> Did you tip your trusted taxi driver? No, you probably didn't.
This doesn't deserve a response.
One final comment:
The kind of aggressiveness that you see in airports from taxi drivers and baggage handlers is typical for TOURIST AREAS. It happens far less inside the country, and I almost never deal with it in Santiago or Santo Domingo.
The only time its a problem is when I'm catching a plane, or I'm in tourist areas. The Dominicans working there have been trained that they can do this with tourists and because the tourists are on holiday, they'll just pay the ransom rather than have their holiday disturbed.
Sami: perhaps you made too much money in college from tips?
Maybe its time to get a real job, instead of working the front desk of a hotel complaining about how much tourists give you? You may be surprised to learn that the world doesn't owe you a living.
