That was the real issue here. He was too cheap to pay the higher amount, and was offended that his group was split up, due to his "kee know mak mak" nature. The so called "hi so" here, are mostly deplorables. Most are really despicable characters, with no heart or soul. It is actually a misnomer. Due to their cash they are given status. But, most are not even close to being high society, or what one might refer to as blue blood in the US. Most are simply fortunate people who have either made a fortune, or inherited alot of money. Not necessarily any class, distinction, higher education, or experience overseas. Few were the recipients of good parenting, and we witness just arrogance, hubris, ignorance and a feeling of superiority over the masses due to cash, and only cash. One would hope this insect gets some sort of punishment, or at least a public shaming over this. We all know the police will not do anything, as men like him are protected by the authorities and the army. Selective enforcement is the nature of the toy police. And the army is here to protect men like him, with every ounce of their beings. In spite of wanting it to be so, there are few "blue bloods" in the USA, money does not make you a blue blood, that comes from the aristocratic birth line, most from displaced European bloodlines. Most of the "inherited money" money in the US came from either the old robber barons, railway barons, bootleggers (ie the Kennedys) or shonky land merchants. Pretty similar to Thailand in some respects Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toenail Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 The guy probably thinks he’d a “worldly” man by driving an expensive import car but little does he know most well traveled metropolitan people would understand this common rule at buffets that offer more than one option.

spidermike007 Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 4 hours ago, petemoss said: Exactly. I regularly eat out in a great moo kata restaurant near my home with family and friends. It has the same split price/split seating. To suit everyone we all pay and sit in the upper priced area. Usually i.r.o. 10 of us but still only a few hundred baht extra. Because you are rational people, who have common sense. Whereas this worm has a fortune, and minces over a couple of hundred baht, then gets irate, because their policy dictates that those who pay less, sit in a different area. If he were not such a pathological cheapskate, he would have had his entire group together. Let us shame him, in whatever way possible, for as long as we can. His name should be mentioned, so we have the capacity to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have never heard anything like it. How unprofessional to do this, did they never think that a couple, for example, might choose different menus ? Some restaurants do children’s menus, which is very fair considering the child’s appetite.Some small kids eat free. Some people do have stupid ideas. The point is an assault, not the buffet and seating arrangements. You are indeed clueless. he absolutely did not say he condoned the assault in any way shape or form. simply commented on what some can perceive as sub stellar ideas by the restaurant, a component of the story. clueless? who?

khunPer Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 If you're rich enough to drive a Porsche, you should be rich enough to pay 495 baht for each family member, instead of discussing the difference of 3 x 136 baht, and seating together. If you can't afford that, and want to be seated together, then all just eat same "cheap" menu set. 3 x 136 baht, equaling 408 baht, is by the way a lot cheaper than 10,000 baht... Where I live in Thailand, some buffet restaurants have two different buffet sets – for example with, or without, extended sea food selection – and different seating, as it otherwise is impossible for the staff to control what are taken by whom. I don't enjoy seafood, but when with friends dining seafood, I just pay the little higher price for my non-seafood buffet, so we can enjoy the meal together. Yes, I loose some money on my food, but I gain many fold more on the company...???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
