Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO.

Pineapple boy hates all the Cambodians and all the foreigners. His life must suck, if only he could get back to Scotland. :lol:
Quite the opposite is true. I am doing well thanks. Lots of new clients. How about you ? Still working for BELTEI :D
Yeah, like anyone believes you, when you all your posts constantly whine about locals and foreigners. And I've never worked for Beltei, I don't teach English.

I'm a miserable twat, but if I owned a bar and paid rent and electricity, etc. I wouldn't want a dude walking in and selling stuff in my place of business. A customer who buys a pie for $4.50 then has $4.50 less in his pocket to spend on beer and lady drinks. Also, pies are messy and smelly and are not really compatible with hostess bars. Who ends up having to throw away the boxes, napkins, forks, half eaten pies, etc.? The bar owner and his staff. It would be much less messy if the pie man were selling ballpark peanuts.

I guess the counter argument to this is "The meat pie hawker provides a convenience for your drinking customers and keeps them inside your bar drinking, when they might otherwise leave in search of pies." I don't like it though. Ban the pie man or charge him rent to do business in the bar. Percentage rent. 45 cents a pie.

Charge the flower girls rent too, it's only fair.

A decent pie is every Australians meal. Where are you selling them besides inside bars. What are the prices and types of filling ?
