Popular Post J Town Posted June 2, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 2, 2020 Christ on a crutch! Does the left hand know what the right hand is doing? School is supposed to start back up 1 July and the students have already lost months. If we go as planned, we will be working Christmas day. There is NO room for these days off - or, oh hell, who cares! THROW me a super soaker! 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HashBrownHarry Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 They just can't do without their beloved Songkran, you would think they'd be more interest recovery from this pandemic 1st ( oh hold on, that makes sense, scratch that idea )! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneeyedJohn Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 The amount of holidays' in Thailand is insane. Someone's birthday, someone's death, someone's marriage, someone's coronation, when the king sneezed, fer f. u .k s sakes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 (edited) "To put in perspective": July 4: Saturday July 5: Asanha Bucha, alcohol prohibited July 6: substitute holiday for 5. 7,8,9 (Thursday) "Songkran" Does one really expect that Fri, July 10, anything will be open/happen? So Sat Jul 4 to Sun Jul 12 "holyweek"? And that after the expected "grand opening" on July 1?? That will be fun (on the road and elsewhere).

Brunolem Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 15 minutes ago, KhunBENQ said: So Sat Jul 4 to Sun Jul 12 "holyweek"? Which means that school will not really start before July 13th! After 4 months of holidays, do the children need...more holidays? And does the moribund economy need to restart with a holiday? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
