BANGKOK — A taxi driver recorded calling young female passengers “whores” and threatening to kill them was fined Tuesday and ordered to undergo three hours of etiquette training.

 

After police declined to take up a case against Wirat Thassanatikom based on the complaint of several students, the driver was called to report to the Land Transport Department at 9am this morning where he was fined 1,000 baht for his behavior and ordered to sit through a three-hour lecture on good manners.

The air conditioner's vent was probably the only action that cab driver has had in years.

 

Or maybe just by beeing a paying customer that pays for the trip in the comfort of a perfectly cool taxi.

But on the other hand, nothing is surprising. Today they even ask their customers to buy them lunch. A bunch of morons!

1000 Baht fines do not hurt a driver 

 

Make them feel the pain a little and they will stop Raise it to 5'000 Baht and you will see a world of difference

 

In their attitude  Money is the great attitude adjuster

A foul mouthed taxi driver, what a suprise!

Tomorrow someone will find forgetful shopkeeper who short changed a revengeful, spiteful, lazy, spotty, spoit brat of a student and be wounded for life by their viral facebook social media hissy fit.

I wonder if the 'attitude adjustment' is similar to what the 'red guard' did to people in China back on the 60's?

Hardly. That little Government-sponsored social experiment included public beheadings, kangaroo courts and other victims (virtually the whole social caste of China's well-educated, other intellectuals, landlords and nouveau rich - all way to uppity for an insecure tyrant group) sentenced to years of torture and slavery. If you were literate, that condemned you as proof of dangerous intellectualism. The authorities here, at the moment, can only dream of such power and nurture their envy.

At least the kids got him reported to the police. The outcome, well soso but at least it hurts, maybe a little, hope it hurts a lot. A stupid farang would have not even know how to handle it, so kudos to the students.

The whole case was based on a great misunderstanding. The driver actually said; I`m paid to take you from A to B, not take you stupid tour.

Whorses for courses. 

 

We don't do a lot of things. Scream in text, elevate coherence and speeling, refrain from non sequiturs, and we never cite professionalism. A very dubious concept.

Attitude adjustment?? Hmm maybe you have to sit in a chair and listen to Mozart for 24 hours kind of a mental lobotomy. No insult to Mozart lovers of course.
