Everyone needs to get back on topic.
Damn those pesky gringos 😅Everyone needs to get back on topic.
I think that might work if you´re just meeting someone. Otherwise, don´t be nice or show respect to someone who´s doing fart noises in your presence. It doesnApart from posting something like "Thank you for spending your time to try to provide answers to my situation", the only other advice is:
"Go and talk with them, say/show a 'thank you' for their service, a few words in Spanish even if it's just 'Hola / Gracias' and a smile may help.
Remember: You are in their country and showing respect is the only way to gain respect.
PS. You should really get your residency papers..."
To be honest, if any adult was making those while working, I would be thinking if there's something wrong with them. Never seen that happening, so security guard doing those would perhaps make me a bit unease as well....sure, but making farting noises is.
In his first post, they said neither the owner nor the administration is stepping up to the plate.You should complain to management so they get fired. You´re probabbly not the only one who´s getting this treatment. If you´re hesitant about doing something about it, talk to other residents, your probabbly find someone with the same experience.
Hey, how come you´ve been here for such a long time, and still talk as if you were new. I remember your profile from over 10 years ago.
Good, because all of those bad marks end upon your permanent record.Sorry deleted as I was OT and didn't want to get a bad mark
They got five pages of advice and other things. If it was a troll it generated a good discussion amongst ourselves. 😆As it is several days since his first post requesting help and he has not replied to anything, I should think our advice is for nought.
It reminds me of an OT about if there were any active serial killers in the DR.They got five pages of advice and other things. If it was a troll it generated a good discussion amongst ourselves. 😆
The rare times I have been called gringo, it felt snarky. Usually they call me rubio.I understand what you're trying to say, but I don't think it is the same thing. The terms you give in your example are obviously meant by the person using them as an insult and to put themselves in a position over the one being insulted. Same goes for so many similar slurs we all know that are used against various races or categories of people. I don't think people here use "gringo" as an insult, but more of a description...same as when my lady friend's family refer to others in the family as "la gorda" or "la flaca". But, if the one being referred to is insulted, they need to let the ones using it know. On the other end of the spectrum would be the derogatory terms used for Haitians...obviously meant as an insult and to put the user in a higher position (in their own mind).
How did you delete it?Sorry deleted as I was OT and didn't want to get a bad mark
My wife has a cousin they call Gringo. Doesn't bother him at all. I don't recall anyone calling me it to my face but I know I have been referred to as a Gringo. I don't think it is used too much here in Jarabacoa where there are lots of white Dominicans.The rare times I have been called gringo, it felt snarky. Usually they call me rubio.
How did you delete it?
Sexual assault, assault, all by security guards.Wow !! Man I live a boring life.
Too sad. I don't like confrontation and talking down to working people.I don't like hors d'oeuvres very much, it's what life on the other side looks like.
