And how many Russians do you know personally? It seems there is a lot of discrimination here. What about the Brits, Americans, Aussie? They are the good? The honest, the nice ones? 

I don't like prejudices. It's pathetic and hypocritical.👎

The barber paradox: A barber states that he shaves all who do not shave themselves. Who shaves the barber?

It's already been explained in a previous post i.e. "They are pompous, rude, obnoxious, lie, cheat and steal." (P.S. You can add arrogant to that list!)

So you don't know any Russian I'm sure. Pathetic 😕. And you obviously never heard of Tolstoy, Chekhov, Tchaikovsky, Dostoevsky, and many others, as Chagall. All rude? Arrogant, stealing???

Insane post of your's unfortunately. 🙏

I only go into women's salons in thailand for haircuts. The guys get it wrong every time.

Funny. I good idea.

I keep a picture in my phone of the best haircut I ever had. Whatever barber I go to in the world, all I have to do is show the picture without having to try to explain how I want it.

I do the same, but have a few fails because the barber couldn't see the small photo clearly, and because my beard is white they think there is no beard in the photo and then shave mine off. Next time I bring my ipad with big photo, and I put duct tape over my beard, haha

I used to go to Goa for holidays but stop going after 6 years because of it being taken over by the Russians,they are ignorant pigs , always drunk and fighting each other

"Tolstoy, Chekhov, Tchaikovsky, Dostoevsky, and many others, like Chagall", would be ashamed of the rabble that floods LOS today. It's just the way that a few bad guys shape the image of an entire people.

 

In Germany they also say: "Wie der Herr, so das Geschirr." : 'Like the master, so are the dishes".

Putin is the master in Russia...

I used my "teacher voice"

After one lesson when I was forced to use this, I was christened Deci Bell by some clever students; much preferred this to Belly.

Just got back from Phuket and every russian i seen or heard  was no more then an animal. Rude boorish obnoxious pigs.

Next we may experience (some) barbers outright refusing foreign customers, thanks to this quality (well, they get 90 days on arrival, after all) tourist from Russia...

Pattaya and Phuket are disgusting places because they attract disgusting human beings (of all nationalities). And it's only getting worse. 

Troll posts contravening our Community Standards and the replies have been removed.

A story about a haircut brings out the russian haters from the woodwork . Waiting to pounce at every opportunity it seems . 

That was a hair  raising experience for the Thai barber 🤯

Oh, those Russians. Do not make any of them mad, including the women, as they

become monsters. I have seen it many times. Apologies are rare.

I love it....you need to be accountable for your work whether a barber or Thai Airways...It's time for the Thai culture understand immediate feedback for inferior or perceived poor work 

 

Lesson learned

This is not the question of responsibility but rather of  misunderstanding. If you don't speak Thai or you can't explain what you want you have to control your feelings anyway.

A lot of Russian men seem to have anger issues. A former work colleague of mine married a Russian broad. When they visited her hometown he experienced hostility from the local males who were angry that she'd married a non-Russian.

I tend to take people as I find them and I have yet to find a Russian that is friendly - you were lucky to find the friendly ones!

  Firstly, by virtue of the fact that they are wealthy enough to be here on vacation, and then chose to come to Thailand and go to Pattaya , self selects a certain type of personality. 

Then we do not hear about the thousands of Russians who come here and do not cause trouble, we only hear of the trouble. 

Then there is the bias confirmation problem. Here in Thailand We have developed a preconceived ideas concerning Russians an as such or expectations and attitude is skewed.

People don't like people that dont like them 

Or perhaps my perceptions were skewed in the opposite direction because the circle i interacted with , also preselected. 

But I think it is always wrong to make generalisations about a whole people. 

 

   

Thailand begged them to come, they did come, now deal with it

How does the hairdresser know the customer is Russian?

They usually have a haircut like a cop, a friendly face and mostly a bodybuilder figure. 😉

Sure they look like us but that is all.

How many times have you had a thank you or a smile for being courteous to them.I will answer for you.Never.

Try living in Phuket or Jomtien and you will change your opinion.

But could be worse.Could be muslims.

Must admit a lot better years ago, mainly  Brit's and Jerry's happy days

Hopefully this will damage the image of Russian "quality tourists" in public.

When I was working as a scuba dive leader, all us instructors HATED Russian customers. They wouldn't listen and would constantly break the rules.

Curious,  what is a scuba dive leader? Having been a Master Scuba Diving Instructor who worked in Thailand, it's a term I've never heard! Open water, Advanced diver, Dive Master, Instructor etc. Genuinely curious!
