free meal though right?

[bowie]

Well, ya gotta earn money somehow. Wonder what their work permit allows?

[hick]

Yeah,...snacks at least. It was so long ago...think it was a slide presentation

[hick]

Asked some pointed ?s and left w/ the impression that they'd never been applied for.

Had a friend of mine and his wife who signed up for all of 'em, gave them something to do. On my end, 2-3 hours or more of a high pressure sales pitch is a total waste of time. I'd pass even if it's surf and turf with caviar and champagne.

[jabir]

Whenever they stopped me for a 'survey' in the old days I agreed to answer their questions only if they promise not to give me anything free, which would get them moving on for someone else to bother.

Got approached by a tout in Phuket once. Aggressive bugger. He got quite annoyed when I declined to waste half my morning so he could pick up some cash.

sometimes they offer free stay in 5 star hotels if you listen all day to their crap

I knew a guy who did that just for taking his wife in a 5 star hotels in Phuket

Oddly despite my debonair , safari suit and mini moke means I only get offers to share a room for half an hour by Camilla Thrilla

[Jack meoff]

I had to go along with the crap all day,
But me and the wife got drinks and a free night in a 5*hotel in Phuket out of it

I'd forgotten about the safari suit. Time to bring them back for carrying excess weight on planes. Just look at those deep pockets! A couple of heavy books, a few battery chargers... I reckon you could get 10 kilos in those.

Thinking exactly the same, Saw some show about Charles at 70 made me think how handy , virtualy my dads Burma army uniform sold by my local tailor, Could add zips /velcro and a blue serge look for business and Pink and Gold for visits to Hat Pie the sewer of the South? Do you know a shop to get all those medals the brave train conductoers sport

They do not have work permits, the time share companies pay tea money
