This article might make you annoyed
It might make you want to stop talking to agents
But it cannot be denied that… in the “irritation” I speak of
There are only “advantages” that make life too good to hide
.
.

  1. I hate having to meet new people every day
    Because it lets me know people from all levels
    From a university student to a hundred‑million‑baht businessman
    Those daily connections are the real expensive asset
    .

  2. I hate having to wake up late every day
    Because clients like setting contracts around 10‑11 a.m.
    No need to fight traffic to come and sign
    .

  3. I hate waiting to sign contracts in fancy cafés
    Baristas know the regular order
    Even though I’m just sitting and waiting for a witness to sign
    .

  4. I hate when the owner invites me to view a seaside hotel he wants me to sell
    Feels like a vacation not work at all
    .

  5. I hate having to sit and talk with millionaires
    Because somewhere between the talk
    They invite me to a restaurant you need a month’s reservation for
    And tell free investment ideas
    .

  6. I hate having to take calls while getting a spa massage
    But still close the deal smoothly while the masseuse presses my back
    .

  7. I hate having to hand the house key to the client
    Because each house is so beautiful I’d rather move in myself
    .

  8. I hate having to walk clients through penthouses
    How many jobs let you experience this without owning it?
    .

  9. I hate when the client says they’re ready to transfer
    So I have to cancel the travel schedule to do the contract
    .

  10. I hate when a house sells too fast
    Because I haven’t even had time to take photos to post on social media
    And it’s already sold
    .

  11. I hate that people think I’m just “lucky”
    That I got into this job without investing — catching tigers bare‑handed
    When in fact I just have full skills
    .

  12. I hate that I have to wake up and check my phone
    Because the first message of the day is a deposit transfer
    Not an overdue bill
    .

  13. I hate having to ride the client’s super car to view a house
    Having a rich person drive you is actually pretty great
    .

  14. I hate having to go to provincial sites
    Because the landowner booked a luxury hotel
    With a breakfast buffet
    Even though a mat and a tent in the forest would have been enough
    .

  15. I hate that some deals take only 15 minutes of negotiation
    And the money I get is more than some people make in a year
    .

  16. I hate when clients like to drink to celebrate after signing
    Usually I like a canned beer
    But clients like to invite me for wine
    Tastes bad to my tongue, can’t handle it
    .

  17. I hate that people think I do nothing but “pose” all day
    Because I have to create nice graphics for marketing
    .

  18. I hate when clients say “take this one”
    Because that means the commission is coming at the beginning of the month
    .

  19. I hate that whenever I plan to stay in bed all day
    Somebody cash‑buys a house and I have to get up and open it for them
    .

  20. I hate that I have to dress up well all the time
    Because my wardrobe has nothing but tailored suits, brand‑name shoes, real leather bags
    Sometimes I forget where the old T‑shirt and jeans are
    .

  21. I hate that I have to look credible
    Because I must speak fluently, smile just right
    Give advice with confidence
    The side effect is
    When I sit casually and drink an 20‑baht iced coffee by the roadside
    People still think I’m “scouting the market”
    .

  22. I hate that I have to show success every month
    Because my phone only has photos of closing deals
    Signing contracts, showing stacks of money
    Standing doing a silly face in front of the land‑department entrance
    .

  23. I hate that I have to visit new project sites
    Because each place has only good vibes, pretty decoration, nice smell
    And a set of snacks to take home every time
    .

  24. I hate when I take a photo with a client
    Because it ends up looking like I’ve succeeded in life
    .

  25. I hate when the auntie next door asks “What is your job?”
    Because I don’t know how to answer humbly
    So I say I dance for a living, move offices every day
    .
