Thank for your comment Sir.-When you mentioned second job, ..thought came to my mind, the thought of employment/unemployment in Thailand, I read that Thailand now has about 66 + millions of people, are there jobs for all those people?...what is unemployment rate?. Bkk.`s official population is about 6 million +- at night time, in day time when all people from suburbs flock into the city for work it swells to 8 millions, and if you ever been there, you know that Bkk. is definitely very "crowded" city. So do all these people have jobs?, ...are they happy with their lives and jobs they have?..I watched for hours those motorcycle taxis on street corners, they would be just sitting around for hours, without getting even one fare, and when they do, it`s 20 -40 bahts, so how can they survive like that?...same with food cart sellers, there`s lines and lines of them on sidewalks, and I never saw a line of customers in front of any of these carts,. So how do they survive? it seems that they don`t have enough jobs for their own Thai populace, can a foreigner find a common, everyday job there?....[ p.s. once a saw a line formed in front of a food cart vendor, I said to him; "Wow!!..you`re lucky to have so many customers look at that line..."..he said to me "Nooooo,..they are not customers, they are responding to my '"Help Wanted"' ad!"... ,a little humor there, it never hurts ]
