A friend of mine wants to marry is g/friend. She is a teacher. Another of the guys who also has a teacher g/friend has told him that if government employees marry a foreigner, they will lose their jobs. Is this correct? Seems a bit odd to me, but there again TIT.

loose there

as I get older i find that i'm a bit loose here and there too.

I have a number of farang friends married to government employees. Some of the wives are in senior positions. Those ladies didn't lose their jobs.

I am married to a government employee Teacher and no she will not lose or loose her job. One benefit is when staying at a number of resorts or hotels your get an additional dicount.

Thanks for that. The guy who told my friend is hard work at the best of times, so maybe it's her way of putting him off.

Actually it's a good job I'm not superstitious. We have been married for over 5 years now. We married on friday 13th June.

Did you marry a Goverment employee? I only ask because you said you were married on a Friday and they don't work on Fridays correct?

Did you choose that date to prove your non-superstitious-ness-ess-ness, or didn't realise it until after all the invitations went out in the mail?

No she didn't work for the goverment. Actually what chose the date was, Sopha said "We can marry on the 10th".

I said "No way the 10th is my unlucky day."

"Why is 10 unlucky?"

"That's the anniversary I had with the 1st wife."

So I just said we will marry friday, never even thought about the date.

I know some people that is married to gov. people, nothing happend...

It might be a way for her to tell him that she doesn't want to merry him, or a principal that does not like foreigners...

If she told him that she would loose her job I would tell my friend to look closer into the relationship, maybe nothing is wrong, but it sounds strange...

She is only a teacher, nothing big or high up there? sure she has some reputation but I guess that will only benefit from becoming a spouse of a farang...

All good points. But just keep a look out if she keeps putting the salt shaker next to your elbow or keeps asking for a dark haired cat, for that matter, double check her lottery numbers to make sure they are not 666 and while you are at it, better fix those cracks in the sidewalk outside your house mate.

Failing that, marry a gov employee

Absolute rubbish - no truth to that at all: my wife is a "government employee" (department of education as well as it happens - she lectures and undertakes research at Uni ), and there is zero truth to that - zero - none at all.
