I agree it's just different work but we all work. And i have this discussion every day with a friend it's work ethic and some people don't have any and that's in every country!! Damn I work with a few of those people lol
I also found that when I visit the DR people assume you have a lot of money but can you blame them they don't know what it's like in Canada just as some of us don't really know what it's like to live in the DR. I only vacation but I would not pretend to say I know what it's like to live there. The only think I can truly say is I know what it's like to vacation in the DR

and I love it!!!

[Not that makes a difference because people work hard in both countries. People also work hard in the Dominican Republic. It is a different kind of work day but people with work ethic will work hard whichever country they live in....work ethic is learned....many people have it and many people dont. I just dont think you can say that dominicans dont work as hard as Canadians for their money. There are lots of very successful Dominicans that work very hard for everything they have.
You are somewhat correct in that many dominicans have a false idea of what life is like outside of the DR....we are heavily taxed, we dont get long lunch breaks because its hot out....the money doesnt go as far as one might like to think it can...it all takes adjusting.[/QUOTE]
