I am just sick and tired of people defending the poor and low paying workers. You people have to be living here and working side by side with them to understand why these people make so less.
1st example: I am trying to mount a clinic sign in santo domingo. we are in the 4th set of guys to put up the clinic and I am about to fire them today. They seem to come, take measurements, we agree on price and all and then, nothing happens. Its an easy job yet they can't seem to do anything or deliver any job on time. They simply, shamelessly, don't call you or answer your calls. When they did try to do the job, their design was so chopo and so basic that even I could do 100 times better. Now I am on the 4th set of people who have promised stars and moon and even laughed at other people who were not able to deliver what we had agreed on. Now it seems they are on the same track. I would have to call and insult someone now.
2nd example:
Our clinic main doctora is in paris at the moment. Her personal secretary who also studies in university, needs to send an important message to the doctora via e mail. She comes to my office to have me send her an important e mail with a question asking for her authorization on some matter. Since she studies in university and I have never ever studied spanish formally, I asked her to write it on my computer. She instantly balked and insisted that I write it. I asked her if she studies in university? She said yes but I prefer you write it. I told her I don't know how to write in spanish well and simply handed over the laptop to her. As expected, she didn't even know how to put 2 words together in her own language. Her message was like this:
Doctora, es si o no?..... then she just stopped. She had no clue what to write or how to continue. At this point I took away the laptop from her and wrote a complete message to the doctora in my spanish.
So this is all they are good for: a college degree on the wall, a university ring on the finger and no knowledge of anything. They can't even write in their own language.
So tell me, why should they make more money than a person who actually did study in university and learned how to read and write and be independent in their quest to get ahead in their career? This is the difference between students from good families, who study in better universities and actually try to learn something as compared to these people who just go to university and only earn a paper in the end. This secretary has totally disappointed me. No wonder she is always yelled at by her boss. I used to feel sorry for her but now I know why the doctora loses her temper from time to time on the women here.
So the foreign women who think their poor dominican boyfriend is studying in a university and struggling to get ahead. Chances are, he will be struggling all his life without getting an inch ahead in anything.
