  1. Do you guys think English teachers can make a career move once they get stuck in this path?

     

    I've been asked quite a few times by English teachers if I can help them get a "normal" job, but every time I politely turn them down. Saying that my company is not looking to hire new people. The truth is that I could help them if I wanted to, but the thought of hiring someone who is teaching English just doesn't appeal to me. Even if the candidate has past experience in some other field besides teaching.

     

    It becomes even worse for fresh-grads that have no working experience and take up a teaching job in Thailand. After a while they get comfortable with the salary / lifestyle and they completely ignore the fact that they're not building a career. At least not a career they graduated for. Many also refuse to start on entry-level jobs as they feel their degree entitles them to a certain position or salary.

     

    I am temped to bluntly tell the next English teacher who asks me for a job that we don't hire their kind, but that's too rude for my character. 

     

    Any thought and experience you can share? I'm trying to compile a standard speech for these people to get them motivated to start looking for themselves, without being a douchebag. 

  2. I have to be at an customs agent office to do some paperwork. They are located in the Suvarnabhumi Airport Freezone, not inside the airport terminal. it's building BC-1 to be exact.

    If I take the airport link, can I walk from the terminal building to the Airport Freezone? How do I get there?

    I hope I can walk because I'm affraid taxi's will refuse to take such a short ride and there are no motorcy taxi's.

    Thanks!

  3. Hi

    I have a similar question regarding multi entry visa.

    I have a work permit, but due to personal reasons i could not do a 90 day report. Normally I don't need to do because I travel a lot for my work so I am in an out of Thailand almost every 2 month.

    However, I was counting my days since last time I entered Thailand and it turns out that I actually had to report today. I have never done the 90 days report before so I wonder what are the consequences now?

    None, there is a grace period, so if you go on Friday or Monday you should be fine. Worse case is usually a 2,000 Baht fine.

    Thanks, I will get cracking on it right away.
