Good luck Scobie, I'm green all over. Lifestyle for a single man living in BKK on a good expat salary must be hard to beat. Spare a thought for us dreamers and wannabes, and keep us posted with how you settle in.
Cheers.

You still didn't answer my question. Which law firm? And how can you say it's the largest in the world? But I learnt something new... that law firms have marketing departments... hmmm.
So why is life sweet? What do you enjoy so much of Bangkok? The traffic, the hookers, the bars where you can drink yourself silly? Or maybe the idea that you can finally can get a girlfriend or bang another hooker every night?
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Dr Love.. i'll have the work permit by Friday, no problem
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Now you're rephrasing that promise....
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Hey, maybe..... with or without a work permit booklet.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
So do you get it or not on Friday.

Hey, DocLuv is just pissed that he was turned away at Elysium for the facial treatments.
Something the staff failed to mention!
Guess we were overbooked at that time...
Dr, need some treatments? We can make RTB look better so why not you?
Scobie, welcome in Bangkok. It is a good city eventhough some of us are forced to be here. At least they act like that....

...but the ladydrink thingie still has me a little worried. 
Scobie, don't let the naysayers rain on your parade even if you did get ripped off for 110 baht. 
OOooo..ripped off for 110 bhat. A whole $2.50US.
Wow! Hope he can still afford those Singhas.

*Sigh*
Having to justify why I'm happy is a bit tedious, but I'll try anyway.
I'm happy to be in bangkok NOT because I can bang hookers or finally get a girlfriend (quote) but because to me it represents a fascinating, exciting, freer next step of my life. It's to do with personal reasons, career development reasons and because - well, f*** it, because I feel alive in Bangkok like nowhere else in the world.
I'm not a fool. I know - instinctively - that the traffic, the pollution, the corruption etc etc will get me down many times. Maybe it will get me down enough to be as pissed off as some of the farang residents. Fair enough. When that happens, I will hope that I'm level-headed and balanced enough to decide whether the good bits outweigh the bad bits and make an adult decision about whether to stay or go. And act on it.
For the moment, though, I'll enjoy the honeymoon period, naysayers notwithstanding.
Which firm is it? And why is it the largest in the world? I'll answer the first to you in private, but it's not Clifford Chance.
Why is it the largest? Good point. Depends how you measure it. We're always called the largest because we have the most lawyers than any other firm, because we were first firm to top US1billion in fees and because we have the greatest number of offices in the world.

Oh, and another thing.
Of course all big law firms have marketing departments. We have around 250 professional marketing people in various offices around the world. The other big firms - Clifford Chance, Linklaters etc - do the same.
Do I REALLY need to PDF my bloody business card to prove it?

You are a godsend, Scobie. I need some advice. I was scammed by a guy in Chatucheck on my last trip in May to BKK - Paid 9,000 bahts for a old teak canoe but when my shipping company went to pick it up, he claimed his sister sold it to someone else without him knowing. Now he denied he even got my $$ although I have the receipt to prove it. Is there a place in BKK I can go to file a complaint against this ripoff artist ? Small claim court ? tourist police ?? Thanks, Scobie. You can PM me if you want. I will be in BKK in Nov. Will buy you a beer.
