Popular Post wprime Posted November 27, 2020 Author Popular Post Share Posted November 27, 2020 I'm receiving a lot of applications (the job is advertised elsewhere too). I can't really reply to them all asking for more information (if I had an assistant I could :P). If contacting via PM, please at the very least provide the following information: - English ability such as test scores or at the very least a well written message - your education - confirmation that you have a driver's license Note this job isn't available to non-citizens (foreigners can't work as drivers). 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a friend who could cover your requirements with ease. Even ran her own construction company. But carrying your backpack on hikes? Please. Perhaps you should request a male, possibly ex soldier. She also has her own house and family, so no need to live in a 48 sq. m. studio apartment. Good luck anyway. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How ridiculous is this ?! I hope that you won;t find any slave ! What's your problem? The salary is more than double what lots of people make. I am sure some don't have a problem to carry a backpack. And it seems there also wouldn't be a problem if the new PA hires someone else to carry the backpack. Someone wants a PA who takes care of all the little things and he pays well. Sounds like a good opportunity. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldie Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 Easy to find. I will ask around on the Beach Road in Pattaya tonight. But 30k to 60k might not be enough. On a more serious note. Did you ever have such a miracle person? And even in Thailand? If you for instance find a reliable driver you will be very lucky already. And a reliable maid.

I don't think the PA has to be the maid. The PA must be able to hire a reliable maid. That's a big difference. I know at least two Thai women who would be able to do that job - but they both have well paid jobs already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First, find a Thai who speaks perfect English and the salary is already 30000 minimum, and keep dreaming that you will find one who will also clean the $hit for this salary ! People who have knowledge and experience do not work for a businessman wannabee who knows nothing about real life in Thailand ! People I know who are smart enough to do this job already get 100k/month for a very comfortable job in a big company, and you believe that it's possible to hire them for 30000 ?

Popular Post Pravda Posted November 30, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 30, 2020 I dunno about Patters, but personal assistant jobs in Bangkok start at 100k up. The OP is probably getting a lot of replies from all kinds including 7/11 staff and hookers for sure which will be pretty difficult to weed out. The problem with Thailand is that labor laws have created a demand for a very few skilled people and unfortunately these people demand a premium. I am sure you could find a Russian female personal assistant with perfect English, but hey.... it's against the law. So, now you are only stuck with Thais. Personally I showed this post to my wife who currently makes 70k, but is looking for a new job because she is "stressed" at work. Her job is basically driving around Chonburi and Ayudhaya 5 days a week maintaining a relationship with existing clients (basically chit chatting about family and life for 2 hours) and driving back to Bangkok. She told me to f off with this post. She wants to work less not more. Good luck! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIDICULOUS ! 60k + lodging and all expenses paid is ok as a starting salary for someone fulfilling most (not all) posted criteria. For fulfilling all, needs 100k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
