  1. No, obvious that you really don’t care, particularly about people less fortunate than yourself.
  2. Yeah you’d have to be filthy rich to leave more than 12 baht tip.
  3. That’s pretty obvious.
  4. I’ve lost count of the times I’ve regretted leaving a tip. I don’t want anyone to grovel, that’s not why I tip, but to feel like you’ve done something wrong is not on!
  5. Am I supposed to be sympathetic ? Am I supposed to understand why you’re stingy? Am I supposed to care?
  6. A blanket Europeans don’t tip is utter nonsense on a continent of 500 million people.
  7. Would it kill you to give 80 baht? Just because you haven’t seen a Thai person give a tip doesn’t mean some don’t. Just another attempt at justifying stinginess IMO
  8. Weird because I see Thais tipping regularly
  9. Whether it’s the norm or not is irrelevant, it’s absolutely right to tip for good service and it will always be appreciated. Those who are so vehemently against tipping are just too stingy.
  10. What difference does that make to you?
  11. Because it would make decent person feel good to show appreciation for someone doing a not very well paid job.
  12. It definitely is dependent on the type of place
  13. It’s not about being preoccupied, it’s about doing the decent thing and helping people who are most likely not as well off as you.
  14. Nope, it’s just Emirates being Emirates. I was loyal to them for 10 years, but it’s a one way loyalty and having watched the standard of service drop through the floor my loyalty is gone.
  15. Oh you got me. I really want to be just like you
  16. When you reach the bottom of the barrel scrape a bit more…and there you’ll find Bob, rejected by “real” Thai girls. Even I feel soiled by this post.
  17. Well that’s a minute of my life I’ll never get back.
  18. He’s miserable now. Why should I be made to feel the same?
  19. He’s just too much of a threat to the old guard's grip on power and money. They’re not about to give that up.
  20. But most of the anti Indian “jokes” are still here.
  21. In a forum populated by a majority of old immigrants who think they’re expats, this form of racism is par for the course.
  22. I see what you mean by expensive!
  23. Could you define “ a bit expensive “ please”! I’m often in Hua Hin so if you have a recommendation for someone there I’d appreciate it too. edit, just noticed that you said you haven’t used anyone in HH
