Technically, "years" could theoretically be "0.25 years". However, colloquially, when we say "years ago" this usually means "several years ago", possibly three but probably longer.

"possibly three but probably longer."

Yes,that's the way I use "years ago",

it's a way to emphasize that it was several years back. 3 years (in this case less than 3 years) is in my opinion not very long ago.

Troll?

 

Do you remember the German stupido who helped his Thai GF with selling chicken barbeque?

Not enough: he had pictures and video taken for FB and a Thai TV station.

Big fun/applause on day1.

Day2: no fun, immigration watch TV too, arrested, been on overstay(!), due for deportation.

 

A German mate made "jokes" about me when he saw me cutting the gras in front of the house (brushcutter). "Do you have a work permit").

Immigration is reading this topic it seems, they saw a farang working in the market and they went for it directly. 

The article wasn't about any farang.

Well it is nearly three, so why is everyone on my back? What dull lives some of you guys out there live! Running out of grammar to correct?

It can be extreme sometimes. There was a Belgian guy sitting everyday in the bar of his Thai wife, speaking to fellow Belgian customers. He got in trouble, he was told he was a kind of his wife's bar public relation, and was entertaining customers, and therefore needed a w.p..

Amazing, surely he could have claimed to simply be a customer. 

Obviously someone complained and then the police were obliged to investigate, then obliged to extort.

You are correct, thank you. I wonder if it yet qualifies as 'some years back'?

That's bs. As long as he doesn't do anything in the bar,he can sit there 24/7. Especially when the bar belongs to his wife.

I've seen the french owner of Dom Pizza on pratumnak hill serve food

That's against the law. An owner can never serve food in a restaurant,even in his own,but I think he knows that.

I am agree with you, but by paying some "contribution" he was left alone. 

 

Of course there are "warriors" who are ready to argue with the reprensatives of the authority. 

 

Usually not, but some may even win. 

 

I am personally 19 years in Thailand, I abide. 

 

The day I will consider something as  too much", I will leave, not trying to change the system in place. 

 

But of course we are all different.

Sometimes those guys can have a WP as a specialist chef.

Russian girls wait tables etc but have WP as entertainers/dancers.
