Open-ended Question From First Timer To BKK
[QUOTE=ElDoradoNola83;2979895]Hey it'll be my first time in Bangkok. I have mongered before but only in countries where it's legal or in practice legal. Also only in brothels. So this is a new experience for me. Yes I've read the forum but what are some tips for newbies like me?[/QUOTE]This question has been repeatedly and patiently answered previously. If you have read the forum and not found sufficient info, you might get some better results by asking a specific question (s). The "Reports of Distinction" is a good read, if you have not already visited that section.

Trapped in a haze of misery and sadness
[QUOTE=Daytonamonger;2979966]Brother Newton, I've been reading a few of your posts and I find them quite entertaining and interesting. I know where you're coming from on the quitting your job thing. But, As far as quitting your job is your job worth keeping? Is there some kind of benefit or light at the end of the tunnel keeping you there? If no. I get it. Thailand has been in my blood since I first touched down there 13 years ago but as a 33 year old who had barely anything saved for retirement quitting wasn't in the cards for me. Fast forward that 13 years and I've been working like a dog sometimes only getting 4 days off a month total working 10 to 11 hours a day or more and now I have a nice chunk of cash stashed away for retirement and a benefit of flying for free domestically and very inexpensively internationally only a short 5 month period away if and when I do decide to call it quits. After 18 years in my profession I am ready to walk away but do have the benefit of schedule flexibility and 5 weeks of paid vacation plus the ability to "buy" time off by "selling" my shifts to a coworker, which allows me to be able to take months off at a time if I choose to and have the extra cash to do so. As much as I want to leave and live in Thailand full time I can't bring myself to do it at least until I get that 5 months and flight benefits for life.
Are you thinking of quitting just to go to Thailand only to come back and find another job and continue to work? If the answer is yes, think long and hard before doing so. The reason I ask is that last year I spent 4 months straight over in Thailand broken up by a few days in Jakarta to reset my entry visa. About half way into the 4th month things weren't the same as they were in month 1 or 2. Thailand had become a little "ho hum" and bills were starting to accumulate at home so I left a week early and then got back to work building up cash to pay the bills and for my next trip which I'm taking in less than 5 days. This trip will be about 3 to 6 weeks in length. I will admit tho after landing in the states I regretting leaving early the first day I was back paying USA prices for food, beverage, gas, entertainment, etc. Etc.
Depending on your job / career. You might be able to leave and easily come back and find another job making a compareable salary. If that's the case go for it and enjoy your time in the LOS but if finding another job might prove difficult give it a bit of thought first.[/QUOTE]I'm afraid I'm not even thinking that far or in any logical manner. I'm super old, so I'm honestly not sure that I even have a timeline that will last years into the future. Right now, for me I'm just trapped in this haze of misery and sadness, not just from work itself, but from missing Bangkok so badly. It's as much wanting to get away from the miserable fucks at the office, as it is to experiencing Bangkok all over again. No plan of any kind, just a short 3 week trip in Bangkok to fuck my blues away, and when I'm back here in the United States of Sadness of America, I figure if I'm still alive somehow, I'll just muddle through. I've got enough saved up for maybe 2 years. On some level, I know it's not realistic for me to actually retire in Bangkok, but I still have a few connections left in a neighboring South East Asian country, that might actually be viable, and even cheaper. I built those connections through literal blood, sweat and tears in my youth when uncle Sam forced me to go there to fight on his behalf. Now that I'm super old, I'm too tired to even think of any actual retirement. I just want to say fuck it all, bask in the glory of Bangkok for 3 weeks, and then deal with the misery here when I come back. I'd give anything to be one of those people in the Jeju or DC crash. For whatever they were going thru in life, at least they no longer have any worries now, because the pain of life is finally over. I'm serious when I say this, but I do wish death on myself everyday. So there's the paradox, that I truly wish I dead, so why can't I just resign and go to Bangkok then? What's really stopping me? I just don't know anymore. Lucifer knows I had my mid-life crisis decades ago, so this must be an end of life crisis. One last final chance to be bold and brave. One last chance to say fuck it to the man, and to try to make it work out there in the world.
