petedk Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 I find it strange that people "reserve" a table by placing umbrellas, plastic bags and ID cards on the table. I often go to Terminal 21 and many tables at lunch time are "blocked" by people putting their ID cards on the table. Many of these cards are from nearby banks so I often wonder what would happen if a complete stranger was to grab one of them. Would he/she have access to "closed" departments at the bank? I sometimes feel like grabbing one and taking it to the Head of Security in the bank. Back to the topic. I often ask if there is a vacant seat at the table and often the answer is "yes" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanrchase Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 I can't get what the OP was looking for. Justification or ridicule? Just venting, really. Apologies to anyone who was offended. Bad things happen when you come between a hungry man and his lunch. Ta. Get it. People including me will post. Daft posts, serious posts? Most are a bit of fun, excellent replies a lot of the time. Some harsh but deserving. Keep hold of your umbrella. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because apparently it never happens. Yeah, I was quite surprised by the ID cards, too. I guess people here are quite trusting about that sort of thing. I think the system makes sense, though - better to do the search for a table beforehand rather than wander around with your lunch going cold.

FACTOR Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Kudos to SoiBiker for sticking it out during his thread. Nothing worse than a thread that the OP never replies to. DITTO -- good on 'ya SoiBiker. A few have been trying to take you down, but you've put up a good counter argument. Anyway, back to the topic: Food courts are one of the better aspects of life here -- tasty, fresh food at a good price in a community oriented setting. No pretences, what you see is what you get and it's usually just fine. Hey... you can eat pretty well for, what, 100 baht, less? Regarding the seating, I check the place out first to see if getting a seat is going to be a big problem or not; if it's very crowded or the place is full up with brollies, I go somewhere else and come back to the food court another day. I think it's called "going with the flow". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soi Biker is a lowly paid TEFLer who can't afford to be flash with the cash hence he can't even get a woman to stay with im and find him a table.

Not that I am a EFL teacher, but teaching can be an honorable profession, and there is a real need for English language instruction in Thailand, so why all the put downs about teachers? Surely, there are less salubrious characters and professions among foreigners here or is all about how much money you earn? BTW, there are some VERY well paid teachers here. Maybe RottingCorpse had problems at school when he was a little boy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So would you sit at a table that has 4 half eaten plates of food at it ? Or could it be a seat saving practice ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The table clearing staff are pretty on the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is probably mainly done by people with names like RottingCorpse whose wife cannot stand to spoon feed him because she can't speak enough English because he refuses to pay for her EFL lessons.
