  1. I can't speak to the Bangk-CM leg, I think CM a bore. Trip down to Butterw dozens of times, a bit too long to be "enjoyable".

    Most fun was always the return trip from NK to BKK - after everyone scored visas. Party car was roaring and the staff good fun as well. Ah, those were the days...

    I always book 2nd cl fan unless its the warmer parts of the year.

    Love the trains, always a bit miffed when the wife triesbAirAsia out on me. Why wake up at 4am? Why taxi out to DM?

  2. I had farang bf before ,we met in London when I was 25 and that time me was younger than him only a year. I was in London for my college and never had bar girl job before while he had a job in Harrods as a,pizza chef.

    all I expected from him was " love "

    but it was totally different from him. He used me for money and sex. I strongly remember that since the first day we lived together til the last day. he never spent for rents and "everything".

    After 8 months we lived together I found that his family background was ok,not that poor liked I think.

    they had small supermarket in Europe and enough properties to support themselves.

    in finally he cheated me, had another girl while I went back to Thailand for summer.

    Well,I think I lost about 2 millions in him in minimum.

    but I'm still be positive to any other farangs I have met after that time.

    Because this thing is depends on our own destiny and karma we have had. so I take it as the time if I met a wrong person that could hurt me or done wrong to me. its because a karma of mine.

    ps. And you can be sure that I had no buffalo at home and my English is not verygood also.biggrin.png

    English - of course, should have known better.

  3. A "girlfriend" on Skype. You're a regular bon vivant dude.

    Why in the world would you think you could meet a woman of proper character on the Internet? You played it all wrong. You should have hooked up, banged the hell out of her and THEN said...oh, about all those accounts...

  4. How many bladez does that stupid thing have?

    Still using by Trac2.

    If five blades, why not 8? cheesy.gif

    Yes, hate Starbucks coincidence, no. I think they are similar sorts of items and I can see someone who spends b200 on a blade pay b200 on a sugary milk coffee. Both are for Nancy boys.

  5. Thanks, how is this negotiated? They tell you what they are paying or is there any (a lot) of back and forth?

    Is the 20+8? 20-28k? Sorry, I'm not understanding this.

    Public universities - lots of office hours no?

    Should I consider those to be standard packages/salary and any fewer office hours just lucky for me?

    I had read best time to look for work was month of October?

    Many thanks.

  6. What is the minimum starting salary that someone like myself should expect in BKK from public scoll and uni/college forn2013?

    How many hours and office hours?

    52yo, male, 20yrs in/out of Asia.

    Married to Thai office worker

    BA from top 100 uni in USA with honors

    Substitute teaching credential (expired), five yrs

    One year total (2 schools), Korea 1996-7 (should this even be noted as it is so long ago?)

    On one year O visa and wish to remain as such★

  7. Yesterday set up joint acct w/ the wife. They tried to upsell us into 3% acct, locked for two (three?) years. Needed to make addl deposits as well, not sure if I understood correctly but same amnt or more as initial deposit.

    Have no intention of wding the money but why would any fool lock money up for 3% minus ten percent of that, so abt b2700 per 100k.

    Then there are the five year accts, who knows where inflation will be in Thai in five years. Thailand is one of few countries that has not YET debased its currency, but has many reasons to do so.
