I've never thought that living and working in a Thai environment will be this hard.
The Thais always own a special characteristic, being called เกรงใจ (Kreng-Jai). The meaning of Kreng-Jai includes being afraid of offending, lacking of self-confident/self-assurance as well as being too courteous.
Whenever one do thing wrong or making him/herself differently from others, everyone to keeps their mouths shut. But big gossips to be made as soon as the one walked off the room.
These people will never-ever try to tell others on what level of conversation-manner is the most appropiate for them, or what kind of things they don't like.
One surprised thing is the Kreng-Jai can be applied for those who have spent parts of their lives abroad. Other than a "cool acting", and trying to "speak English to (Thai) friends", these people loves to make gossiping on another....and be ready to kills other by words.
F_ck up!
