recom273 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I would make phatong Ko - the little fried Chinese donuts. I'm already a dab hand at home. You wake up early, pull on a pair of shorts, fry up a few donuts - you never see a stall with excess that he can't sell, there is always a big queue of people, they can't fry them quick enough. Make a couple of grand before 8.30 and relax for the rest of the day. Perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kinmaew Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 My dream would be to have a house on stilts by the sea, a piano and guitar for compositions and entertainment, brew or stock only micro brews, quality Euro and Thai food and ALL young (Under 40) female staff and rent out a few rooms. Any necessary male staff will be strictly fenced off and controlled e.g deliveries, maintenance. Then around 9 cute kittens purring around me permanently while the cash rolls in (Which I solely control and all land and property is 100% owned in my name)). Quality beers, food and puss - No need for heaven this is it! Maybe the next life.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shurup Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 If I were allowed, I'd be a PM, I bet I can clean this country up better than any Thai! before start clean up Thailand, maybe clean up the west first But, but the OP is about Thailand!? If someone let's me rule one of the western countries, I'd get it done quick. The biggest issue I see is the PC BS, as well as some retarded laws and regulations and some in the high up being above the law. But that is a different topic.

off road pat Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 (edited) Back in the old country I was an accountant but I always wanted to be a pimp and manage many girls. Unfortunately all the positions have been taken in Thailand, so I can't see that I will ever fulfil my dream. Yeah Costas, I wanted to say the same, exept the accountant part.... But a minister position with the government would be not to bad, seeing high corruption at first hand...Interesting...!

off road pat Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 If I were allowed, I'd be a PM, I bet I can clean this country up better than any Thai! No, you would be dead if you tried it the farang way. The Thai way keeps account with a lot more factors, and it seems to work. slowly but it works without rocking the boat to much... What is it with the Farangs ? always thinking they can do any job better than a Thai...? Like the US trying to control the middle east ! without knowing the delicate connections between different factions...what a mess they have made of it !!!

Cant disagree with you over the way the US handles things.

attrayant Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 General IT consultant - meaning self employed. I used to work as a consultant for various US Govt IT agencies advising them how to streamline business processes, find & eliminate redundancies and better manage their IT infrastructure & resources. Toward the end, DC Govt brought me on as a full time employee and I was a program director for a couple of years. Since I've been here I've had a few offers from international tech companies for some interesting positions but the jobs always require constant bouncing around to different countries and I'm just not up to that any more. If Google or Apple or some similar company opens a data center here I might be interested in some sort of operations management position. I don't think I want to be a director again - too much politics at those appointed positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostnigel Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I would really like to do building work, i used to like doing DIY. big or small projects. Would love to show these builders how to use a spirit level, or even own one. Next door just had the builders in, the driveway runs away from the drains, and the vertical fence panels are way out of level, must be normal here, coz my neighbours just paid up....

NoshowJones Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 Radio presenter. Done it for 47 years in the USA. Not possible here, unless you do it for no pay. Wrong. You still need a work permit whether you get paid or not. If I lived in one of the cities, I would get to know people, and when they found out I was a musician, and can also sing, I would have to turn down requests to perform. I suppose I have been a naughty boy sometimes, when I go to Pattaya with some Farang friends, I have quite often went on stage and did a couple of songs while playing the bass guitar.

It could have been worse, they could have had someone like Gordon Brown, to steal from peoples pensions or sold of their gold.That's if they had any in the first place. So you had to suffer that person as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
