Here is the situation, I have about 15 locals picking Lam Yai at the minute, they are not the sharpest knives in the drawer buy a long way.

They take things like buckets and ladders and carry them way out to the end of our piece of land, then when the work ends they are either too lazy or too stupid to return them back to the place that they picked them up.

 

Bare in mind that two of my sets of ladders cost almost 6000 Baht, you really would not leave them in the middle of a field where anyone could just walk in and pick them up.

 

What I am looking for is something a little witty in Thai script that says something like " Hey you borrowed this to make money, it cost you nothing as it belongs to me, do you think you could have the FUCXXing DECENCY to return it to where you took it from you lazy BasTXXD"  Thanks for understanding, these ladders cost me 6000 Baht!"

 

Any help will be appreciated!

 

Thanks! (It needs to make a bit of a statement) Could you put it in a  format I can print? I will love you forever! - They cannot see the logic that taking the ladders means I cannot get to switch off the water if it goes haywire at the tanks, or if the electrics fail in the light sockets.... they expect me to go stumbling around in the dark 200 metres at night to find my damned ladders! Jesus, the small pair is made from Aluminium, not exactly heavy to carry home!

Please Come on, give me something really offensive to attach to the ladder in Thai that will make a point! My bloody wife nearly attacked me with a pair of scissors for taking my own ladders in the middle of the night to fix a light bulb! I need someone that can shame these dogs! They seem to think that it is my problem that I have no ladder and that they were TOO TIRED to carry I back home. So in their logic, I can go and scour 32000 Square meteres looking for my own ladder that they borrowed! Sorry, not me! They will learn logic one day! And then attack me with scissors for using my own ladders! Well, that is the end of that, they will borrow absolutely nothing from me for free again, anything they want will be rented on an hourly basis, covered with a deposit ten times the original value! Enough is enough!

Actually, it is your problem if they borrow your ladder and don't return it. Lock the stuff up and do as Blackcab suggested.

 

You will not "teach" them anything. If you try then you're the one who'll get the education.

 

As far as your wife goes, this sounds like an unrelated problem...maybe?

Why the sarcasm. Just hang a note  saying to please return the equipment and tools when finished.

You move to their neighbourhood and call them thick dogs?

 

You run a business and can't communicate with the workers?

 

Learn to speak the language,  the you'll know what they (and your wfe)think of you.

Ask your wife if this would work if placed adjacent to the ladder.
บันได ... นำมาไว้ที่เดิม ! depending on how polite you want to be you could add ช่วย ....หน่อย perhaps.
If you have a formal storage area with equipment you might make the object อุปกรณ์ 'tools or เครื่องใช้ equipment.
