Will the last person to leave please turn off the light
Re: Will the last person to leave please turn off the light
firsttimeinbangkok,
Countrys are good for different things. Britain/america/germany/france etc are good countrys to work and earn money, enough money to buy a house and retire on a good pension.
Thailand is not, the average wage here is like 400 baht a day. But this makes it good for a place to retire due to everything being relatively cheap. (and the good weather nice people etc etc)
the only reoson i posted that comment is because im sick of brits and americans argueing which countrys better, because you can argue about that all day.

Re: Will the last person to leave please turn off the light
When I was at Skool, we had the first BLACK guy in my town in my class (Orvile Oliver Orlando Owen), you couldn't forget a name like that. We were told (aged about 8 or 9) that we couldn't call him black ...... he was coloured (even though he was black as the ace of spades). I started work at 16 and my first boss was West Indian, who I couldn't call coloured (coz he was "black" and proud of it). Later in life I got to the stage where I interviewed and employed people who would work for my "team". I employed a guy called Asim Khan and and a (sari wearing) lady called Lila Patel in my team of ten people, because they were the best people for the job that needed to be done. They had the basic knowledge of the job, and in my opinion, were the best people to do the job.
I left my employ when told by a member of our "human resources" team, that I HAD to employ a black guy, who had no knowledge/intrest in the job, because our 40,000+ employees did not have enough "ethnic minorities" on our payroll ......... thank you BRITISH RAILWAYS/National rail, I wouldn't be in Thailand without you.

I agree Britain is screwed, and its own welfare system is much to blame. Sad once the proud British Empire reduced to a pathetic Isle. What goes around comes around I guess.

Re: Will the last person to leave please turn off the light
Not sure you can blame the immigrants. Who let them in???? The British government, the British people. If Britons were prepared to take the low paying jobs, then I guess you wouldn't have that issue. You can't have things both ways.
