Patpong 2 and don't forget your big bag of THB.

you can save loadsamoney ????

ah yes, Capitalism is Good, All Hail Capitalism! slavery and blackbirding was "just business" too.

so in other words, you don't know!

ah the almighty corruption indices where the West is the Best and everyone else is suspect. thanks for putting me back on The Right Path, I'd lost my way for a bit there /s

nice work player! ????

"supposed" to be... wherever did you get that notion? I was under no such illusions before I first came here. I guess the backpackers I spoke to in Sydney before I left set me on the right track. then when I got here my first destination was Koh Samui which it a snakepit if there ever was one.

yes, she'll have to cough up because that's how it works here and there's nowt you or she can do about it. pay or they confiscate, simples.

because that's how it works around here man. simples.

"civilized society", are you serious bro? this is a "Big Boss" society, always has been, always will be.

go elsewhere? what, like the UK or Europe or USA where the prices are through the roof because of all the rich people skimming off the top and not paying taxes? oh I should add Australia to that list. ATO hounds poor people to pay their tax debts but lets Google et al get away with paying zero tax. or even giving tax refunds to some corporations. if that's not corruption I don't know what is. Thailand is a minnow compared to the scam that the Western countries have been pulling on their citizens for centuries.

websites don't host themselves bro
