  1. Harris. Trump is a career criminal, that is not a legitimate job.
  2. SWIFT can route the money any way they like but you have no say in it.
  3. So we will leave you out of the Brexit conversation.
  4. He was smart not to get in the car. They would have whisked him of to the Greenbriar and left him incommunicado while declaring the vote confirmation abandoned and void.
  5. I would vote for the one that is not a sexual predator, thief and traitor.
  6. Better than sexual predator, thief and traitor. Harris is going to DC and Trump is going to Riker's Island. BTW it is Trump hiding in New Jersey playing golf lately. He has a few meeting coming due and he is crapping his diapers.
  7. SWIFT might route funds that way but you cannot have dual accounts in NY and BKK. Nor are the two banks linked other than by name.
  8. Trump violated his oath of office by inciting an insurrection. He is a traitor.
  9. But they are not running for high office, and they tend not to be assaultive felons.
  10. You cannot use Bangkok Bank New York. It is a commercial only bank and is US chartered. Transferring money from there would be the same as Citibank. Tell SSA your new routing information and they will make the change.
  11. And all paid into his private businesses, Stealing government money while he plays a game. There are courses in D.C. and at camp David that would have allowed him to get some work done, so maybe we are better off after all.
  12. It is almost over. Kamala will be moving into the White House and Trump will be heading to prison. Ignore the Russian Trolls and vote blue.
  13. I get it but where do you draw the line? Drug dealers? Rapists? Traffic infractions?
  14. Reagan was just attempted murder. Don't agree with that one. Kennedy, still too many unknowns. A few others, I would agree. In general, I think prison is a more severe punishment.
  15. And a big bankroll laundering Russian Mob money.
  16. Except I was not responding to the OP in that post.
  17. It is a team effort, The staff has a job to do in taking and delivering orders. We need to be clear on what we want and give them time to do it without interrupting them. Nobody is deliberately trying to sabotage your meal, on your first visit.
  18. OK: it is your fault. We are always welcomed. We are clear in our orders, fair with the staff, and pay our tabs, maybe with a little extra. We rarely have serious service issues and when we do, we work it out politely and give them time to fix it.
  19. And let her handle it. She knows what is going on.
  20. Thai restaurant service runs a little differently from what we are used to and it runs in Thai. I tend to start from the viewpoint that I am the foreigner and I am responsible for facilitating the event. It is not that hard once you realize that they want you to get your lunch and pay up just as much as you do.
  21. OK, I will do it your way. 1. Arrive at the restaurant and are either ignored or ordered to sit down. Thai restaurants do not tend to have hostesses. If there is an open table and no line, sit down where you like. 2. Presented a menu and expected to “MAKE UP YOUR MIND RIGHT NOW AND ORDER IMMEDIATELY OH MY BUDDHA WHY ARE YOU TAKING SO LONG.” Order some drinks and they will set up the service stand while you are reading. 3. Staff run off as soon as you order one thing. So you have to get up and chase after them to them the rest of your order. (in the case of western food) Never happens, no idea what you are talking about. 4. Staff deliver your food requiring that you acknowledge them and interrupting your conversation to do so but then run away like the devil himself is chasing them. They have a job to do, shut up and let them do it. While you are at it, get you phone off the table and put the laptop away. 5. Staff disappear or engage in a very noisy conversation with the fellow staff and never check on anything. If you want something, just call them over. 6. You could wait all day for them to bring your bill but they never will. You have to stand up like you are going to leave. just call them over and say Check Bin, Mai Khup. They will be happy to take your money. I know someone will say “oh no Thailand is not like that at all.” sorry. i don’t believe you. OK: Oh no, Thailand is not like that at all. Sorry, I don’t believe you. (I fixed the grammar for you) someone will say “oh they’re not professional staff in Thailand they’re just helping out.” really? more like they don’t care are you are making excuses for them. No, they are professional staff that recognize self-entitled customers. I hope I have helped you.
  22. Maybe it's you? We are always welcomed with smiles and prompt service.
  23. Have to worry more about deforestation of Chinese bamboo forests.
  24. You only need to flush once if you stop putting stolen documents in the toilet.
