What's your frustration?
The most frustrating thing for me in this country is the Universal lack of saying "Thank you" after a purchase along with their obvious disdain that they are being bothered to wait on you. The only people who say thank you are the muchachos who receive a propina after carting groceries to your vehicle.
I don't live there (yet). I visit frequently and have lifelong friends there and I do have a pet Dominican peeve.
The one thing that bothers me the most about the DR is the number of homeless children. There's a whole generation of young Dominicans who are learning all the wrong things and none of the right things through no fault of their own.

Oooops. Using TOTALLY the wrong word there! Meant to say "thought process"!:nervous::ermm: ~ (GWyer mistake)

#2. Homeless children is the greater frustration.
This is your business so you need electricidad to run it. But there is no shortage of power, it is just unreliable...on purpose.
