I just got a great idea for a movie. "Meat Wagon". Watch rival ambulances services fight over turf while selling drugs on the side and chasing love interests with emergency room nurses. Maybe Tarentino can direct. If I can pitch it to Hollywood I will quit my day job.

Did you not watch the recent Bangkok Breaking Series?

How could that happen? 1000 Baht notes are the highest denomination notes. 

Whoops, It must have been 100 Baht :)

It struck me that people must be charged the wrong price many times with this new tap & pay method because you don't factor the price in as much as when you are physically handing over cash & counting your change.

My local street vendor no longer sells sweet mangoes…  so I hand picked some in Big C, weighed, swiped and checked the price. I was charged about 120 Baht per kilo instead of the 90 Baht displayed price!  The young lad checked the displayed price and issued a revised bill. 
 

I’m now wary of the ease it is to be incorrectly charged

i also make a habit of checking change. I once returned 1,000 Baht and never forget the look on the cashier’s face, priceless ????

The condo swimming pool closed yesterday and the office staff said that they are following Government recommendations.

I am most upset because I will miss the early morning swim especially when I have the pool to myself. I am also most surprised because swimming in a chlorine treated pool seems to be far more effective against virus transmission than washing hands or wearing a mask.

Does anyone know if there is an actual government ruling and if so I would be grateful for a link to the article.

@sensei Assume you are teaching in Thailand. What subject(s) and at what level? I may be able to recommend an existing solution to your problem.

The central bank has applied newest technology as a security feature for the Bt50 note to prevent counterfeiting which included the watermark which HM the King's portrait will be shown on the right side and a watermark of Thai numeral 50 is especially transparent.

Does that mean that the higher denomination notes do not have the "newest technology" and counterfeits are easier?

Sorry but "he worked as a graphic designer at the Sleep With Me apartment complex" has got my head spinning.

Maybe he worked here:
