I thought this was the land of smiles!

I thought Thais like to smile. This is what I've seen on travel brochures. Come visit the land of smiles! Well it's not all sunshine and roses fellas,

I was in Amazon Coffee yesterday purchasing a cappuccino for my girlfriend and I. The girl serving us had a sourpuss on her face. No smiles. Nothing.

She then slammed our coffees on the table, and gave me a smirk. If I wanted sh*tty service I'd go back to America. Obviously, I have met some wonderful Thais. The sour pusses are the people that I tend to remember though.

Do you guys agree, or do you think it's just my imagination?

Even in Thailand it is possible for 1 out of 63,000,000 to have a bad day now and then

That's true. I guess I should just let it go.

Still it just wasn't this girl. I've had rude service when I was shopping in the Bangkok Mall last week.

Maybe Thais are truly becoming more westernized? :(

When I was in South Korea the service was normally outstanding, Much better than what I've experienced in Thailand so far.

I'm being honest. I didn't have an attitude. I must of said thank you at least 3 times. Yes, she spoke English so she knew what I was saying.

I'm just going to chalk it up to having a bad day.

Despite the official figures, the Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs suggests that with unregistered individuals added to the final total, the Thailand population in 2014 is actually nearer 70 million. It's estimated there are 2.2 million illegal and legal migrants in Thailand, including many expatriates from developed countries like the United States.

tourists are not permanent inhabitants nor are they all in the country at the same time. after you familiarize yourself with google, may I suggest trying a dictionary?
