coconutbar Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 The Thais that work in the 7/11 near my house in silom area are the most chilled out Thais I've ever met . I find myself drinking coffee , cracking jokes and chatting to the staff most mornings they really make me laugh how unserious they are...... Any TV members befriended the local 7/11 staff? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She is VERY LAID BACK... a bit too laid back when I have somewhere to go and she takes forever lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryB1263 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Love the girls at the 7/11s I have been in. I tend to go to the same ones over and over and the girls seldom change. I admire that they work hard everyday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Costas2008 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 OP, Leave my stuff alone. I don't pay their wages to chat and lough around. They have a job to do. Not, The Management. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavyDrinker Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 There used to be a very odd American bloke who'd hang around our local Family Mart. The staff seemed to tolerate him but would up calling the coppers on him when he began to get pervy at them. He spoke an abysmal hybrid of phrasebook Thai and Bar Girl Thinglish at them. He tried to speak this odd mix to my missus one evening but she gave him a right rant. OP if it's kipper tha needs head to the bars like what normal people do.

Popular Post SoiBiker Posted May 25, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted May 25, 2014 I don't get it. It's a convenience store - the whole point is that you don't have to spend more than a minimal amount of time in there. Why would you want to hang around? Surely the staff would think it was a bit weird if you were to do so? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Datebayo Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 7-11's are a godsend in Thailand. Can be found on every corner and every 200 metres orso. It's wonderful when I'm walking the long main sois and feeling hot and dehydrated, the nearest 7-11 is not far and just hop in to cool down and drink some icy beverage. Sometimes I bump into some cute ladies in there, that's just a plus. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Songhua Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 There are three 7/11's within two hundred metres of my place. My favourite is the one with the pair of rotund twins who always seem to be on the same shift and chant the 'sawasdee kha chern kha' greeting in stereo. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
