mrtoad Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Work permits are handed out to people who, in my opinion, are generally either second rate (at best) or (more often) third rate.Let's be honest -- how many first rate expats work for MNCs in Thailand? The answer is zero. First rate guys would never consider transferring to Thailand. Dave has obviously never spent time with the Diplomatic core ... Civil servants earn the same wherever they're posted. For an aspiring diplomat, BKK might be a useful first rung of the ladder, but it'll only ever be a stepping stone. For a private sector employee, BKK is very much the short straw. EXAMPLE I once spoke to an HR Manager in London. The company maintained offices in NYC, Sao Paulo, Paris, Tokyo, Singapore and BKK. The office in BKK never pulled in much cash. It was the least profitable of the company's overseas operations. So I asked the HR Manager why they kept the BKK office. The HR Manager laughed and said: "if we didn't have the Bangkok office, where else would we transfer the wan_kers". True story. Dear Dave ... can I call you Dave? You seem to have missed the point, so maybe I sharpen your focus. My actual post also included 'Could I offer up the possibility that 'first rate expats' do things that are motivated by other things then monetary gain? Hence a 'Thailand Opportunity' is acceptable? So Dave the reference to the 'Diplomatic core' was aimed directly at you who, in a sweeping and absolute statement basically said that ANY expat working in Thailand is 2nd or 3rd rate at their profession ... May I suggest that your 'People Management' skills have not been a high point in your career to date and to truly succeed in the business world you sharpen this aspect. May I also suggest again that that 'first rate expats' do things that are motivated by other things then monetary gain? Just my humble thoughts ... digest from that what you will. . Oh Pleazzze the righteous rap is nauseating. Whore mongers are who like T-land... lots. And pedophiles. and people pulling scams like a well known fake lawyer or dozen. However, people with governmental and military security clearances avoid the nation like the plague. because the whole world knows all the dirt about this nation and about why the vast majority of foreign men will jump through any flaming hoop immigration puts in front of them to maintain access to cheap sex. Horror of horrors to have to go back to where young, attractive prostitutes charge hundred of dollars !!! Oh Noooo only women your own age want anything to do with you Oh Horrors.... Nooooooooo I wouldnt expect anything other than that sort of SR BS from a Blair.

ATF Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 2. Yes she has 1 tattoo Thank you for your honesty. I now understand the cause of your problems. For the record, my Thai-Chinese wife does NOT have a tattoo. For the record, no respectable western expat has a Thai partner with a tattoo. Here we go again. How many Masters Degrees does she have?

EBlair48 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 I love how blatant gold diggers are considered charming to a lot of foreigners in Thaialnd - but only when they are Asian. When people of their own race behave the same way, they are castigated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
