@ClaudeRosemondJeSca2 years ago Hello my friend and yes Patience is one thing you need here. 13
@

@purpleandred72 years ago Patience is one of the most difficult things to master, Tom. As with every challenge, it is best to walk away and think about the situation rather than spout-off and regret our actions/reactions. It is something I try to do with every challenge I face. ... 10
@

@Grayman582 years ago Great subject Tom.

@PhilippinesMyParadise2 years ago Hello again Tom, lovely Che², and R²
Everyone should follow the law, rules, and regulation of the land, any land, if they want to live happy and peacefully in the Philippines, or anywhere else, no exemption… Thanks for sharing another great video! Best regards/Ned 👏🤝👏 ... 6

@kevinandgemma77402 years ago Tom how right you are do not come to the Philippines with an attitude leave that at home it won't get you anywhere..You will experience a lot that will stress you out many times, just stay calm you are in the Philippines and it is much different from western countries. That's why Tom dyes his hair since being there has turned his hair grey .🤗👍👍 ... 10

@josephbeattie55252 years ago I am an American man. I have been here for 2 months. I am a guest of the philippine people. Its that simple 🙂 2

@kimwatt16622 years ago That is so true. So many do no have patience 4
@

@brightidea90462 years ago Well said some have a problem. Here in the Philippines 5
@

@peterallen69122 years ago Tom one of the things is patience is learned and some never learn 2
@

@johnandmariainmindanao2 years ago Good advice Tom. I try to bite my tongue until my frustration passes by and is learning not to roll my eyes lol. John is much better than I am😊😊. Great topic. If you do not have these two things, I do not think you can live here. The way they do things are very different from the west that it can drive anyone crazy without patience and understanding 👍👍 ... 3

@khatriarun46392 years ago I think the best thing is to always be nice 2
@

@bestfriend74142 years ago Patience is something I fight with every day
@

@Last_day_events2 years ago This is a very frustrating country not only for foreigners but Filipino's. Many have told me how frustrated they are. This is one of the reasons Filipinos become OFW's for life. They don't want to come back and deal with the frustrations.
It can also raise your stress levels.
I suspect this was not the only frustration he experienced that day.
But the longer you are here, the lower your expectations are. ... 2
@

@samanthafreder81242 years ago Well said Tom yep to many have no or little patience there 2
@

@gilbs722 years ago Thanks for being fair about this. I'm Filipino, and this also happened to me. I waited several days to get my card back (then a couple more days since I was too busy myself). I think it's for security reasons. If everyone knows it's not easy for banks to open ATMs and vaults, it acts as deterrent for criminals. And so the guys who handle the key can't be baited to come in just anytime (it has to happen when the caller isn't there anymore). We can't afford the sophisticated security and police that Americans have. ... 2

@marzlifestylesari-saristor95602 years ago hello hello...sir Tom yes we need to have a patience’s, in very things, great video.👍 1
@

@jmd44492 years ago Yes Tom some of us Filipinos understand that kind of frustration because we also experience the same once in a while and mind you, foreigners are even usually in a better position in that situation than us Filipinos. It's the show of higher level of courtesy given to you than us. But definitely anyone who makes a scene will have it worse coming his way.
A friend of mine once told me, and I realized and never forget it, he said CASH IS KING. Anywhere at any given time. And it makes sense. You want to avoid anything unpleasant while going around, securely carry sufficient cash. ... 1

@

@hongisland30162 years ago Can't believe the guy couldn't just calm down or walk away and come back.
Glad the guy wasn't treated badly at the station.
If that happened in US probably be taken away in a ruff way. 1

@theotheronetoknow58282 years ago I don't mind the roosters, haha. One time getting my visa renewed some "guy" came in talking loudly on his phone and then talking to the clerk telling him he needed to do something and he "thought" different, well. Don't think you are on a level Higher than anybody else and everybody else has to bow to you. ... 1

@

@jasonjames42542 years ago Well... I've got about as much patience and understanding as Will Smith at the Academy Awards. I would like to order a 90-day supply of Dr. Tom's Chill Pills before I return to the Philippines. Do you have any left? Or are they still out of stock due to high demand? 🤣 ...

@garyt72322 years ago Why didn't he let his pinoy wife take care of it? I shake my head whenever I hear a story like that. He is not in the States. He is a guest of The Philippines. Their country - their rules/customs. Can't accept it then live somewhere else. ... 1
