Tops Market in Buriram is where the Turkey was ordered that my store expat manager enjoyed on Thanksgiving.

The turkeys they have are left over from last year...........Last Year Turkeys were costing 150 baht/kilo..........This year the same bird is costing 650baht/kilo.That is why the 3 they have there are likely to stay there.If he was willing to waste his money ,just to have a 'turkey 'for Thanksgiving,It looks like you are overpaying him!!

I don't quite understand about leftover Turkeys from Tops in Buriram, as last years left overs as Tops was only opened a few months ago.

Tops is a nationwide chain having a Central Warehouse....There have been no Turkeys imported into Thailand since end of May/Beginning of June.

If your talkings about Bob, then he IMO deserves it, even on his day off he answers his phone and follows up right the next working day. And is he not allowed to buy himself a treat, or is that forbidden ?

You appear to have missed the point and the humour.

Regardless of how someone performs in their job, who would really want to pay that sort of money for something that has been in a freezer for a year or so?

I would imagine that they would deserve better.

Reminds me of the joke about monks that were allowed to speak once a year. Year one: the porridge is too lumpy. Year two: there is too much salt in the porridge. Year three: I want to leave this place. Why? I am fed up with this constant moaning about the porridge.

Heard that the Villa Market in Patts has frozen turkeys.  Coco, can you check it out for us?
