They knew the exact amount it would fetch on the street...................normally it would need to be tested, weighed and then you could give an account of the value! They knew when, where and who it was supposed to go to. Chalerm is a piss of shit trying to cover his ass after the chinese new year scams!

What would happen to you if you left the agency to work full-time for the school? I think, not alot. If the school wishes to employ you on their own contract and you keep this quiet from the agency and do the switch you should be fine with getting your work permit and a full contractual visa.I have found that because there are so many EFL teachers in Thailand and so many agencies propping up all over the place. It becomes quite common for them not to sort out the work permit and whatnot. After all it costs the agency money and they constantly have teachers coming and going.
I think if you're looking to stay here long-term and want more stability, you should work directly for an education establishment rather than an agency. I personally HATE my agency and I have similar problems to you. They don't do what is stated in the contract and I'm pissed that they're deducting money from my monthly salary for what seems like... nothing. However I love the school I am at and I have built up quite a rapport with the students and get on well with other staff so I'm stuck in a predicament as I can't work directly for the school for 2 years after I've left the agency according to the contract I signed.
I feel your anger and frustration!

20 students, 100 baht per head per class. I would try 2,000 baht per class. They may try to play you down to a lower rate, that is up to you but 100 baht per person for an hours english class is well cheap. Plus if you do a really good job the word of mouth will open even more oppertunities for more classes. Good luck!
