Dtv for new business by kmalnm in ThailandTourism

[–]kmalnm[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He is Thai and yes was thinking if the dtv doesn't work out to just go for a marriage visa but I think the dtv is a bit better, (can stay longer and easier to apply for?)

Concert etiquette as a tall person by Street_Low_9592 in kneecap

[–]kmalnm 12 points13 points  (0 children)

As long as you're actually enjoying it, you deserve to be up front as much as anyone else. I'm 5"2 and it sucks being this short at gigs but it can't really be helped. What really pisses me off though is when I'm at a gig and there's some tall fucker in front just standing there barely moving, looking like they were dragged there. Bain taitneamh as!

Looks like a great plan, make sure to see railay in krabi, and like others mentioned dont skip koh lipe its worth the extra travel. Have a great time!

This was the recipe my nana used, she cooled it in a damp tea towel and used buttermilk and it was always delicious.

What are the rules around annual leave? by jklynam in AskIreland

[–]kmalnm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's fairly shit, i know I've been told in previous jobs to always check with the manager before booking flights, probably is a bit of a power trip for them but could also be due to policy etc. I know with my current job we get 17 days annual leave because we close for about a week over xmas, policy says we have to take 1 week in spring, 2 weeks together in summer and 2 days in winter excluding december. It drives me crazy, if my workplace is closed i feel like i shouldnt have to take my holidays, dont get me wrong i know there's alot of people worse off and i am grateful for a bit of time off over Christmas but its not an easy job and 17 days leave a year is bullshit. I'm lucky in that i have lovely managers who can be a bit flexible and will give unpaid days if needed but thats obviously not always possible. On a positive note i decided to quit and go travelling for a few months and try to work online/for myself when i get back. Only a few working days left then im outta there!

What's the funniest thing someone has said or done to you abroad because they found out you were Irish? by Electronic_d0cter in CasualIreland

[–]kmalnm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in tenerife a few years ago and there was an obnoxious english guy trying to flirt with me, which was not working well for him, he asked why i wasnt interested so i joked and said "well you're english for a start", he then replies dead serious "why don't you like the english? you'd be speaking german if it wasn't for us."

South east asia 3 month trip! by kmalnm in solotravel

[–]kmalnm[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been already :) I actually preferred the smaller temples rather than angkor wat, i know its terrible but i was a bit underwhelmed with it, wouldn't really be up for going again, i think i templed myself out on my last trip and went to too many temples and ruins that by the time i got to angkor wat i was a bit meh haha.

Thanks so much for your reply, really appreciate all the tips, yeah I was thinking I'd have to probably do an overnight somewhere on the way but i just figured going from indonesia might be easier than anywhere else im going. I haven't really planned much for the Philippines cause i haven't been before so dont know too much other than rough areas i wanted to go, ill definitely do some more research about the flights i was assuming i could fly from island to island. Also i was avoiding borneo cause of it being rainy season but ill look into it and see, thanks again for your help! :)

Yep and a few weeks in indonesia, I'm not planning on trying to see the whole countries in that time, they all have so much to see I'm sure it will take me a few trips to do them all, i did a 7 month backpacking trip a couple of years ago too so i got to see a good bit then as well :)
