All of what you have said is entirely secondary to the topic of wrongful dismissal in Thailand. If the example i did not edit out of your post happened in Thailand, you would have moved on with a decent payout. As a personal example prime example out of this. I worked for years for a company at a very decent salary. That company was bought by a US multinational. They laid plans to outsourced my job 2 years after taking over. Because they had no grounds to let me go, they asked me to resign. I refused. Not because I wanted to stay, but because I knew they would have to settle. They did and I also "moved on" with the equivalent of a few years salary in my pocket. After that I actually ended up working with them as an independent contractor doing far less for more money for another 2 years. I have never worked for another company since, though i still work with many companies on my own terms, but that is not the point. The point is you have excellent recourse against wrongful dismissal in Thailand if you understand your rights.

Blah blah. I know pointless discussion when i see one. Y'all have a nice day listening to the Victrola.

I transfer earning weekly using Wise, its been flawless for me for years, but faster in the the last 6 months.

why would i even bother to engage in such a curmudgeonly circular discussion? We both know already you wouldn't accept any answers i gave you. The fact that you would even ask the question is proof of my point. I could, however, ask what do Bowie, Pink Floyd or the Rolling Stones have against Mozart, Beethhoven or Vivaldi?

It would seem you have no idea how employment actually works in Thailand. Once someone makes it past the three month probation period here, it is very difficult to let them go. The thai labour dept is very much on the side of the employee, knowing your rights can be very profitable indeed.

its not about continuing to work for a company, its about taking them to the cleaners for wrongful dismissal. I have several friends that have walked away from being let go with a year or more salary in the bank. A number of years ago in Thailand I was was let go from a software multinational with 3 years salary as severance because they had no legitimate reason to let me go, so a significant severance package was their only option.

What utter <deleted>

Every old fart ever has complained that music is dead or dying. Yet somehow it persists. This thread is little more than a tired cliche.

perhaps bankruptcy wasn't entirely inconvenient....

Perhaps you didn't recognize the irony, but that would just make you more of a fool than i already suspect you are. Taken at face value, that is a bold assumption from someone who hasn't attended any of the events I have promoted, spent an afternoon digging through my music collection (vinyl, CD or digital) or been by my side at any of the gigs I have attended in the last 30 years. I listen to anything I can, even more so since the advent of streaming and the purchase of a quality dac to round out my ever evolving sound system. Have you seen Nirvana, Nina Simone, or Tom Waits live? Not your thing? Then how about The Grateful Dead, Rush, The Who, the Stones or the Kinks, Bowie, Neil Young (admittedly i was in my teens for those) ? Something more modern perhaps? Pixies, Ween, Pavement, Swerverdriver, Delite, Soul II Soul? Hip hop? I went to an Asap Rocky show when I was last in the states, and I'm pretty fond of Belly. Prefer electronic (not EDM)? Then how about Orbital, Schpongle, DeepDish, Hot Since 82, Superflu, Carl Cox, Laurent Garnier, or Maceo Plex. I really couldn't even list 1/10th the bands and DJs I have seen and, in many cases, met over the years. Do please tell me what folk like you with "a knowledge of music" are listening to today? Perhaps Black Pink and that asshat David Guetta speak more to your discerning palette?

Indeed, because "rocking" is the exclusive domain of people over 70.

which is wide open. Destination country does not mean home country.

odd, they don't actually mention they hit the target.

I'm sure glad he wasn't a non-criminal gangster. That would suck.

Option three says you could just have said nothing.

Bit late, read one post up.

Did it ever occur to you to just give them the cash and tell them the amount they need to return?

congratulations for living a very sheltered life.

two.

Not to mention an atk test or pcr on the way to report if the result was in question.

How would a lackey know what your insurance will and eill not pay?

This op is harldy potentially useful. In fact it pretty much calls another post announcing the extension in the visa section into queetion and fuels pointless speculation.

Again, totally beside the point.

Would you now? Seems to me you are just posting a contrarian view for the sake of posting. That kind of a trash collection comes with its own set of issues, especially in this climate.

My point exactly. Its hardly an apples to apples comparison as regards process and deposit.
