It is strange that Stickman highlighted what I consider to be mostly negative characteristics. Perhaps not strange as it is stickman. There are as many positive characteristics as well.

As with most places, you need to balance the good and filter the bad. I had some experience before working with a very successful US company. At the time I felt that 50% of the company culture is what made it off the charts successful. 50% made the people complete assholes. But it was hard to figure out which was which and not just go all in.

It can be the same here. Like K2 I don't work with Thais, so I can be selective with who I interact with. But sure being here has changed me, but hopefully for the better.

The funny thing about his article was at the top talking about the top earners. I thought he was at his most thai there. It isn't that he is too local. It is that he is unqualified and unambitious. Rather than better himself and seek higher earnings, he invents a reason that thais into fate and is unchangeable. That to me is a very thai trait and one that I most dislike. I believe we can all work to better are selves are all opportunities are out there for those that take it.

But not a fan of stickman. I like that mangosauce guy much better.
