Berkshire Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 I don't get the OP at all. So if a security guard takes pride in looking sharp in his uniform, you take offense? Conversely, a lo-so tourist walks into a department store without his shirt on, and you applaud that? What freakin planet are you from? What someone decides to wear out in public is darn well a reflection of him/herself in any society. Do I judge someone at first impression based on how they're dressed? Damn right. It's natural. If someone doesn't bother to take a moment to dress decently for the occasion, it does reflect badly on them. Don't understand how some farangs can't grasp this basic concept. are u thai? I'm an American. And what difference does that make? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evadgib Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Years ago I turned up in Worzel Gummage order at a new Toyota dealership looking to buy a new car. Staff took one look at me and the car that I had arrived in (old Suzuki jeep) & didn't even lift their feet off the desk. 6 weeks later I returned wearing exactly the same clothing & tossed them the keys to a brand new vigo that i'd purchased elsewhere & asked them to do the 1000 km service 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats just racist What is wrong with this picture? Did he have to rent a white man to pull the wagon? The Thai King collects white elephants, in fact all white elephants born in Thailand belong to him automatically. I don't see the problem with that altough i 'm white. I could buy me loads of gold or a big benz or whatever needed to be the big man in Thailand. I prefer to live my own dreams though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post kaorop Posted December 11, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted December 11, 2014 . Is that how they really dress on the left to go to the pub? In the decent restaurants and drinking establishments, yes. Those who prefer to hang around beerbars and fast food joints can expect the types of clientele as seen on the right. Unlike in the west, most Thai people are taught to hold respect for those in authority that carries through to their homes, working and social life. Respect and politeness is a part of Thai culture, get used to it. like on the roads? or the footpaths? or to western foreigners? or to lao, burmese and khmer workers or to a thais with very dark skin? or to .......etc etc etc its not respect or politeness, just ass kissing those "higher", try to understand that little fact about your culture. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
