Don't feel special.
They did all of El Choco the same way and I kept waiting for them to come back and finish it with asphalt and they never did. Fell apart in two months, and, just like you said, thousands of basketball sized holes all over the road. Spent RD$20K fixing my car in that time, welding the chasis, fixing panels that had fallen off, broken mirrors, brake lines, etc. Hell! The hood latch even broke, the hood flew up and shattered the windshield and we had to replace all that.
They just came back and patched the holes with asphalt -and- a real honest-to-God steamroller! I about drove off the road in shock seeing that. Must have been the only steamroller on the island. Then guess what? They threw stone and oil over the whole thing again. :: sigh ::
Is this just 'planned obsolescense' Dominican style? Do a job that'll last a few months so you have to keep coming back and doing it again? I have had so many plumbers and electricians to half-assed jobs like that I do my own work now. Or, is it just really stupid so-called 'engineers'?
