Even I have been absent without real reason fake notes and such. Did went on to study and ended up quite ok. I would not say that this is a major problem. It will be if the student is a problem student and messes it up. But skipping school sometimes is not a predictor to failure. 

No, it´s a predictor of early entitlement and disrespect. Sure, sometimes it can turn out good or bad in the end. Still nothing to use as an excuse for it to go on.

Ok, thanks! Looks like this is going to be a dry day.

Ah..."the old absent tee not"

 

I remember how difficult it was back in my day to try and sign my mums signature when I would forge a sick note, then one day the school noticed the differences in the signatures and sent my mum a few letters to contact the school as they couldn't reach her by landline, i.e. no mobiles.

 

She never received those letters as one of my tasks was to bring in the mail from the mailbox when I finished school.

 

Then I was called to the admin office one day, straight out of class, and was asked where my parents were, and I said is dad overseas (1974) at the moment, and mum sleeps during the day because she works nights as a nurse, they said the phone was always engaged, and I said, yeh mum sleeps during the day and takes the phone off the hook so she is not disturbed during her sleep.

 

Ok, so that is why the school has had difficulty contacting them, does your mum read English I was asked, yes was my reply, because we have sent her some letters and she hasn't contacted us, so you make sure you give her this sealed letter, oh, yeh sure, is everything ok, yes yes, just make sure you give it to your mum when you go home, ok.

 

I knew what it was about because I got rid of the other letters, but this was going to be tricky, anyway, next day I through another sickie, unbeknown to me, mum was supposed to pick up dad from the airport at 1pm, while me and my brothers were at school, but guess what, on that day, me being 16 and unlicensed, had taken mums car keys from under her pillow while she was asleep and took her car for a drive, a usual occurrence, but this time I got lost and when I rocked up at home at 4pm in the afternoon after I found my way home, dad, mum my brothers were all sitting at the front of the house waiting for me, the admin office went around at around 12pm and knocked on the door and asked mum where I was, when she went to get the car and noticed the keys missing from under her pillow, she knew.

 

I still recall the feeling of me dying inside when I saw them all sitting there. 

 

Fortunately for me I didn't get a walloping, although I was grounded for like a month, naturally I wouldn't take the car anymore and mum purchased a crook lock just in case, and I really feared my dad, he had a really loud voice, just ask my kids...lol, but was all bark, as I am.

 

As for school, well, it sucked, left at end of year 10 and believe it or not ended up doing two degrees as a mature entry student years later, yep, some of us are thicker than others when young, that said, I came good having a good career with 6 figure salary and investments made at the right time (real estate) which helped me to retire here at 55, what a ride, all starting with forged school notes....lol ????

 

Ok, I know it took you a while to come up with this story. Just one question. Is this your way of saying, it´s ok to fake your sick notes?

if i posted a link to the story about how low Thai students scored compared with other countries and then posted this story on that stories comments would it create a giant feed back loop that would crash the internet? 

Also be very careful, my friend. You do not want to fight that defamation lawsuit.

Just how do you overdose a cigarette with tobacco?

Just for you, pal. You put far to much tobacco in the banana leaf compared to what would be in a normal cigarette, and then you still smoke same many as a person smoking regular cigarettes.

Something else you need clarified? Do not hesitate to ask my friend. ????

Just wanted to know if it´s still dead? If yes, I will open another beer.

well i looked at a snitzel visa a couple years back when i was considering portugal or hopping around europe for more then a month per location and is was very complicated. they wanted all kinds of <deleted>.

Yes, It´s very complicated. The only thing you need is a Schengen visa and you can move around as you wish in Europe(EU). Sound very hard, right?

Depends who you ask, Khun Daeng has his interpretation of the rules while old Somchai see's them completely different and if you drive a Benz, well...…...……...………!

Sounds like different immigration offices. Just me catching the resemblance?

But see! Another foreigner tarnishing on the already deeply hurt reputation we get by all dorks that are still left in this beautiful country.

Starting to be an everyday thing in the news nowadays. Hope everybody posting here still sees it like no big deal.

What´s important here? That there is rocks in the water, or that a captain of a cruise liner drive over them?

Yes, you can. The demanded amount for getting PR by investment is 10 million baht. After that the investment must have been a minimum of 3 years in the country to be able to be granted a permanent receidency based on investment.

I certainly do and quite a lot of them need far more air than the ones above, though you may not know so much about spray guns, compressors and the pressures they need as the CAT gun above is happy at a little under 2 bar and the majority of compressors are set to about 6 bar 
 

It was you that brought up the subject of spray guns.

 

Go back and read. You started the talk about spray guns, not me. My first post about them was regarding the OP, not anything you had to care about. Yes, I know about spray guns. As working in construction for many years, I do know it on the professional level. We always use 10 bar compressors for the best result. We can nalso control the preassure directly from the compressor. But ok, not so easy to know for a some times wood worker. No problem, I understand.

They may be able to run a nail gun but as far as spraying they could only run an air brush or the smallest of spray guns, they have no chance of running something like these 

 

possibly this would be OK

and this is very likely to be no problem 

 

Did you read the OP´s use of it? When did I tell you can use a spray gun that is made for beeing driven together with a compressor around 8-10 bar to get the perfect result?

However, I said that there is a wide variety of rools that can be used. You know, there is more than just spray guns and nail guns to be driven by air, right?

You must of lived a very sheltered life and I think you have not been here very long, but I don’t need to explain myself to you

Almost 23 years. What about you? And what do you mean with that I lived a sheltered life? Yes, I think you must explain, or you can butt out of replying.

Are you serious ??? That's not that they worth more, but just that the cost of living is higher in these provinces.

Yes, I am serious! Of course it looks like their work are worth more in different provices.

If you choose to live in a province where things are expensive, then you must find a work suitable for that.

If you work in London in Mega Store as a cashier, or if you choose to live in Brighton and have the same work as a cashier. Is there a lower minimum salury in Brighton? No, it´s is not. That´s because the saluries are controlled through unions and business organisations and agreed upon to fit the whole country. That means that people doing the same work gets the same salury.

The best thing of all is that a person sitting in Phuket or Chonburi is worth more than people doing the exact same work in Narathiwat or Pattani.

That´s outright sick!

You can´t open an account in any country, without having an address you can use in the same country.

Packaging will be provided to ship it on arrival (EMS to a friend's work address in Pathum Thani). And of course fully paid in advance.

That sounds more dangerous than sending it to Thailand.

Yes, I understand your post perfectly. And that is that you do not care about the everyday loss of your foreign reputation caused by mad and wierd people.
