a3tsw Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 There is only one way to guarantee that you get a proper English breakfast is to do it yourself. ensuring that you have control over the quality of the ingredients , real bacon and sausages , black pudding , Heinz baked beans , free range eggs and proper bread , yes a bit more work , but at least you get consistency , only downside is the washing up.

The waitress won’t be fired The farang will be ridiculed 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are avin a laugh!! if you even knew how utterly ridiculous that statement you have just made is then you surely wouldn’t have said it!! the average Thai is poor because they are lazy. They didn’t study, they chose the easy way out or got knocked up at 13 or joined a gang and did some jail time. now the only work they can find is waitress or taxi driver. That is not my fault or responsibility. I’m not here to pay for people’s rent through my tips, though I do tip if the service is good. If the only job you can get is a sever then why not be the best server you can be, instead of taking this perceived injustice out on paying customers with an aggressive and entitled attitude? if they are not happy in their jobs then boo hoo hoo, my heart bleeds. QUIT! PRONTO! And go and work on uncle somchais farm in Nakhon Nowhere in the scorching hot sun instead of spoiling everyone’s day at the restaurant with your sourpuss grin.

Thai's have the thinnest skin of anyone I have ever met. They can't handle even the mildest criticism and their pathetically childish defamation laws reflect that. Dealing with most Thais is like dealing with 4 year old children. Edited October 20, 2023 by Irrumator 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JensenZ Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 18 hours ago, novacova said: Then you should well know, don’t complain about the food that is served to you in Thailand, because it’s considered an insult. Adapt with politeness or buzz off 😃 Not true at all. I find it's easy enough to complain about something not right at all the restaurants I visit, and get a "sorry sir" response with no hard feelings or loss of face. The problem is with the management and how they train their staff. Talking about breakfast buffets (I prefer my eggs runny), I complimented the egg chef at a hotel buffet just last week on how well she made the omelets and I scoffed down at least 6 of her perfectly fried eggs. There might be a few things to whinge about in Thailand, but in general, I find restaurant staff are pretty good in my experience. Occasionally you get a bad egg, but it's not the norm. If you find the staff disagreeable at a restaurant, it's time to find another place to eat. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I haven't seen anything on this thread about the OP having problems with drinking or getting along with people. You seem to be like so many others posters on here - either incapable of reading and comprehending, making things up in what passes for your brain in a desperate attempt to justify yourself, or just plain trolling. I suggest you find a nice simple hobby, preferably not too taxing and not on the internet. Edited October 20, 2023 by Irrumator 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
