Put out the Quantum at 6:30 p.m., checked at 9:30. Only a few bewildered soldiers wandering about. This morning, all gone. This stuff is magic!

OH MY BUDDHA!!! I bought a tube, laid out a small line, and within an hour every ant and their friends within two blocks are munching down. I'll keep y'all posted on the progress.
P.S. Picked it up at Big C Pattaya Klang, 188 baht.

Not illegal as long as the teacher has a work permit already. Tax etc is another issue but easily worked out.
In Phuket there are teaching agencies or you could just reach out to a facebook group for international teachers?
If a teacher has a work permit then he or she is working and wouldn't have time. When a teacher leaves a school their work permit is instantly void.

I have to point out what you are asking is illegal.

This so called government have made numerous promises over the last six years, but nothing ever materializes, except more hot air.
So does he expect anybody to believe him this time.
I'm STILL waiting for those damned soap operas!

You fail to realize these are a bunch of desperate, lonely guys all around the planet. What you and I would barely consider a 2 or 3 are angels in these guys' eyes.

2 minutes ago, Thomas J said:Greed now what exactly is greed. When someone starts a business and they want to make a profit that is greed. But of course when you want government to tax the money away from those profitable corporations, somehow taking money that others made to use as you see fit is "not greedy" Alternatively, if that business owner wants to maximize his/her profits in the business "that is greedy" But you wanting them to sell you their products and services for less so you pay less "is not greedy"
Capitalism works on "self interest" you call it greed. People, companies always work towards what is in their "best" self interest. If a company makes great profits it is because they are providing something that the public finds value in. If they charge too much, others will come in to compete and the profits will go down. Now if they are more efficient that is they can sell the same products/services but their costs are less than their competitors they will make more profit. That is because they are more efficient than their competitors. That is a good thing not a bad thing.
Companies will and should try to maximize their profits, consumers should always operate in their self interest and try to get the most product/service for the least amount of money. Those competing forces is what drives competition and efficiency. If I have a business and it is extremely profitable, I want to expand it. If my profits are meager, I have no such interest in taking even more risk. The expansion of business means a growing economy more jobs and guess what more taxes. A barely profitable company pays little and very profitable company pays a lot.No. I said insane greed. In the 1960's and 1970's, the US economy was the greatest ever seen on the planet. Then corporate greed crept in, crippling the US economy and I don't think it will ever recover.
The history of the pay ratio between the workers and the executives.

It's only gotten worse over the last ten years.
American workers pay much more in taxes than do large corporations. Trying to defend corporations and their lobbyists who write tax laws that screw the rest of us is naïve at best. It can't continue this way.

Try starting a business, investing your money that you may lose, just for "public welfare" see how much zeal you have to make it thrive and prosper.Look how the Costco model in the US operates. The CEO makes a good, fair amount as do the employees. Costco offers college tuition assistance, a GREAT health care package, and their stock rises every single year. It CAN be done, just reign back on the insane corporate greed. It can be done.

On the face of it, this sounds like a pretty extreme over promise. What's the point of doing that? All I can think is to project the feeling that they are finally approaching vaccinations with the needed urgency.
Not to worry, Numbers will change by tomorrow.

Sorry for your son. Why was she at the bar?
The girls dance in front of a web cam scantily clothed, then broadcast on Facebook so the desperate dogs can comment, professing their undying love. There is a sign saying 150 baht per drink and a link to Paypal the money. Literally hundreds of guys are constantly viewing and a lot of them sending money for colored water (drinks). She was working there cuz she was making bank for dancing in front of a cam!

If you feel you are getting a fair return, what the heck. If not, smarten up.
Yes, there is money to be made. But I couldn't do it.
My son back in the states was one of those numb nuts sending money to a girl working Soi 6 cam scam. He thought they had a "connection" and had a personal joke they shared. I went to visit her and she had no idea who my son was or what I was referring to. I got him to stop sending her money. In his defense, she WAS cute. I tried to do a short time, she declined saying she was making WAY too much money with the cam scam and didn't need the wet work.

I knew a US Navy corpsman who, amongst other things, was tasked to perform the prostate finger wave. He would fill up a glove with sand, place it on the patient's right shoulder, place his left hand on the guy's left shoulder, then start the procedure. Just think about it.

Are all these absent owners paying their annual common fees? The late payers in my condo are always the ones who don't live there.
The place I live in, the builder wants to make it a short time hotel. Mind you, these are luxurious - 148 sq meters, incredible view. He paid all the common fees of those in arrears with the caveat he gets to vote for them by proxy. He now has the votes and I'm in the middle of moving out at this very moment.

Wow! How do they make a fortune online? I want to tell some girls.
Which idiot would pay for a girl, telling some porkpies via video call.
I watched a view of the livestreams. They're quite boring if you've actually been to a Soi 6 bar, but there were HUNDREDS of guys from around the world buying the girls "drinks" - colored water at 150 baht/drink. The money was pouring in.

Not arguing with anything just interested in the detail.
Do you understand the word schadenfreude.?

I look forward to next month and you being able to give us the details of at least some of the projects that are being shut down. Unless of course you are able to do so now. Nowt like a bit of schadenfreude in the mornings and closing all jobs sounds pretty drastic.
You argue with facts? Again, Spidermike007 doesn't tell tales of fancy. And all you have to do is look outside to see the tumbleweeds rolling down the streets.
Nobody is happy about things, and this is worldwide.

Thailand Says Its Tourism Sector May Not Recover Until 2026
in Thailand News
Posted
If leaders got a cranial assendectomy and performed like OTHER countries that are now curbing down (can you say vaccine for all?) then tourism could get back MUCH sooner.
