  1. Luckily for you, I am a doctor and also play one online. I'm a brain and heart surgeon, but I know nothing about the hiring process. I have also designed rockets and submarines, but I don't want to flex too hard. You have come to the right place!!!!!

    Only go there if you absolutely must. I'd skip Ubon city, but the province has some nice parts. Ubon city is about as similar to Pattaya as Bangkok is to Cheyenne, Wyoming, USA.
  3. There is ALMOST a ZERO percent chance you will get in trouble. Just go to work. Why? Well, first of all, the school has tons of political weight in the community. The police will not beat down a school, embarrass a school, or fine a school. It's a lose-lose. I've been at many schools, this is common practice. I've also seen firsthand teachers in your position to leave school and come back an hour later because immigration (or someone) called the school and said they are doing a check. This is also pretty rare. So, yea, about a zero percent chance you get deported, etc......... If you are white and good-looking, then it goes to zero. Now, you can still get fired and NOT paid because they know you can't go to court since you were working without a work permit....this I'm not sure about. Yes, you have way less leverage not having this work permit, but I wouldn't worry if you show up on time (the most important part of the job) and look OK. To be honest, you think you have leverage with a work permit, but they can fire you for any reason, and you might not be thrilled with your last paycheck. The Labor Department doesn't force the school to pay you, there's still a court date or arbitration. I don't know this firsthand, but I've known teachers pretty bitter about their departure and went to the labor department for advice. remember, you should also be deported, arrested, etc....for being with a hooker. OK. Millions do it, why aren't they all arrested!!! the police know where the hookers are!!!!! lol. Once you start working, you will realize this is just the first of a zillion headaches down the road. keep us updated on all the red flags. The agency and/or school might take advantage of you. It's a good exploitation scheme. I hope you have a degree.
  4. This alone has me NOT watching the video and wondering why they are writing like this.......losing credibility with this writing style. might have worked in the 90's, not now.
  5. As old as time. read my comment!!! stop!!! no more fighting!!! no more drinking!!!! no more knifing!!!! no more, no more!!!! OK, now translate this and send it off to the 9 billion crazies. in 100-years holograms will be stolen, souls leeched, and bar fines 3 million yuan. so enjoy the fun times. not going to get any better
  6. 110th jab just this morning. 111th after dinner. You can never be too careful.
  7. first, the kids lock down that money. lock it down!!!! secure millions now or in the future. That's step 1 to 99. Step 100 is to tell the world, Look at me!!! I'm my own person!!! I'm not afraid to rebel against injustice, seek boundaries, fight for the minority!!! oh, hey waiter, the caviar is dry...send it back!!! Then they will proclaim how they are strong, independent, survivors, explorers, and truly unique. lol. has everything to do with money.
  8. would like information on both "numerous" and who are these "individuals" (humans)
  9. Nobody understands "Wherever you go, there you are"............until it happens to you. Feel bad for this guy, but there is almost NO place on Earth that will solve your mental distress simply by absorbing the culture. Professionals are likely not cheap, but that has to make more sense than LOS. yea, tough situation. good luck my guy
  10. I've seen about 100 teachers with little or no experience attempt to teach. I'm sure 90% had their heart in the right place, but almost none had proper training, and it just seems like a business. Some only played YouTube, some showed a movie, some did nothing, some smoked at school and got fired, some were hungover, some were way too quiet, some had no clue, some just gave them papers to do without talking, some........is this teaching English? nope. The good ones always left. lol Most are there for the visa. It's either a native or non-native speaker in the classroom, that's it. Evaluation? Nah. Just show up on time, and take a good picture. Babysitter is the best way to describe it, because if the kids aren't happy, they will complain. Nobody complains if the teacher lets them do whatever they want. Yeah, maybe it's different in the International schools; however, I'm sure it's not that different. The international teachers get triggered when you tell them that maybe 1 out of 300 kids are good enough in English to study abroad. Numbers don't lie......English competency is extremely low, turnover is super high, and pay is very low.
  11. windy is 100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000x better than anything else. yes, I'm sponsored and get 100 billion baht if you go there and agree with me. It is the best. it has the only radar that seems accurate. i digress, slightly. hello all, I am reporting there is weather in my area.
  12. Trans woman = woman. Haahhhahahhahahahhahahhahahahhahahahhahahahahhahaha. No it doesn't. I'm a trans elephant. It's a billion-year transition. You can NOT tell me I'm not!!!!! Or I'll sue!!! Hey, do an article on me!!! HELP!!!!!!!!!!! I swear we need a Snowflake meter (0-100). Hello, Sir, I see you are a Snowflake 85. I will go slow and.....well, what pronouns should I use? Snowflake 0. Good. Listen my guy, we gotta...... Snowflake 100. I can't.
  13. First I give them the disrespectful glare!!!! Shame on you for not working, lazy farangs!!!!! Then I take their picture and give them the sex pat look of disgust!!!! I'll speak Thai and flash my 5 baht gold chain!!!! Eye contact only for 0.000004 seconds, then shake your head as if you have just seen the worst human on Earth. Stare at their tattoos, shake head again!!!! Elephant pants, laugh!! Dirty hippy hair, laugh!!! This is a great way to make friends and influence people. We are social creatures, so it's nice to see the great evolution of the insecure farang. I stopped worrying about all this rubbish in my 30's. Yea, shame of me it took that long. I'll comment because it cracks me up. Another massive time waster is worrying about America when you grew up in (name any place outside of America). You won't get an American passport just because America lives in your head 24/7. Again, Buddhism. Relax....and remember, they are likely mocking you as well. Hey, remember that bitter falang???!!?!?!
  14. Seeing lots and lots of "teachers" hired without degrees and some leaving after only a day or week.......well, this system is broken. Non-native speakers getting jealous, Thai teachers enforcing crazy rules to de-motivate the farang who gets about $1000 a month in a world where T-shirts are now selling for over $500. Good luck.
  15. Let's say you wake up and look like these jokers. Hard to tell if "trailer trash" or meat heads or testosterone posers You are not going to the bank. You are not heading to the ER. You are not measuring black holes (well, maybe you are). You are not going to the nearest polo match. What are your options? 1. Drink 2. Drink, yea man!!!! 3. Drink, kill, kill!!!! 4. Drink, smash the can on your face!!!! 5. Pound, pound, pound 6. Growl noises
  16. flip flop on a TIT flop flip flipper to the flop flop Soon there will be a 180-day visa-exempt stamp with three crossings a year (??)) with a free massage, tattoo and beer.
  17. Success? In a business, capitalist way you are correct!!! amazing, superb, fascinating, great for a young adult, very inspiring. Life success? who knows. happy? who knows? reached enlightenment? 99.999% no way. I would absolutely want his money if he has some. Maybe he has other bad investments. Maybe he bought that Trump coin and lost it all. Nobody knows. I've seen too many rich people destroy families and themselves to claim "success" like the OP implies immediately. But he has done more than most, probably has money which buys opportunity and allows freedom, and I hope he's using it and his company to help others. Ask me again in 10-years.
  18. terrible situation. feel bad for him and the parents. But it's time to make light of this.... I came to Thailand with 50 baht, immediately did gofundme as I drank all night, rode my motorbike, and crashed without insurance. yes, doing dangerous things. dangerous behavior. not smart. not clever. but how can you predict these things? you use your brain, think, plan, be responsible. 100% of all farangs know insurance is a thing. 100%. It's the trolley problem. You are ON the tracks. That's the problem. dude is in TOS doing possibly dangerous stuff and then asks for money. with a zillion people in the world (we have no idea) I'm not sure my money will go to him first.
  19. odds were small i'd win this one contest. i won. odds small i'd get into this one school. i got in. odds small i'd meet someone who would be killed on a motorbike in Thailand. two already. odds small I'd die after meeting this one.......................... odds small the Nigerian Price actually exists.......yea, fact odds small a butterfly in Canada would make me miss my bus in Bangkok......nobody knows odds small COVID in our lifetime....who knows. anything can happen. Nuclear bunker to lock in 3, 2. ...............................
  20. maybe the guy is doing a deal and making 10 billion, so maybe it's "good" planning but somehow didn't have money to fly in and out, pay the 1900 for an extra week, pay the 1900 for an extra month, or a border run or whatever....anyhow, I digress. What I found that works is to ACT DUMB. Act like you don't understand the stamps and that you were sure the date was next month, but don't act dumb for too long. just dumb face expressions, scratch your head, nod, apologize, act like you had no idea... Then pay and smile and apologize again. had two overstays in three trips over about 11 years. one was the fault of my school and they paid, and the other was my fault from reading some visa stamp that was the maximum allowable day I could start the visa. first trip to Thailand, paid it going to Poipet, Cambodia (once in 2010, NEVER again!!! lol. That place is scamish), ah, wasn't fun, life goes on. it was like a week I think. i think my last one was in 2017 and it's only going to happen again if some life apocalypse happens.... none in the current passport and there are only five pages left, I do think that weirdly helps. anyhow. you will be fine but it will cost you. always sad to be a backpacker on a string budget but then pay 10,000 when leaving. met lots of backpackers back in the day who simply just don't check for months ...... for the old guys, we know exactly when.
  21. i'm a fan of going to see friends on Sunday. say good things, hear nice things, watch other families grow and act.....smile, more smiling. leave thinking you have enriched your soul and taught your family good ethics and morals. but it's not for me. at all. i don't want the church a part of my family. that's my choice. which is also fine. was forced to do enough growing up. once I turned 18, only went back one time for a funeral.
  22. As a member of the Vatican and SVP of getting cash, there are millions of people in the country that surrounds us that needs to give us money. a pope helps us get that money. a lot. think of the Bulls....did they really need MJ? yes, yes they did. sold more jerseys as well. please, no PM's for the FREE Heaven pass, but I do accept Bitcoin
  23. Good try, CIA. Not this time.
  24. That's why I never stopped wearing a mask, even in the shower and ........ I knew when I saw others wearing a mask in 2025 they knew something as well. Masks for life!!!!! Three when sleeping and four when driving, replace every 9 minutes.
