| Teaching In Thailand Being a international school teacher in Thailand can be a great career with salaries in the range of $2,500 to $6,000 per month, or you could become a TEFLer teaching English with a salary range of 350-600 pounds per month, although with many teaching jobs it could be worth doing a TEFL course even if no experience is necessary, but will teaching students fulfil your overseas jobs yearnings? Is a English language teaching job something you really want to do? Can you teach English? |

| i have known numerous teachers to do a term or three drunk, stoned or both. at the risk of being spoken to meanly, i wish to broach the possibility that perhaps the driver in question didnt have his wits about him so to speak. is this possible or are we to accept without question the notion that having recently taught a private is a clean bill of health? |

| I must say it is pretty nauseating to see some of the over the top backslapping, one-man-upmanship and high fives being dished out by posters over at ajarn. Special mention goes to non entities such as aging one and zehner. Of course it's sad for his family that the guy has died. However, before he had openly talked about drink driving and not wearing a helmet so who really knows what happened. Last edited by Stranger : 25-02-2008 at 08:28 PM. |

i agree with you entirely that the public outpouring of grief for someone you dont know personally is OTT, and i cant understand it at all. but people like Zehner, Jarvis, AO were personal friends of his, and Z in particular did a lot with the fueneral and deserve praise even if they are not looking for it i dont believe the ajarn massive should be lumped into 1, although most of them are wankers, there are a few good peeps over there

| loss is painful and arbitrary. my heart goes out to the family and genuine friends of the deceased. i did not know him but he seems to have been a real person who lived his life fully and without harming others. i respect that. some of the shit next door is simply shit, however. it does not diminish the life of anyones friend to sort through the pig pile and pick the real from the silly poo. it shows no disrespect to speak honestly about the deceased. it violates no meaningful social rules to maintain some individuality and even discretion in ones method of grieveing. again, i never met the deceased. but he seemed to be a real person who led a full life. one wonders how he would have reacted the stuff that was/is contrived to celebrate his life. |

| Quite so. I gather the child in the photo was/is his grand-daughter from Scotland. Anyone can see it is not a Thai child, anyway. And even if it was, it could well have been a friends. Shouldn't read anything else into it, unlike the inference that was made that he'd shacked up with some Thai bird and was popping them out with abandon.
