I kind of overspent on this trip. Exceeded my budget ..................

 

don't worry, you not alone. I overspend EVERY trip and yet, upon returning home , I think I could be more spendy so to speak.

I bumped into a Cambodian guy on Silom Road. He was going to gym. I asked him if he was still working at Dreamboys. He said no. He's a freelancer now. He said Dreamboys no longer hires Cambodians! 🤔

 

was that my guy D ?  If yes, he told me he is doing well as freelancer.

I was wondering what the usual max Bhat withdrawal was at the ATM.  I prefer to max withdrawals to minimize fees.  I now have a couple of ATM cards that refund fees which is even better

I have always been curious about other customers and I frequently ask my guy about his customers. He tells me which nationalities are most demanding and which are most generous in his opinion.

No surprise then that I was my usual curious self and I asked Abs Guy about the customer who offed him 5 minutes before I arrived at Freshboys on Sunday night.

Abs Guy was surprisingly open to tell me. Customer was from UK. After watching show at Freshboys, customer took Abs Guy back to hotel room to drink and chat only. Customer started smoking weed and became high. Fortunately, customer didn't pass out. He tipped Abs Guy for his time and Abs Guy left at 2:00am.

from my experience it's mostly 20000 but  SOME  Bangkok Bank machines are spiting out 25000. Warning -  when I tried to take 24900 , just to get some change , message appeared " this machine allows withdrawal of 25 banknotes only . When I  tried 21400  , it worked as intended

this would conform what  one of Tawan boys once told me " you would be surprised how many times guy is offing us only to drink and talk "

most likely he is so opened because he knows you for so many years.

My experience is that boys are extremely discreet when comes to other customers. Not sure if that's universal or they just think I'm not worthy such information but truth is I recall only one kind of specific comment  made to me about other customer, who by the way was known to boy as my friend. And it was " your friend likes to fuck right away". Who is fucking whom I did not ask and to this day I don't know which side of divide my friend is. Boy is vers , so it could be either

During karaoke, I asked Handsome Guy about the two Asian lady customers that he and 3 other boys were with at Good Boy bar the previous night. Did the ladies off them?

"No. They come bar drinking only. They buy boy drink. 4 boy. Show finish they go back. No tip." 😭

Those Asian lady customers need a lesson in etiquette. Boys' time deserves a tip. I tend towards the opposite these days - no boy drinks but tip more.

The yellow one (either Kasikorn or Krungsri, I can't remember) allows 30,000 THB to be withdrawn, however a maximum of 30 notes.

The yellow one is Bank of Ayudhya or commonly known as Krungsri Ayudhya.

The green one is Kasikorn.

They might not know the etiquette.

I ask the guy, you want drink or tip... 99% say tip

Yes, that's if the bar allows them to have a choice. In some cases, they don't and the mama-san asks the guys directly what they'd like to drink, rudely by-passing the customer. I understand that the bar needs to make money too but the manner in which they do it counts.

Only 25,000?

Hardly surprising,  as they get more money!

Brilliant observation @Keithambrose. Glad to see that Oxon and fifty years of legal experience haven't gone to waste. 😏

How are you? ☺️ Hope you're having fun Stateside.

I do that sometimes. Typically it's because I already had a great massage that day. But I don't off a guy to go back to hotel room to talk. We will chat while we go out to other bars and clubs.

Let's not be harsh on the ladies. They are out to have some time away from their husbands or boyfriends. Let them enjoy the companionship of handsome boys. And I believe the boys enjoy entertaining them judging by how they sit close to the ladies and hold their hands and hug them!

[mauRICE]

Yup, there are lots of lonely people out there and having a working boy/girl listen to them blabber on for a paid amount of time is a win-win for both parties because half the time the working boy/girl doesn't understand what the customer is saying and they aren't really paying attention during the other half. They're the best kind of "therapist" money can buy: they listen, they don't disagree/challenge you and they're gone in an hour!
