  2. gotta agree and i was a teacher..most thais are terrified to speak english..i went to AIS yest to gt my phone plan and they all jostled about to find the one willing to speak english to me..she even used her translate app lol..
  3. ive worked retail and recently....its soul crushing..7-11 emp do everything..cook your food,,pay bills..fix your sim..stock,,clean,,inventory etc,,,,now mix in ppl from all over coming in there..demanding a beer at 2pm etc i gotta give a hats off to those folks at 7-11 and i know they get paid sh*t to put up with all the drama...long hrs on feet
  4. i just copy thais...they like to joke and watch slapstick shows etc...so i just act like a clown with them and they seem amused things are tough here for some locals and maybe why community is key....worry less...smile and try and enjoy the ride..sanuk
  5. gotta say when im home for the other 6 mo.i stay in a tourist area during winter/low season and love the peace n quiet in a nice waterfront condo...and hate it as soon as the tourists creep back in..even the weekend warriors..i dont blame thais one bit as i feel the same way.....i do notice as well when im doing visa runs..folks are much friendlier...but i noticed also yest as i crept slowly around the old city on my bicycle that i got quite a lot of smiles as i like to test any thais staring at me with a smile
  6. went to city yesterday as usual to ride bike.. stopped at my mechanic--we joked and i chatted with his daughter while he did repairs.. walked to 7-11 to get a water...smiled at the somtam gals as i walked in--they smiled back got my waves from usual massage gals sitting outside cat calling me as i see them daily the little kids came out to say hello where i leave my mbike and lock up my bike for the night... joked and chatted up the couple that sells me fruit every night on my way home.... depends where u look i suppose.....or maybe its just me 🙂

  12. being a chef myself you are paying for an experience as if you cooked it at home its gonna be cheaper-hence street food cheaper than a cafe...labor costs-rent-staff-etc I dont pay for sex here as i achieve the same results with other means.....i dont need steak daily to be satiated....(wink) food is food anyone can learn to cook..esp in this digital age.....i rarely eat out as i know food cost and what goes on in most kitchens....30+ yrs.....

  14. yep i do this...cool shower b4 sleep and set at 27 with fan on low....i wake up to move temp to 30 as it gets chilly for me and i use a cotton sheet to cover......seems the 27' uses less amperage..than above 27 windows open during day with fan..just use ac when sleeping...
