zaphod reborn Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 So she was sleeping on the job and someone nicked her phone. She also slept while the thief rummaged through hotel rooms. Maybe next time she won't sleep on the job. Thai exceptionalism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onemorechang Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Only in Thailand. Wonder what she would say if she was fired for sleeping on the job. ( people very bad, I not lucky today ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezzra Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 My word, the crime of the century, there are dozens of phones and other valuables being nicked every hour everywhere in Thailand, what's the big news here than? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onemorechang Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 yes, not news worthy But its good to know , this could be a massive own goal for the Hotel. Would you ever stay in this place after they let this sort of behaviour go on. And then let it be known to the press and police. What a joke .

Ulic Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 No new information here in this article. The receptionists at almost all (except the biggest) hotels fall asleep during the night shift and people nick stuff from hotels all the time. Towels, soaps etc.. If the thief had not taken the young ladies phone the video would never have been reviewed. Now he has the phone maybe it can be tracked and he will be caught.

Happy Grumpy Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Thai receptionist sleeping, no security. The funny thing is, that all the Thais involved are probably not in anyway conscious of how much they fail. Fawlty Towers 24/7 right in front of our eyes. We really are so lucky to live in such a comedy land. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KMartinHandyman Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 It was an opportunity to headline a crime by a foreigner. Nothing more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikebell Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Hired a night-time security guard for my walled community. He turned up first night with a pillow and blanket/duvet. When it was pointed out that he was not being paid to sleep - he quit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
