How do you find/place staff here? I need 2 ladies to man a food stand and not sure where to look. Is it word of mouth or are there Job agencies here? Honest, if such a creature exists. Any advice appreciated.

There might be an employment/labour office in Hua Hin. These offices have a job database where Thais come looking for a job. Database not as in computer database for the Thais to roam, but think of handwritten notes stapled to the wall. Here you can also register as an employer looking for staff. It is called Grom Laeng Ngaan (กรมแรงงาน). I said might be because it is also possible that you have to go to Prachuab Khiri Khan for this. If there is one in Hua Hin I do not know where but all Thais do. This kind of dark bureaucratic labyrinth is best navigated with the help of a Thai person as all the paper work obviously will be in Thai and do not expect the staff to speak any English. Or perhaps you can speak and read Thai.

Surely others on here can tell you where the Grom Laeng Ngaan is.
We are all living in 'the good old days' of the future.
