Being told to sit down

[Everyman]

I like to stand at bars for my own reasons. Why do bar staff INSIST that I sit down? They will stand next to me telling me to sit down, over and over and over again. “You can sit down.” 

 

“I know.”

 

”Sit down.” 

 

What is the deal with this? I hate explaining it over and over again, I’m thinking of making up cards in Thai to hand to them so I don’t have to do that. Why do they lose their <deleted> if don’t sit down?

They want you to relax plus it's a job hazard as they are short.

Tell them "No thank you" and wave them away.  They will catch on.  It's not so hard really . . .

Find another bar, preferable one with no chairs.....

The great thing about Pattaya is that you can get your beer-to-go and drink it standing up on the back of a baht bus.

It so that their unflattering comments about you can pass over you head unimpeded. ????
