Oh yeah, they know the Thai owner would tell them to <deleted>-Off and get back to work.
People say, don't help Thais.
1) the won't appreciate it, and will take advantage of it.
2) they'll think you're soft and stupid, and have zero respect for you.
3) when you stop helping them, they will hate and resent you.
This guy nicely helped them.
Stopped helping them.
And was violently murdered for stopping helping them.
