Overtime Poll At Immigration Bureau


RDN

Recommended Posts

Also gleaned from their website is another example of unfairness.

This unlucky foreigner was apprehended for simply having an illegal colostomy bag following his intestinal surgery...

I didn't see any story along with that picture on their website. Where did you get the information that he was apprehended for simply having an illegal colostomy bag following his intestinal surgery?

Ajarn - is that irony or stupidity ?

I sincerely hope it was your attempt at the former...

Pretty obvious...a lot of people must be claiming for overtime and not working it

:o

Pretty obvious? How did reach that conclusion?

To me, it seems like it could just as easily be an innocuous space-filler... The question is also poorly formed, making it confusing, so how can one so easily jump to a firm conclusion about it's meaning and purpose being there?

Maybe my eyesight is worse than I'd thought. :D

A simple question. Does that make me stupid, Pedro?

How did I reach that conclusion.....I read it....and kept in mind it is a Thai site...I once received a letter from the BOI in english that needed translation to english...Just because they work in government departments doesnt mean that they are all have a perfect command of the English language.

But they do try hard...bless them :D

Sorry, I still don't understand why you are assuming the poll is being posted because "a lot of people must be claiming for overtime and not working it". I can see nothing there that is so 'obvious'...

Clearly the bag is not the reason he was apprehended. As we all know, photos documenting the charge will always have at least five smiling officers and/or witnesses pointing at the scene of the crime.

I suspect he was apprehended for illegally having handcuffs in his posession.

I tend to give some clue when I'm trying to be funny or sarcastic...like a :D:o:D:D etc., etc...

This is text, not face to face talking. Assuming others should read between your lines or assuming what you write as a joke should be obvious to everyone else, just doesn't always work very well in a text environment without some more clues... It's not always easy to separate humour from some of the other junk posted here on a daily basis. :D

LOL.... hahaha... that's why I sometimes won't put a smiley after a bit of dry humor... such as the colostomy bag photo comment. Part of the humor is the confusion it might create in this often-too-serious forum.... :o I certainly didn't expect to snare Ajarn as he's very intelligent and does possess a very good sense of humor.... not sure what happened??

Hey sometimes shit just happens, na'? :o

I now suppose the other comment I questioned was also meant purely as a joke :D

Right, I could not find a :deadpan: emoticon among the clickable options. The best dry joke is when you can get someone to laugh at one interpretation, then cloud over in confusion, then laugh at the other interpretation, then cloud over with suspicion and finally then laugh at the whole situation. It's a bit like joke haiku!

I wish there were emoticons to show the _readers_, so we know how well the joke worked. :o

Nope...a bit tongue in cheek maybe.....but to me it is still a logical conclusion... :D
