whoops, meant Chiang Mai (help please Mr.Moderator)In Bangkok there is a place called Bella pizza, anyone who has been there will know the texture of the dough, is there a place in Chiang Mai that is the same type?

list your girlfriends name, if someone has a girlfriend with a similiar name PM each other for details to see if it is the same person, try not to list their place of employment, but special attributes which can identify them.

i'll go first - Mint

My small company is having minor problems with employees not showing up on time.

The problem is actually two-fold. That is, we are not always busy, and the employees usually show up on time, however, they do not always, but it feels a little bit awkward to scold someone for not being on time, when they might sit for 4 hours and have little to do anyway.

And the frustrating part is that, when we are busy, and they show up late, it causes major stress for me. What should i do?

And when i am talking about showing up late, i do not have a problem if they show up 10 min late sometimes, but i am talking about when they show up 1-2 hours late.

sounds like you may own a bar with service girls and open in the evening? if so maybe ,they are late because there is no certain closing time, i know of one bar in the north that fines them for being late, but has no closing time...and expect them to stay until the last customer leaves. THey actually work more becasue of this.

if this is your business, i advise you not to fine them for being late, or give them a certain time they can go home, leaving maybe one or two people on rotation who must stay until the customers leave.

this is the only busines i can think of where the workers would be 1-2 hours late, any other type of business should result in firing.

theres aused reataurant equipment place on on nut road, saw about 6 of them about a week ago.

when you go to a restaurant the oldest person is expected to pay, not because its expected, but because he may lose face as not being the most successful, with the most income.

i really cant believe some are suggesting not to help with the bill, are you part of the family or not?...are you the most financially able, or just using the daughter for sex?

i once went on a job interview with a major milk company in bangkok and we went to lunch, i was rejected because i cut a piece of meat and switched hands to hold the fork and eat it.

yes this business owner had much class...pffffrench

i go to the thai style mens barber...70 baht and as good as any gay hairdresser.

i have a couple of honda click motorcycles for sale...i will sell them to you 5k below secondhand dealer prices.

the city -tesakij ... will aproach you for fees, just set up BUT don't step on anyones toes...thats when somchai the turtle comes in.

i know i have it coming, but i just want to give it one try and the benefit of the doubt... she's already started school at a princely sum of 9000 baht for the entire course + 3000 baht for chemicals and stuff...she's genuinely interested in learning.

i want to let her see the money is in the account, if i deposit once a month its like she will be waiting and at my beck and call and resent it, Lisu are fiercely independent people... i want to give her a sense of independence and security knowing that there is a future for herself if she follows through...also to instill a sense of responsibility...and budget.

the future will be in her hands, if she chooses to throw it away, then she also throws me away also...not like she would care if she does...

Is it possible to open a bank account and only allow 5000 baht per month to be withdrawn?

Im sending my girlfriend to school and don't want her to work at the same time, she also has a 1 year old daughter to take care of.

I want her to have peace of mind that the money is there in case of emergency and that i won't make a broken promise to look after her while she goes to school...unemployed.

SO !

Is it possible to open a bank account and only allow a certain amount to be withdrawn per month? I trust her, (gulp) but her siblings and 'good' friends may be a problem, once they figure out she has a sponsor...

she lives with her brother and sister in chiang rai in a house paying rent of 1300 baht split between them, so this should be enough to live on while attending her 6 month beautician course...i also see her once a month, and give what i can and buy things for the child while im there.

times are going to be tough for everyone in the near future, if i could give more i would, but at this time i want to give her a skill she can use to support herself, other than working in a bar...woman will always put on the war paint to attract males.

i have been struggling with a hilltribe girl for quite a while now, and nothing that should be happening ever happens...within the first 2 months it was all good....but these people cannot fathom the good you have planned for them beyond 1 month...

with dearest regret and dismay i suggest you let her go...only the immediate future depends to them not long time benefits, they cannot imagine what type of life you can give them..only the immediate motocye or monthly rent coming up...

dont fall victim... you can find someone that is more appreciative and sees your heart....you will never be able to compete with the people -sisters-brothers-bar girl friends, that whisper things into her ear....

you are an outsider...

imo...it depends on the nature of your business, if it is time sensitive then it is partially a responsibility of the employer to help with fines...sometimes a driver willing to bend the rules can be an asset to the company.

seems like there would be quite a few numbers to choose from, a smart person would call them all and get the best deal...but

If you doing it for a thai gf stop and think about it. It aint gonna work. If you trying to make money that is.

curious why you would say that?

be fair and agree to pay half.

drive down kingkaew road which is the road that runs parrallel to the airport...drive in the direction that goes away from on nut road, cross the bangna over pass and keep going until kingkaew ends and make a left....there will be a big factory on your left hand side, keep your eyes open.

your welcome in advance, there is also something called a phonebook.

any parties seriously interested please send a PM...general questions please ask here.

25% return on capital amount...but if it doesnt work, then you will lose the money.

unless they hang an expensive cam you only need a strong spot light to bloom it. If you can reach it with a hook, would be best to give it a strong pull. If it won't come free take a hammer to it.

if its an expensive camera it will become mine...i dare them to come and get it.

i live on the 19th floor and there are 26 floors, so i cant guarantee where its coming from...plan: install motion sensors with infrared light...dont want a big spotlight, i might freak myself out.

infrared will blind it the same as regular light wont it?

its classified as khanom bah bin - someone's own creation

I looked out my window the other day and saw one of those wireless cameras hanging down, someone is being nosy...as soon as i looked hey drew the camera up and i was far away from the window, so couldn't catch it in time.

can infrared light blind the camera if i have enough light output?

The more I ride the more im starting to notice just how many cbr's are on the road. I have seen just slightly less cbr's than yama nouvos...I mean heck, there has to be atleast 1 guys bike in the midst of all these sissy step throughs...now if the yama 125 comes out, ohh man that would be great, always liked yama technology and power.

Overall if I can find a used ninja like thaicbr says for 100k, i think it should be a good deal and resale would probably hover at that point for quite some time.

just how much heavier is the ninja over the cbr? alot or just a smidgen more?
