tingtongdingdong Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Went for a drink at a bar in patts that I've been going to for 5 years . bought 3 bottles of hongtong and a bunch of food for the staff to drink And not one customer the whole night. So I had a quick kip on the couch and upon waking I was presented with a 400 baht bill for my sleep. Of course I pissed off without paying but that's pretty rude as soon as there's no new customers they treat me like a stupid newbie all over again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think 400 is the right price 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rumblecat Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Sounds like they probably don't want you in their bar, certainly not keen on you sleeping on the couch in it I guess. Were you buying drinks from the bar though or were you drinking stuff from 7-11? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trainman34014 Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Can't wait for the next episode where the bar owner and his mates chase you with iron bars and guns to get the 400 Baht....plus commission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DLP Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Confusing post. Do you mean that they wanted to charge you 400b for sleeping there, if so thats the same price as renting a room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Nautilus05 Posted May 6, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted May 6, 2014 So, let me get this right... you went to 7/11, bought a bunch of booze and food, then showed up at a bar in Pattaya and shared it around with everyone including drank it yourself until you passed out on the couch. Then when you awoke from your drunken stupor, you were pissed off because the bar wanted you to pay something? I'm going to try that. Buy a bottle of whiskey, walk into a night club, settle myself in and start drinking away while offering the staff some drinks too. After I'm piss drunk, I'll just have a nap on their sofa, then walk out within paying a single baht to the club. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suradit69 Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 What did you expect...there is no gratitude...only greed...in the Land of Lies... The white man's burden redux. Why anyone should be grateful because bwana farang dispenses some (unasked for) crumbs from the table is a mystery. Presumably the "Land of Lies" comes from frequenting bars where women tell you that you're a handsome, sexy man rather than telling you that you're old, fat, smell like meat that's gone off and that you wear the same unwashed clothes day after day ... just like the women back home in the Land of Truth told you before you ran away to Thailand. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrfaroukh Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 You are late it was already low season without a low season. The tourists are running to other parts of the world well may be some Thai people has to change the attittiute towards foreigners. I notices this year that the way they talk to foreigners has really changed. They have no patient to reply nicely if you ask them twice. They rudely talk to you. Of course it is not everywhere but I see the change. The political problems in Bangkok also probably has some effect and as many countries has warned their citizens not to travel to Thailand.

daveAustin Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 You went overboard by buying them food and thus setting yourself up to be taken advantage of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeycountry Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 (edited) I'm confused. Did the OP not buy the drinks for the staff from the bar? I know people bring their own whisky to restaurants, but bringing you own drinks to a bar that sells nothing but ... drinks? Can I also bring a KFC meal to FUJI, and then just order a coke? - or perhaps nothing at all :-D And who sleeps in a bar?? If tired and/or broke - go home!!

DP25 Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 I'm going to try that.

After I'm piss drunk, I'll just have a nap on their sofa, then walk out within paying a single baht to the club. In a lot of Thai bars, you actually can bring your own whiskey in. But you do have to pay for the ice, coke, and soda water to mix with. I do this sometimes because I like to drink gin, and the bars near me don't have it. You generally can't do this in 'farang' bars though. If he bought from 7-11 I'm guessing they charged him a corkage fee for his alcohol, which is perfectly reasonable. The staff was surely mixing with coke, soda, and ice as well, which isn't free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny. ggt sort of rhymes with "eejit," don't it? As for the OP, that is one cheap, sorry SOB. And if he was sleeping for hours, how could he possibly know that there were no other customers the entire night? Why do some people have to lie constantly on these forums...

MrWorldwide Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 The bars are mostly empty, but try taking a stroll down Walking St at midnight. Less Chinese family groups and more young guys from the Middle East and India, but they seem to be cut from the same Cheap Charlie cloth. I can live without that circus.
