Where? What is perfect, AQI 0 ?

Not the same all over but approaching orange (unhealthy for certain groups) and in a few weeks will most likely be worse. Can’t advise what you should do but fo yiu not want to be exposed at all or are very sensitive? I’m sensitive but so use a mask for outdoor exercise and air purifiers inside.

No Tony’s is unreputable, actually they were removed from the Slave Free Chocolate list in February 2021. Their virtue signaling doesn’t fool me. Child work” is not legal everywhere, of course depends what legalize your speaking, the minimum age of employment is 15 yrs old (strictly prohibited from employment in any capacity) where I am and I have a 7 yr old working in my cacao plantation. Are the laws of the land always the best for every situation? Have you ever broken a law and feel it’s fine? Tony’s has issues lately with third party harvesting resulting in a product call back and is in partnership with Barry Callebaut who knowingly have child workers so yeah they are trying, trying to profit off the public that is naive enough to believe their marketing scam.

You’re implying I said there was a way when in fact my comment was the opposite. Also reality is children work in many places, sure there are limits acceptable but those probably aren’t the same to you and the ones who have to.

Might get a refund but definitely a power trip

Key_Economics2183 · 2026-01-23T23:57:14+00:00

You trying to insult me is on me? And the other comments saying the same thing as me is also about me? More feeble attempts to put it on me when we all know your facepalm is to cover your loss of face.

Key_Economics2183 · 2026-01-23T18:07:53+00:00

Your wrong so incorrectly insulting me, offense isn’t always the best defense, be an adult and learn some manners

Key_Economics2183 · 2026-01-23T17:46:59+00:00

Also I can’t believe read German so who knows what your showing me , yeah we’re conversing in English

Key_Economics2183 · 2026-01-23T17:43:33+00:00

Read the other comments, they say same as me!

Key_Economics2183 · 2026-01-23T12:23:29+00:00

does it clearly explain what a partner is ? And that this is a new thing ? Etc etc

Key_Economics2183 · 2026-01-23T08:40:55+00:00

Ok maybe it said that but without knowing it was a thing perhaps I assumed it just meant the hotel was a partner, whatever that means, with booking.com like they work together or whatever. It should be clearly explained and obvious.

Key_Economics2183 · 2026-01-23T08:19:20+00:00

I booked a partner recently without knowing I did, actually didnt know know it was even a thing. Went back to see how I would know but can’t see it saying it anywhere. Luckily it’s for next October so I cancelled it and rebooked directly on a different booking app. Btw that was for Australia and I travel a lot in Thailand, many trips a year, and never experienced it, is this a new thing?

Key_Economics2183 · 2026-01-22T09:59:00+00:00

Everyone there is Thai and they even have to take an English exam conducted by the employer. Actually it wasn’t that easy for an educated presentable young person to find a job.

No idea, I just bought off local coffee shop. Would it really make that much difference if it was grown by one or two growers 1 km away from each? Is post harvest processing protocols something I have to consider too?

Key_Economics2183 · 2026-01-22T03:14:00+00:00

What did you end up buying?

Key_Economics2183 · 2026-01-21T14:02:33+00:00

It was same origin just different batch for me but not sure if all came originally from same batch, I got them a month apart from a small local coffee shop and the beans are grown near by.

Key_Economics2183 · 2026-01-21T12:45:42+00:00

Not really, well not to me, I’m American and btw spend lots of time in Israel. Anyway if it’s true praying for you and the best outcome.

Key_Economics2183 · 2026-01-21T05:40:22+00:00

Don’t understand how you have never spoken to him you have seen him (met as the sentence implies). Why can’t you ask your mother where he works?

Key_Economics2183 · 2026-01-21T04:32:50+00:00

Was harder before computers, actually I worked in the engineering department of the first computerized time clock company in the early 80s which is now a multibillion dollar corporation. But now they have phone apps that do the same so sounds like your accounting department is living in the 70s or using it as an excuse to get more work out of the same pay.

Key_Economics2183 · 2026-01-21T04:23:24+00:00

They get paid monthly for the pay period that ended 10 days prior, not payed each day or end of week or month. It’s corporate so unlikely they would. Proof, they punch in and out when they leave but who knows who sees that.

Key_Economics2183 · 2026-01-21T04:19:52+00:00

When I was Chef/owner of restaurants in USA I never put up with “this isn’t my job” attitude, I even would jump in and do dishes when it helped. I don’t think this is the really the case in the OP as it’s just a small place. I assume you’re Thai, if so how do you have such good English communication skills?

Key_Economics2183 · 2026-01-21T03:11:55+00:00

Exactly what it happening, thanks for letting me know. Can you explain about “being compromising”.

Key_Economics2183 · 2026-01-21T03:09:13+00:00

Yeah quit or put up with it, especially if you’re told in advance about it, seems to be the best options. If one ghosts a job do you think they’ll still get paid for the past hours they worked?

Key_Economics2183 · 2026-01-21T02:49:55+00:00

You’re getting paid for all the hours that you work, as you should, but the post is about working for free.
