  1. Well it either is or it isn't . If you think something, you may be wrong . Is his theory respected by most people in the field of psychology or not ?
  2. I read that and I thought that he was an idiot , like a hippy smoking weed and speaking nonsense . You cannot subconsciously do things , you either mean to do them or you don't mean to do them . He speaks like he was off his nut on chemicals
  3. The concrete stairs in the photo are not actually the new escalators, I think that was a joke . Escalators are being replaced by a safer modern version escalator, but its not the stairs in the photo
  4. Maybe thats what he done and the 7/11 gave him some bin bags as a replacement and he took those back as well ?
  5. They will only behave that way because you are a felang and they wouldn't do it if you were Thai *sarcasm*
  6. I go to Thailand because I like it the way it is , I don't go to Thailand to try and make it the same as my own Country
  7. It wasn't , those were installed in Austria in the 1980's
  8. The recent accidents have been because many people now carry luggage that have wheels on the bottom of the luggage and these wheels get stuck in the escalator and causes accidents The new escalators are designed to the wheel doesn't get stuck , so, nothing to do with maintenance
  9. What is the maintenance record of those escalators ? How often do the manufactures recommend maintenance and how often is maintenance carried out ? Do your claims have any basis in facts ?
  10. Did you read the text ? The new escalators are safer , nothing to do with any maintenance issues . There has been some accidents recently with escalators and they have changed the design to make them safer
  11. I don't go to Thailand to try to change things or change the Thai way of doing things . In another thread there are Westerners complaining about foreigners going to their Country and not doing things their way and acting like they do back at their home Country
  12. They are normal concrete stairs , its not an escalator
  13. I haven't changed my stance at all and I don't do that regularly, you are making that up . As for your question , it was very easy for under 50's to stay long term in Thailand without working or being married , I did that for ten years , although its gotton a bit more difficult recently . Thais cannot just fly to the UK without a visa , like Brits can just fly to Thailand without a visa
  14. Are you a serial "I want to speak to the manager" complainer ? I find it really unpleasant when a customer behaves like that "Im going to speak to your manager, make a complaint, you're going to lose you job" "I'm videoing this" blah blah blah Westerners should leave that kind of attitude back home and not bring it to Thailand
  15. You stated that I have a life time habit of moving the goalposts when talking . That is rude, untrue and argumentative . I didn't even move the goalpost at all . Its easier for retired people to retire and live in Thailand and its easier for non retired people to stay for a long time in Thailand "Live" was in reference to retired people "Stay for a while:" was in refence to non retired people and I was answering your question . You are rude and impolite
  16. No need to be unpleasant , as I don't want to speak in that kind of tone, I shall not reply to your point . I dont need an argument on a Sunday morning, thanks all the same
  17. Its much easier on all levels for Westerners to go to Thailand, than it is for Thais to go to the West . Thai retirees cannot get retirement visas in the West and younger Thais cannot just fly to the West and stay for a while , like we can go to Thailand
  18. What sentences do you need to say to 7/11 staff ? Why do you need to speak to them at all ?
  19. What ? They talk English but they cannot understand what they are saying ? Thats a strange situation
  20. If Thais can speak English, they usually get jobs other than being 7/11 staff . Also some staff that can speak a bit of English are too embarrassed to speak in in front of the other staff , just incase the guy asks her out for a drink after work
  21. Are you saying that the USA and Thailand have different rules and laws ?
  22. Where the batteries by the till ? Where the batteries next to the condoms in front and to the left hand side of the till, near the door way entrance ?
  23. What questions do you need to ask 7/11 staff ?
  24. My point was that Western guys can go and live in Thailand quite easily , but Thai men cannot easily go and live in Western Countries
