Stopped for diesel at a fuel station on the 121 Hang Dong area and asked for 500 bahts worth. Whilst that was in progress the wife noticed some mangosteen on the adjacent pump island and asked to buy some, the pump attendant said sorry, it's free with 700 baht worth of fuel, no problem says wife.

Another attendant, senior I guess, had overheard the conversation and as we were about to leave tapped on the window, and with a big smile gave my wife a bag of mangosteen, pointed to the badge on her shirt and said PT care! 

 

A nice touch.

Why didn't you just buy another 200 baht of fuel?

Why did I know that would get that sort of response sooner rather than later.

Perhaps you would like to guess why I did not buy more fuel?

What 'sort of response'? A genuine question. 200 baht's-worth of fuel and free food seems like a good deal to me.

You do know you completely missed the point of the original post?

And smiles and friendly chatter .. isnt that the thai lifestyle. Avoid anger. Details. Confrontation. Keep encounters pleasant

Agree, something bad happens, laugh and move on.

Angry Thai, buy them a beer and you're their new best friend.

I can do the laugh and move on thing with Thais now but I'm still struggling when it comes to dour farang especially in Pattaya. 

 

does anyone know of any jai yen yen schools I can go to to get rid of this lingering hatred. preferably in the Si Lom area of Bangkok ????
