It is not about respect IMHO. But you raised a good point. This seems to boil down to a capitalist, verses a socialist system, if I may. The fat happy rich person who spreads their earnings to those who don't have the same education and (maybe) desire to build upon their life because they can make easy cool cash scrubbing toilets. Or, the system where people's desperation pushes them to better themselves and become that same fat happy rich guy. I say this because I was the poor desperate guy that nobody helped, and I cleaned toilets, and scrubbed floors until I could pay for my school. And no one tipped me, which kept me focused to get out of that job.

Millions of homeless people make more money than us working sods. Simple search Youtube John Stossel reports.

Can you produce evidence it has not? I know this response, and the opposition can use it accordingly. ???? I think if you look at the American system, there is clear evidence what will happen to Thailand. Again, follow the local culture and tip as they do. Usually small change from the bill, depending on the bill. Hotels, never.

I have tried that in some countries, and a local friend hit me and said I just insulted them. Learn local cultures and follow accordingly. In America now, expectation is 18%-20% tip. Companies learned they don't need to pay higher salaries, tipsters are the future. I prefer Thailand never become what is happening over in the U.S. As for my "well to do" status, I spent 10 years cleaning toilets for a living in my 20's. No one tipped me.

No. This is not America. This is Thailand. Stop the cultural infestation nonsense. I watch the Thais and tip when they tip and how they tip. I was in a hotel in Malaysia a few weeks ago when the cleaning staff saw me go to my room. He knocked on my door just to say hello and ask me where I was from. He said he loves it when Americans stay because they leave him big tips. Then he stood there waiting for something. He got nothing.

None of the fungal creams ever worked for me except for ringworm. Nail fungus (amount other skin ailments) were only cured using 2 home remedies. For those dark places, Listerine Original (not the flavored), or rubbing alcohol. For nails, a soak in bleach for 3 minutes a day was amazing. Dilute with water if needed. It was VERY effective. I tried vinegar, it didn't work.

Agree with everything Sheryl and others above have said. What I like the most about Dr. Donna is that she will talk to you about your problem and discuss openly various treatments. She will let you make an informed decision. Try that with a Thai doctor and they give you a quiet stare.

Next to the police box at Suk soi 4, there is an internet shop. Go up the stairs, print whatever you want.

Get the English then have a translation service translate it into Thai. Keep both English and Thai on the Will, and you are good to go. A fraction the cost of a lawyer.

Sounds like telephone zombies around the BTS and MRT. Blindly bump into something(someone), and change direction.
