Apologies | Trump Isn't Racist
Do you have reading comprehension issues. You quoted my reply in response to a poster who said he would take all South African whites if he could send all the blacks in America home. That's not racist? That's not me projecting anything, that is a clearly racist point of view. -

Credit card hacked !
This is such nonsense. You still need a debit card to take money out of the ATM, unless you are one of those persons who insists on lining up to see a bank teller for a withdrawal. If the government had a sinister plan to control credit cards, it could just as easily apply the same measures to debit cards or even bank accounts. The extent that you people go to weave such imagined convoluted plots is scary because you are allowed to roam freely amongst us. Canada did not shut just anyone down. What it did do is to freeze the bank accounts that were collecting funds for a handful of bullies who were terrorizing a residential population in Ottawa and who were engaged in illegal and inappropriate civil disturbance and protests during Covid. Blocking the shipments of essential goods such as food and medical supplies at a border crossing was not legitimate protest. Disrupting the delivery of medical services was not legitimate protest. Multiple requests were made to stop the blockages and were ignored. Court orders were secured and were ignored. Parking heavy trucks on residential streets, blaring music and horns at all hours, and running the engines such that the neighborhood was filled with choking diesel fumes was not legitimate protest. Terrifying children and stopping people from the use of their homes was not legitimate protest. Court orders were given to cease and desist, and were ignored. The government's response was far too mild when it came to the small group of selfish bullies with their claims of conspiracies and their promotion of far right political ideology. You keep paying with cash. However, do not expect merchants and retailers to accept to bend over backwards to transact act with you. Have fun making a big purchase like an airline ticket or a hotel stay. Lucky for you that you do not travel much or have the need to make large transactions. And lucky for you that you can manage with a poor credit score. Most people cannot function like that. Some people use their credit cards to obtain status at hotels and on airlines and that makes travel much easier. -

Working while permit is processing
1) It is illegal to work w/o a work-permit. 2) It is illegal to work while on a visa/extension which prohibits working. 3) It is "common practice" to hire foreigners and tell them "not to worry about it" - often during a 3 month "probation" period. Most foreigners do not get caught. But, if you get caught, they won't be able to help you from being arrested, jailed, deported, banned - all possible outcomes. IMO - if living in Thailand is not a high-priority, vs somewhere else (Cambodia, etc), then maybe it's worth the risk. Alternatively, one can get that type of work in Cambodia, Vietnam, etc - then come back to Thailand afterwords. -
