  1. Makes sense. Everyone is looking after their own interests. The morality of being top dog no longer stands for much.
  2. I'm waiting for those who brag about flying business class all the time to explain these numbers. As a cattle class passenger, I don't get it.
  3. I think the current interest rates on mortgages are hurting a lot of people. It's ridiculous how much of the payments are interest.
  4. We get it. You used to play volleyball at a decent level. I get the feeling that you are a good guy, but you're rubbing people up the wrong way, especially when asking for advice. Hence my concern about you working with children. Regarding your initial question, I have no idea, but if you can help the students, I honestly wish you well. As Impulse said, people do volunteer for altruistic reasons, which I'm all for.
  5. Did you have a work permit for the work you mention there? If your gonna get all touchy with posters who have valid concerns and even one who defended you then I'd also not want you working with children in a sporting atmosphere.
  6. I seem to be the odd one out as I see many Thai English teachers now who can speak good English. They can't write it very well, but in the other three skills I've seen a lot of improvement over the years.
  7. The fact I can see what is going on in front of my eyes is why I'm so surprised by your acceptance of a two tier justice system. Sure some foreigners are causing problems, but the majority of laws broken are by the host population who know the law a lot better than tourists do.
  8. I think you need to up your meds if you think that relating to the laws of a country.
  9. Ive had one for about 15 years and want another two. The only reason I've not got them is the price. Based on the cost of living here, they should really only be about 10k each. That's a pretty good amount for one day if you ask me, but I'm not paying 3k per hour.
  10. My understanding was that before midnight, the customers buy the alcohol that they want for the remaining few hours Technically they are not selling after 12 this way. Usually the promotions help with this when you buy 3 beers for 200 baht or something like that.
  11. It would be nice if they put up some signs. There are none. For the last 4 weeks at around 8:30 am I've driven 60, based on what I'd read here. I've never heard motorists use their horns there apart from the tuk tuk pip pips, which are not really an issue IMO.
  12. She really did herself no favours. I used to get told quite often to not honk my horn at others here. I only do it now when some tool is not moving at a traffic light as they are looking at their phone. She's Thai, she should know.
  13. I remember a thread a few years ago on road safety that worked exactly like this one. The enlightened OP went in length to say his piece and attacked anyone else who responded as being uneducated. I don't see the point in opening a thread if one is unwilling to hear others viewpoints.
  14. He didn't exactly stay silent then did he. He could have easily taken the higher ground but chose to aggravate the drunkards further.
  15. The raw beef (like soiju) near me is fantastic and it's less than 200 baht. That with some beer woon, I'm in heaven!
