Life in Thailand is hard. P.B i think i know where you are coming from. if you have made the decision to stay here, it's not an easy road. we don't get the benefits a thai teacher gets. we are employees. yet, for me, when the situation suits, I MUST DO MY DUTY. i work in a gov't school,S.W.k., have done for 5 years. been on 30k for the last 2. the workload has increased, nothing in return. WHY? " You get more than most Thai teachers do" i also have three different courses that i teach , exams to prepare, and the added challenge of teaching a foreign language. IF, IF iwasn't married to the best woman in the world, i'd be gone tomorrow. sometimes i just feel so down. P.B, you live in C.M, i,m just up the road. maybe you could p.m me and we could get together.
