So I'm talking to a Haitian friend of mine in Puerta Plata and it seems that the foreman from their job just heisted the payroll of 37 million pesos which was back wages for 150 people, including my friend's 22 days of back pay. It appears the owner/operator of the site entrusted the entire payroll to one dude and it was too much temptation for him.
I had already scheduled a trip up there this Friday to see him, his wife,and one of my grandsons but this really puts a damper on the trip. It will be interesting to see if this makes the news in PP. It's unbelievable how someone could do that. I would imagine that most of the workers are Haitian and have absolutely no recourse.
