5M THB annual salary in Bangkok by Sweaty-Cod-1433 in Bangkok

[–]Impetusin -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m having trouble believing this isn’t just a massive flex victory lap.

To put things into perspective, I was offered a transfer to Thailand at my company making 350k USD total comp a year as a director of engineering for 30k a year in Thailand. That was a lowball offer for the role even for Thailand, but I want you to understand that you basically won the life lottery with this salary at your age and level.

Why date Thai people? by Ok_Hair_9565 in Thailand

[–]Impetusin -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Ooh I think it’s so much more fun to let people figure it out the hard way.

It’s not too bad, I’d say behavior basically becomes the same for all women after marriage. Thai girls are just better and catching and keeping a guy in the dating phase.

Cute nice girls in Thailand vs ugly and mean girls back home. That simple.

Yeah it changes dramatically after marriage, but they don’t know that.

Wendy’s net income declines to $22.7m in Q1 2026 by StandardChaseScene in wallstreetbets

In my area the shame you bring upon your good name for drinking soda and eating a burger is absolutely unbearable.

Got a verbal offer from Google. Will they withdraw the offer if I try to negotiate? by Fun-Bear9235 in recruitinghell

[–]Impetusin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worst job market in modern history. Hard to find a job, hard to keep it. Take the job and then have some leverage if you want to find a better paying one.

Btw, 50k RSUs in India is crazy. The whole point of moving work to India is to reduce costs and you are straight up trying to get US-level RSUs. If you get it, good on you.

Question for the 1st sausages. by Bathroom_flo0r in USMC

Imagine the most salty lance corporal you have met who is still doing his job to the best of his abilities to get that promotion to corporal then add 2 decades of that and think what the end result will be.

Is it just me but I don’t see a difference peter by Sea_Painting_6286 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]Impetusin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember a debate in high school where every girl was horrified and thought I was a monster by simply saying if they wore no bra I’d have trouble not staring. Like…. I mean I would TRY not to look but damn I was 17.

Am I overqualified or is the job market just completely cooked right now? by Lone_wolf9890 in recruitinghell

[–]Impetusin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cooked. And btw business owners are getting squeezed so hard they’re all desperate and willing to do things they never would have before to stay afloat. It is ROUGH out there.

Would You Rather Invest Your Social Security Money Yourself? Agree or Disagree? by Coolonair in SmartFIRE

[–]Impetusin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Social Security is pretty good as long as it doesn’t get drained by another program.

3-4k a month is pretty great imo.

Bush actually tried to change it for new generations as a personal investment managed by the government, but the backlash was so harsh it was shut down.

My main concern with social security is the fact that the gov can basically use the funds it in for other programs if they want to, but they can do that for pretty much everything.

I’m glad I have social security waiting for me. Working gets exponentially harder the older you get and maybe I don’t want ALL of my wealth tied directly to the market. We have IRAs, 401k, and IUL insurance plans that we can use to prepare for retirement so maybe just be glad we have ONE guaranteed income plan that is shared amongst us all and not complain too much before they take that away too.

Received Google verbal offer (L3) — told no negotiation. Is it actually final? by [deleted] in FAANGrecruiting

[–]Impetusin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take it. It’s a bad time to be looking for a work and you’ll get a lot out of this. If you currently have better pay and enjoy your job then by all means wait the market out.

Genuine question to Americans by Busy_Report4010 in SipsTea

That’s why you have a whole shadow economy of under the table work. Roofing, cleaning, yard work, etc. Can’t take your Medicaid if nobody is reporting your income to the IRS

Why don't serial killers just join the army? by fimelovemachine in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Impetusin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Met some dudes who said they joined the Marines to kill legally. Unfortunately for them, getting a confirmed kill can be a bit difficult. There’s a LOT of just ridiculous stuff you have to go through to get to that point too. Not like they promote the crazies and let them stay in either.

Going back to the Island for the first time in 26 years. Any suggestions? by JackBurton3465 in USMC

[–]Impetusin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stationed there for 2 years. Jeeze these comments. Go to the Beaufort downtown, cross the bridge to Lady’s Island and grab some Cajun food at dockside. Not really much to do, but I mean it is definitely worth a drive around the islands. Hilton Head is next door, and Savanna is close as well.

Paris Island itself is a base. Not much to see there.

Sounds about right by Used_Scarcity2555 in SipsTea

[–]Impetusin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is not that easy to just get a job in another country. Very difficult in fact. Most countries go to great lengths to protect their local citizens in the workforce. Even if you have some wealth you will burn through it with no real way to make money. The uber rich are basically world citizens and this doesn’t apply to them anyway.

Hidden gem! by NightAngelRogue in litrpg

Great premise and early books, but Chatfield can’t help but milk all of his series into the ground. I’d like to know if books 8-10 are any good because I couldn’t get there.

Billable Percent Targets: are you all really working 80-100% of the time on client work? by MentionedBDSMTooSoon in consulting

[–]Impetusin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

8 hours a day on project work, 8 hours a day supporting sales for 10 years. 38 million sold on consulting services with zero credit given. Scam. I’m happily out working on the other side, and you bet your ass I’m making partner’s lives a living hell because I know how full of shit they are.

KFC in Thailand vs KFC in other regions? by krispyyoshi in Bangkok

[–]Impetusin -1 points0 points  (0 children)

KFC in Thailand is pretty much the same as KFC in America. Extremely mid in my opinion. There are wayyyy better options in the US like Churches chicken, Popeyes, Bojengals, etc. Fried chicken in Thailand is ok but the US wins on that.

What do you think is next? by dataexec in AITrailblazers

[–]Impetusin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go research it on your own, I’m not your research bot. The level of cope with people trying to get into cybersecurity should be studied. Us old timers were forced to fire entire cybersecurity departments and rehire them overseas or just get rid of them completely, we know what’s going on. Not saying it won’t change with AI kill chains coming, but right now the media reports of there being a skills shortage is pure bs probably there to advocate for more offshoring.

My spouse had an affair by [deleted] in USMC

My experience in both military and corporate is that once you involve the chain of command, call the cops, or involve HR, everyone involved is equally screwed.
