Charging Phones Or Laptops In Pattaya

I use my small laptop at Coffee World...Starbucks and all over Pattaya and Bangkok.

If my battery runs low I plug it in a few minutes.

Never has anyone complained.

Most places offer public outlets for phones or ipads or small notebooks.

I always buy food or drinks and leave a good tip.

Most times I am joined by 3-10 fellow farang. All eating and drinking. I am the only laptop user.

Today I plugged in at the Food Park at Central Festival.

I have spent thousands of baht there as well as always shopping...movies...haircuts...restaurants etc and was ORDERED by a new guard to UNPLUG because I didnt pay for the electric.

According to UL a small laptop costs about 5 dollars a year to charge.

My question is this...

Why are Thais given power to CHASE away big money spending customers and their mates just to show their authority?

When I asked the mall concierge they said feel free to use the plugs.

When I returned the guard went crazy!

Recently I am seeing this pennywise...pound foolish attitude with many Thais against farang.

Anyone else notice this?

I would have probably just ignored him...politely, however. I mean, it's probably the only sphere of his life where he feels he has any autonomy and exercise some authority. If he then brought over some kind of mall manager who also requested the same, I would have complied.

As for the attitude, I haven't noticed much of a change in over a decade of living in both Bangkok and now Pattaya. If you give a little respect and kindness you usually get the same in return.

RIMMER...Classic Video.

Yes THAT IS IT!

I call it the Wyatt Earp Syndrome.

PS Today I went back and was told please plug in.

Also the guard got fired for asking for tips. I didnt get asked but guess others were and reported it.

Amazing. Miracle. Scammers!

Watch out for the inside man.

My great referred to the fact that the staff told the guy that he could plug it in.
