Pictures of school lunches spark social media outrage
patman30 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
why do you assume i am broke? when i say nextdoor i mean they are on land adjacent to mine. do you have the perception that those who have money must be in the city, in debt, but have the latest iphone? ???? -
Pictures of school lunches spark social media outrage
patman30 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News

sort them all by height then build shelves that sit on the books so no gaps, stacked up to the ceiling obviously you then need panels for the window pic below was just after the first wall was done i do have a video clip somewhere i may post later that shows the entire room when it was finished i used construction plywood for the shelves and then made a nice table from all the off cuts

TLDRA never had an issue here finding places to stay when we travelled with our dogs ALL Ibis allow pets (Not "Ibis style"), they have a weight restriction and its 1 pet per person staying sorry to hear you find it so difficult when so many places now allow pets. -

pet friendly thailand has 886 places listed Ibis hotels allow pets and have hotels in main toutist destinations Booking.com has a pets allowed filter shows nearly 2000 places however they state "Based on your filters, 91% of places to stay are unavailable on our site." so it seems you can find and reserve them but just not pay for most of them via booking.com afaics -

Thai Couple Shocked At Losing Camera Gear While Holidaying In Swiss Town
patman30 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
So they travel with a GoPro, a DJi Drone an osmo mobile and a camera only the camera is "lost" (cough cough) "what the couple regrets the most is not having any photos to share with their followers." why take so many expensive toys and only play with the one? -

@bignok is correct The OP made an small error in their statement This statement is false. "cost" is the cost to produce. i understand the argument above both right sort of due to OPs little error what the OP should have written is: i generally sell meals at 33.3% cost. So if it costs 50 baht to make, I sell it at 150. or i generally sell meals at triple the cost. So if it costs 50 baht to make, I sell it at 150. or i generally sell meals at 200% profit (gross). So if it costs 50 baht to make, I sell it at 150. you generally use the sale price as 100%, and work out the cost percentage from that not the other way around selling at 200% cost, sounds like making for 2 and selling for 1

lol thanks saves me correcting them but i will give my thoughts on this every resturant i have worked in went on 25% food costs (UK, Fr, Es) obviously here this is a bit different, and (dumb) competition drives the profit margin too low and as you state drives them out of business rent and running costs can be cheaper too so 1/3 would probably be fine here typical biz model for many places in EU is 25% food costs 25% labour costs 25% rent, disposables, whatever else 25% profit That is basically what they aim for obviously you can make more or less on certain dishes but desired average is 25% i used to run kitchens, and have thought about opening something here for nearly 2 decades but the (dumb) competition just puts me off opening anything modest it is why we see so many open then close.
