Some folks just cant be themselves and be honest.

It is great to meet expats and i really enjoy it but what surely irritates most all honest Expats is meeting these guys who all think they ran the Military, was top secret, and was super wealthy in their native country but now live check to check in a 3rd world Country.lol    Come on guys just be who you are,  it makes no difference what u did or who you were but all that counts is who you are now.   I got to the point i dont even mention what i did either in Military or  in business unless it comes up after knowing someone.  I have met enough CEO's  and so on that the whole US of CEO's must come to the Phils  and want to live on 1,000 a month. lol   In Vietnam i worked as a Marine Recon ranger so i usually can pick out the bullshitters fast ala Military.  So many got to be a hero in his own mind, there are not  too many of us normal guys around i guess.  lol   I loved the guy who called himself also an auto professional, i never had mentioned i was in that business all my life for work and hobby. He said he has codes in his car so i offered him to use my scanner to find out what they were,  he went into such a fast reverse of stuttering i found it hard to stay composed. The most basic of tools nowadays this top car man forgot how to use as he said.    Hey i  just dont see why people cant just be honest and dependable fellow Expats. but there are some who just dont get it.   Done venting. lol
